    6-1/2 X ~ 44 Unbanded Suprise

    BGM?? Not quite sure what that is. I know it was close in size to a Bolivar Coronas Gigantes, but I didn't get the Bolivar flavours or strength out of it, so I passed on that one.

    6-1/2 X ~ 44 Unbanded Suprise

    With clear skies, light winds and low 70 temps after the passing of Hurricane Bill last night, it's a nice day to enjoy a smoke on the back deck working from home. I found this in the bottom of one of my humidors and have no idea when I got it, who it came from or what it is. And I feel guilty...

    Cohibas

    It's my opinion that Cohiba's are over-rated, but that's just my tastes. Some will agree, most will probably disagree. I think overpriced is one opinion that more will agree on. Shape for shape and size for size, even in Cuba, they're more expensive. I've had nearly all the Siglo line, several...

    New Cuban Cigar Export Regulations?

    Saw this on another board : Rough English translation by Google, but you get the idea: CLICKY ME for the website.

    Pipe Tobacco Storage Conditions

    This was posted by G. L. Pease. Some pretty good info here. Personally I like less than 60% for pipe tobacco when it comes to smokeability. But I find it hard to go by feel as even mid-60s it feels "crispy" to me. FWIW, I tried search and didn't see this posted here anywhere else. If your...

    Anybody else think the McAngus at McDonalds sucked?

    MackyD's = slow suicide, as do most of the other processed dead cow joints. I love my own burgers, and just about any other cow / hen / pig products prepared properly.

    Blue Cheese Stuffed Angus Burgers w/ Portabello Mushrooms

    Dayum dude, that sounds like a proper "Manbuger". I know just the guy to treat with this recipe, but of course, I'll have to do a test run first before I serve it to someone!!! Thanks for the recipe. Jim!

    Thoughts so far?

    Change?? New skin? ??? Joking. The new features are great Rod, thanks. As someone else said above, I thought I'd ended up at a wrong site first when I saw the skin, but it is what it is and the new things that make it better far outweigh the baby blue IMHO. Yup!!!

    The Pleasure of Traditional Shaving

    Wet shaver here as well for the past 3 years. Before that, I despised the daily ritual but love it now. Mantic is the Sensei of wet shaving for sure. For Noobs, look at Badger & Blade for info. Plenty of great people there and good deals to be had on anything used you need or want, plus lots of...

    Accoustic Guitar Players

    Long story short: On the way home tonight I heard this song and thought "Holy shit, I used to love that and forgot about it". Only 4 simple basic chords, great drinking / party song and you don't need to sing good because you need to be pretty drunk to do the version by the Pogues any...

    Accoustic Guitar Players

    I've been trying to learn "No Woman No Cry" and the Reggae beat is giving me fits. Was just wondering what 5 songs you enjoy playing most, either for the pure pleasure of playing alone, playing for jams or just the only player at a sing-a-long. Mine are: Wish You Were Here. Working Class...

    What cigars have you smoked that are real ass kickers?

    La Flor Coronado Double Corona. Those things make Chisels seem light by comparison.

    The Smart Car

    Not even a running back?? :whistling: I sat in one a few years back when I was 330 and even at 6'3", it was very comfy to sit in. But as someone said above, what it would be like for a entended trip of more than an hour. I heard a story last year of a girl who owned a diesel model and drove...

    Salt Testing A Savoy Digital Hygrometer

    Title & description says it all. Is there any chance of corrosion from being in that atmosphere for 24 hours?

    Used Cigar

    Thanks for the laugh Moki, I think I just wet my pants a little. Funniest thing though, was after reading the first line of your post, I thought you were serious and I thought "WTF??" True life story: I treated an uncle to his first Cuban cigar (and most likely, his first ecer decent smoke)...

    Can anyone reccomend a Canadian online store?

    Basically, you and the "Better Half" could take a weekend trip across the border to some state that has reasonable taxes (hell, they're all reasonable compared to Canada), buy 100 cigars (remember the 50 ea rule) and with what you save in Canadian taxes, you have more than paid for your little...

    Ode To A Cheap Cigar

    Lately I’ve been following the mantra of a member of this board for whom I hold great respect, even though we’ve never met in the flesh (please note this post is in no way trying to prove him right or wrong). Several months ago, he posted about cutting back the “quantity” of cigars he smokes...
