    2010 Chicago Pipe Show PAD (Photo Intensive)

    Very nice. Pipe shows are great, but there will never come here to LA. I am planning to go to the Vegas show. I really want to meet the blenders.

    May 2010 - What are you smoking?

    Smoking some Peter Stokkebye Navy Flake, but I think I may be addicted to Bullseye Flake. I never saw myself settling down to one blend, but Bullseye Flake could be it.

    Sports Comments. Whatever. Let\'s Here it.

    Here in LA it's Lakers, Lakers, Lakers. I can't stand the Lakers. No class. I love my Dodgers though. LA Galaxy is doing just fine without the Great David Beckham. He never should have been announced as the savior of the MLS.

    Sports Comments. Whatever. Let\'s Here it.

    I just played golf with my oldest son, and it was sweeet. Beautiful weather. Of course, I had to let him win. Great day. Pistol, I like the Players Championship as well. My favorite tourney too. I hate that Lee Westwood fell back on the last day. Oh well.

    What English blends do you like and why?

    The 1st English blend I ever smoked was Dunhill Standard Mixture. I fell in love with that dry, salty, somewhat leathery flavor. After that I spent about 5 years smoking every English blend I could find. Now, my 2 favorites are McClelland British Woods, because of its refinement. When I want a...

    Sports Comments. Whatever. Let\'s Here it.

    My wife and 2 sons are huge Dodgers fans, and yesterday my wife and I are in Dick's sporting goods. I am picking out the wedge I want for Fathers Day. I like to plan ahead. Over the loud speaker comes: We have Chad Billingsley in the baseball department for 15 minutes. He is the Dodgers ace. My...

    Aromatics with good room notes.

    I have have found a crowd pleaser. In and around LA, that is hard to find. It is Lane MV1000. Lightly flavored, burley, and Virginia shag. I have gotten many good comments on the smell, from total strangers on the street. My wife likes it as well, which is always a plus.

    My Own Blend - what\\\'s your favorite?

    When money is tight for me. My go to mix is Lane 1Q mixed 50/50 with Prince Albert. I really like the mix, and you could hardly beat the price.

    Zippo or IMCO lighter? which one is better?

    I bought an imitation zippo at the liquor store for 3 dollars and it works like a champ. You have to learns to pull the flame instead of tilting, otherwise you taste the fluid.

    Still searching for a non chemical Aromatic

    Another of the most naturally flavoured aros was Cruise Ship. Taste like coconut. Very slight flavor. My wife said it smelled better than any blend I have ever smoked.

    Still searching for a non chemical Aromatic

    I think Solani Mystery X is probably the most naturally flavored tobaccos I've ever had. I taste much like a natural berry flavor.

    May 2010 - What are you smoking?

    Made a great discovery today. In the back of my tobacco cabinet among empty Ball jars, was a 1/4 full jar of McClelland British Woods. It was quite a treasure. In my opinion this is the English blend that most should be judged. Happy smokes.

    May 2010 - What are you smoking?

    Spent the say strolling down Ventura Blvd. in Encino, smoking 1Q in my Bjorne wherever I pleased. No complaints from anyone. It was very liberating, and relaxing.

    May 2010 - What are you smoking?

    Bought some Lane MV1000 and it is a very good golden Virginia aromatic. Not goopy at all. Good night all.

    Avocados

    When I lived in Florida, I had this couple who would bring me these huge avocados from south Florida near Homestead. That was before Andrew. I hope they faired well.
