    James Fox- Dorisco Mixture?

    I cannot say that Dorisco Mixture (Virginia, Perique) in any way smokes like Butera's Kingfisher(Virginia,Burley & Perique). While we're on the topic of James J Fox blends, The Bankers Mixture and Provost are also worth your attention. Campanile is an acquired taste, while Hibernia is almost...

    Need help cleaning pipes.

    The Latest Garbage & Lies from the Surgeon General

    Yes, the government is adept at twisting, distorting and misrepresentation of the facts..., so what else is new? There is a bit of hope in all of this mess, in that the feds have learned that the public is tired of the lies, which is currently being felt in the ranks of the Democrats. It's...

    James Fox- Dorisco Mixture?

    This blend is well represented in my cellar. It doesn't get a lot of attention, which is something I've not understood for years. It's a distinctive Virginia/Perique that smokes well and ages even better. It's a bit pricey, but worth the coin and certainly worth your time to investigate.

    Corn Cobs

    The first thing I'd consider is the source of the Cob. These guys have been in business for over 100 years and are the sole American source of the Cob. http://www.corncobpipe.com/ Knock offs out of China are to be avoided as they are inferior products of a uniquely American invention. I...

    Panty Hose

    I share the concern about the abrasive quality of the panty hose. Like most GIs, yes I've used stockings as a quick shine for dress shoes, but only once until more polish was put on the shoe. Maybe the same thing applies here and Carnuba should be applied between use of the stockings..?
