    Suggest One for a VaPer First-timer

    I agree with the Elizabethan as the BM is probably not a beginners blend and the Acadian VaPer is something in my opinion that you will enjoy much more after you are introduced to that genre. Enjoy!

    Wanderings In My Cellar

    Ice cellar for sure and those labs are beautiful too! I had a yellow and black lab that were awesome. They hunted with me, swam with me, fished with me and even slept in my bed. Had to put my black lab to rest nearly three years ago at 12 years old due to cancer and had to put my yellow lab to...

    Implants Update

    Best wishes on the implants. My wife had to have one done with the long process a few years ago. She only got the bone graft and said fvck the rest since it is in the back. On the other hand, I went to a periodontist and he extracted the tooth, did the bone graft and set the post all in one...

    Back Surgery Thursday Can't Smoke

    I had a microdisectomy on L5/S1 in December of 2017 after fighting the pain for about 9 months. It took some time, but I feel much better now. Best wishes!

    Pipe Tobacco in Norway

    Not sure about pipe tobacco, but Workman is correct about the $20 for a pack of cigarettes. They even sell 10 packs of cigarettes for $10. I visited the tobacco shop in Bergen and cigars were about 4 times the cost of cigars in duty free in Amsterdam. Their hours were very limited and they sell...

    A Warm Hello from Tropical Malaysia!

    Howdy and welcome! I have spent some time in Malaysia, mostly on the west side in Kemmaman and Kuantan. Never found a tobacco shop while I was there other than a small retailer in the zkuantan mall and they only had a few cigars that were very expensive.

    Dash Cams

    I bought a few of them from Groupon a while back. They don’t last long in the Texas heat, maybe a couple of months in the summer. The one accident that I was involved in where it would have helped, the bastard did not work.... I did catch my manager in a lie at work on one and took him and the...

    Big Neck? Anyone Else?

    6’3”, 305 lbs here. 19” neck, was 19.5” when I as up to 330. That made it very difficult to find an off the shelf shirt that did not fit my neck and long arms and not look like a tent on my torso. Robert Graham shirts seem to fit well in the tall sizes, but they are a bit pricey. I spend most of...

Like many have said p, it makes great dressings, sauces and so on. I have found mixing the strawberry or blueberry with sprite or plain water and...
