    Latest PAD & TAD

    Very nice! I have a meer that's really similar. They are interesting smokes, that's for sure, my only complaint is how heavy it is - it's strictly a 'sit down' smoke :)

    First Time Smoking Without Relights

    I've found certain tobacco's I have require relights more than others. I've gotten a pretty good handle on minimizing relights though (at least from when I first began) and think it just comes with practice. There are some simple habits you can form to help keep the tobacco burning (lightly...

    Do You Have Any Christmas Traditions?

    Great traditions Jason. I think eventually as us kids got older my parents would have us open the stockings in the AM but I don't think we EVER got to open the gifts under the tree before Christmas service was over.

    Do You Have Any Christmas Traditions?

    Yeah, even up into the late 1800's this was a pretty common conception. A case can very well be made in regards to the idolatry claim and I'm not speaking in terms of the commercialism aspect but rather the importing of ancient Babylonian religion. But that's another discussion probably best...

    85 years do I dare

    That's awesome. I can't believe it still looks fresh and smells sublime... that's incredible.

    Do You Have Any Christmas Traditions?

    I can relate, withnail, although, not with the Queen's speech. Growing up, my father would make us wait until after Christmas church service to open gifts. I remember getting to church and having all my friends wearing new clothes and talking about the toys they got and asking me what I got...

    Facebook Games

    Only game I play anymore (and not nearly as frequently as I'd like) is LOTRO. I had played a couple FB games but grew tired of them quick.

    You Guys Voted, So Here It Is: My Review of Frog Morton: Original

    Great review, thanks for posting. Yup, that's how I feel about OTB and OTT so I'm happy to hear the regular is as well. I guess that may be a major part of why I enjoy them - they are good smokes no matter when you have them and if your indecisive - they're perfect. They also have that liquid...

    Can't wait to hear how you like the original. I'll be picking up a tin or two of it next month as it's next on my Frog list.

    "Why do you smoke what you don't enjoy?"

    I had no problem with English blends right from the start. I enjoy the occasional aro (moreso this time of year) but the English blends always seem to keep me most interested. I do have a few jars of some local B&M blends that I'm not a big fan of that I go back to every now and then. I guess...

    Which Frog Morton Should I Open First?

    Health Problems from smoking?

    Thank you! Anyone who wants to damn cigarettes while eating at McDonald's with any sort of frequency is, in my mind, a hypocrite.

    Beginner tobacco guidelines

    Welcome aboard and congrats on your first pipe :) When you smoke a cigar, do you prefer the flavored sweet wrapper or do you enjoy it without any flavor? Knowing that will help in the recommendations.

    Baccy food and drink pairings

    I remember the first time I realized how well flavors go together with pipe smoking. We had steak with a basil-peppercorn glaze one evening and I went out to smoke shortly afterwards. After my smoke I was sitting in my recliner thinking about how flavorful it was and it was obviously the...

    Isn't that the truth! :lol:

    Pipe and Cigar bans

    I would agree with that. I think it's certainly the right of the owner but believe it probably stems from more misinformation...
