@grateful1 put it pretty succinctly, but hit the nail on the head. I've been smoking cigars semi-regularly for 25+ years and I have never once tasted any of the flavor notes that I read in reviews. I try a lot of different sticks. Back in the day, if I liked one I would stick the ring in my...

I got one box of BV's a couple years ago and they all had a super tight draw. I must have been the outlier because all of the other reviews for those were generally positive. Although this thread has got me wanting to pick up a bundle of the Toasty Jones to refill my golf cigar stash. I just...

I just checked and the oldest one showing up for me is from October 2009. I've been here since 2004, so I figure I'm missing some older than 2009.

That's great! It's been my experience with CAP inspectors that they don't feel they have done their job until they find something they can call a deficiency, so they ding you on something that is technically within the regulations.

What is the minimum character limit for individual words when trying to use the search function? For example, I just ordered a box of a CAO blend I'd never had before (CAO Nicaragua, it was on clearance) and before I bought it I was trying to search here to see if anyone had done a previous...

CLIA inspection?

Very cool! I got to sit 3rd row for one of his shows in Indiana a couple of years ago.

KWS is my favorite living guitarist. I think I've seen him 5 or 6 times. He puts on a phenomenal show.

I put Stapleton's version slightly ahead of Whitney Houston's because the version of Whitney's anthem that was heard on TV was pre-recorded. Supposedly she also sang it live, but you only heard that if you were in the stadium...

I already snuck in and unlocked the back door. Y'all come on in.

Happy Birthday Ray!

My Dad took me to my very first concert when I was 14. It was Lynyrd Skynyrd in Chattanooga, TN. One of the opening acts was a very young (18 or 19) Kenny Wayne Shepherd. I had been playing guitar for a few months at that point and had seen him in some of the guitar magazines, but I'd never...

I received a message that John Crowder - known here as @KayakinBoy - passed away unexpectedly a couple of days ago. I know he hasn't been around here recently, but I'm sure that some of the guys that have been around for a while will remember him. I first met John in December of 2004. He came...
