On vacation, John Grisham is by far my favourite author. Don't know why to be honest. I've read many of his books who smoking a cigar either on the beach, the balcony or in the bar in Cuba. EDIT: Except for reading a book, I like Alex's post!!!!

I can't wait to get home to see this (YouTube blocked by work FireWall). IMHO, he is one of the finest comedians out there. Talking about a Scottish accent, has anyone ever seen Robin Williams' take on the invention of the game of golf?

Great move!!! :thumbs: And Mr. Fields, your sig tag is the funniest frickin' thing i've seen in days. Thank you for that!!!!

+1!!!!! I used to work with a guy who was a Drill Sargent for a while (Marines, Army, whatever, don't remember) and he said that is the most accurate portrayal of "Boot Camp" ever. DISCLAIMER: Repeating his words and asking for opinions from the knowledgeable.

Les offered to help me out with a C-Bid auction. Deal was pretty good so he ordered a couple of 5ers of the same smokes for himself. He sends me the package, but it never shows here in Canada. My loss. Once in a while, you get caught playing this game, and it's the risk you take and we (north...

Think a Monte #2 or a Cohiba Maduro stuffed into someone's shirt pocket would nullify the "Daily Fee"?? :whistling:

I don't plan on buying many down there Jake. I will take a few with me, but if I smoke in a B&M, I believe in buying at least a couple there. I see from their site they have "decent" prices on boxes of Anejos. How that relates to singles, I don't know, but I may pick up a couple of 5ers or...

COOL, that place is in a big mall called the The Arboretum. I can take her there for a while and let her loose in the mall for 2 hours!!! Iiiiiiii think maybe I should wait to check that from my home computer!!! :sign: Google shows only 8 blocks. Well within walking distance. Thanks!!

I have to be in Austin April 14th - 16th for a conference, and circumstances allow me to bring along my wife for a mini-vacation (and quality time away from work, friends, dogs, yadda yadda), almost all on the company I work for. We're flying into Austin on the 12th, and as of right now, the...

Another Board I'm on has quite a few fountain pen collectors and a little research shows the Waterman and Pelikan suggestions stand up well in your price range, as well as MI's suggestion for the refills. I'd love to get a nice fountain pen for my wife as well (she has lovely penmanship) but...

I posted this incident on 3 different forums and all on sites, I've had responses that it IS NOT in any way related to the brand of glassware as in the Topic Title, but can happen to any clean & smooth glassware. I incorrectly assumed that because I have done this exact thing before, so many...

Quite a while ago, I bought 4 of the Assam at Target. Love using them for hot liquids that you want to sip and enjoy for a long time without it going cold, Americanos, black tea, etc. Last night before bed I was making a Chai and didn't want to boil the kettle so I just filled the glass with...

Great question. I seem to think she's been pretty quiet as to who the lucky guy is!!!! Melly, take it from a guy who's working on the 29 th anniversary that the first 20 are the hardest!!!! :sign: Gets real easy after that!! Seriously, congratulations and I'm sure you've done all you can to...

They will, my friend, they will. Unfortunately, I just got done with shoveling 6 inches of snow so it'll be a while.

Since there's a couple of more threads today about this extremely generous BOTL, I thought I'd add one more. I came home from a business trip to find a package that ......... to say the least, made my jaw drop. There's always a discussion whether a gift should trigger a retaliation or a PIF...

Wyatt, I'm in Canada, and have insurance with the bank the wife works at, so anything I say may or may not apply. When we came back from Cuba in November, we had a big wet spot in the basement carpet from a busted drain pipe in the wall. Bottom story, they couldn't do enough for us. Paid me...

In spite of your first few posts, this one's pretty good. Now that you have your foot removed from your virtual mouth, stick around and you might fit in. Welcome!!!!

Try this: Mix equal amounts of bleu cheese and cream cheese, and spread it over a steak that's almost done, push a few roasted garlic clove halves into the mixture and broil for a couple of minutes 'till the cheese browns. I've had that at the Keg on their Baseball Sirloin and occasionally do...

Knock it's horns off, wipe it's arse and walk it through the kitchen!!!! :laugh: Seriously though, for a Tenderloin, a Strip or a Rib Eye, it's kind of a sin to put anything on 'em IMHO. Every once in a while, we get great deals on eye of round and with a few dozen pokes with a fork, and then...

Drew, I've had ISOMs removed from my bags at Customs. I pleaded ignorance, claimed that they were for personal use only (I had 10 sticks) and didn't kick up any stink. So they took the cigars, and let me go with a warning and explained the laws (like I needed to know). Had I caused a rukus, I...
