Man, can I relate to this.  That's why I'm selling off part of my cellar.  One night I figured out how much I smoke per year, took my age and how long I thought I'd live, and I've got more tobacco than I can smoke unless I live to 168!  Unfortunately, I come from a gene pool that tends to flop...

Much of the better leaf grown around Central America and the Caribbean are from Cuban seeds, I doubt the genetics have drifted much in just a few decades.  But when I was in Cuba a while back, and doing some level of research on Latin America, I believe that much of the agricultural lands have...

Santa must be getting old and a bit senile, as many of us seem to be on the good list, and I'm sure we're all not that good! I know I'm not, and I was also blessed with some wonderful gifts, including something I was really in need of at this time. Out of town at Mt. Magazine, (the highest...

I tried to send my box out the other day, but when they asked what was in the box and I told them it was  some Banana split, Cotton-candy, super-aromatic cherry cream Cavendish tobacco, I was informed that that particular blend is classified as hazardous waste and I would need to send it in...

Ebay rage! :roll: Don't we all have enough things to worry about or be afraid of in our lives? I've had a couple of less than wonderful experiences buying on Ebay, (Overpriced Dunhill that wasn't as described or pictured) but not worth fretting about.  I never thought of threatening the...

Kudos to your not over-reacting PD, it could have ended horribly. I'm also impressed at your being that coherent in the middle of the night. Even if she did use the knife (or other tool) to break in, I don't believe that that merits being blown away. Also, being bare foot in a dress, not the...

That is a beautiful pipe.  Reminds me a bit of a barbers pole. Natch

Thanks, all. And yes, BD, that is the character I modeled my life after (failed miserably). Got two days in the woods packing, but now have hell to pay for being gone. Natch

Carlos, you sound like my students!  They had all semester to write that paper, but because some "disaster" befell them the night before it was due, that should excuse them from being on time. :lol!: Just kidding, of course.  We all appreciate the effort you put into this, (and by the way, you...

But how could I keep it on a stick? Natch

Count me in.  I've got a few ounces of Banana split, Cotton-candy, super-aromatic cherry cream Cavendish that has been polluting my tobacco larder for several years now I need to get rid of. :twisted: Pity the poor sucker whose name I get. Natch

I'm kind of the opposite of this, as I usually want something slightly sweet, slightly smokey, but not too strong. Most mornings I smoke a blend I mix up (Guffy's Morning Blend I call it), and it's a constantly morphing blend based upon 1/2 latakia anything, 1/4 or more some sort of Virginia...

Yea, I used to do that too, but then I found I could whack myself upside the head a couple times with a 2 1/2 lb. ball-peen hammer and it had about the same effect! Natch

I used to date his younger sister. He was the better looking of the two. Natch

Damn! I've been canoeing for over 45 years and was a wilderness canoe guide up on Isle Royale, the Everglades, and numerous rivers in the south, but never saw anyone do that with an Old Town or old Sawyer Kevlar. I've rolled canoes on occasion, but with 400+ pounds of gear strapped in it, I...

You make me wish I still had my old MGB-GT. I got one of the last to be imported into the US back in '74 and other than the spoke wheels (which I never learned the tune correctly) and the company forgetting to put a small British mechanic in the trunk, so it would actually run, it was the most...

Teacher. I battle ignorance; and a constant and mighty foe it is! :cry:  Natch

Well, I'll certainly do my part, and help bring down the current Cuban government at the same time, by burning a small portion of their crops. :lol:  Natch

C&D Plantation Evening. Not among my favorites today, but it gave me a taste for lighter latakia blends that still pop into my rotation. Natch
