    Thoughts on P&C Aside; Any of the Match Blends....

    Hey, Sloopy... The Match blends, by Sutliff, are brilliant! I have large quantities on hand at all times, in particular: Briggs Mixture, Holiday Mixture, Bourbon Street, Revelation, Ready Rubbed Match, Sugar Barrel, and Country Doctor. If you like burley, the true king of tobacco, and classic...

    Greetings from Austin

    Welcome, Jon! Every time someone says Austin, I hear Gary P. Nunn singing, "I want to go home with the armilidillos..." Cheers, Chili

    What are You Listening To? ~ May 2021

    Skynyrd was a staple in Atlanta in the early days. The most extraordinary place they played was called Funochios. It was a notorious hippie bar and every time Skynyrd would play there would be this really weird mixing of hippies and rockers. Not to rub it in, but, beers were $1.00. Cheers, Chili

    What are You Listening To? ~ May 2021

    Fun fact: A long time ago, when the Earth was young and dinosaurs roamed the land, I lived across the street from Steve Morse. The Dregs were just taking off at the time and it was a constant rip-roaring party. No air conditioning, no nonsense, and no lack of ummmm "recreational activities."...

    Hey, Sable, I have a well stocked cellar, but, the one I wish I could get my hands on is Edgeworth Slices. Cheers, Chili

    Any Linux Pros Here? (I'm Wanting To Put It On A Chromebook)

    Shanez, Personally, I would only use a Chromebook to lift a short table leg or as a door stop, however, to each his own.... :ROFLMAO: To your question, the only reason to have two operating systems on your device is because you must use both off them. If you don't need ChromeOS, I would...

    Free Office Software: Recommendations Anyone?

    Hello Jay! LibreOffice is great. I use it every day and would say that it is by far the most complete substitute for Micro$oft Office. The bonus round is that LibreOffice will read and write Micro$oft office file formats. Give it a whirl. I think you will be pleased. By the way, how goes the...

    Burley Blend Recommendations for a Novice

    Ahhhhh....Burley....The king of tobacco chosen by all true pipe smoking men. As a new burley devotee, I would recommend the following: Begin with the classics. They're mild, flavorful without being heavy aromatics, easy smoking, all day blends that won't tax your palate, your nerves, or, your...

    The Rodent Connoisseur

    Aye carramba! This is how is starts. First the sneaky little rodent scout infiltrates the cellar, samples the goodies, and scurries back to his pals with the news. Next thing you know, boom, it's a full blown invasion! There's only one thing to do. Pack your tobacco, burn down the house, and...

    What Is Your Favorite Blend Type?

    Burley, hands down. I will say it again, it is not an accident that burley and best both start with a "B." To add a little variety, burley and perique make nice partners, as demonstrated in Haunted Bookshop and Old Joe Krantz. Burley and latakia also make pleasant companions in blends like...

    Suggestions For A Good PC Game?

    There is no better game to get lost in than Dwarf Fortress. What it lacks in graphic excitement is more than made up for by excellent game play. Best of all, it is free! Check it out here: Dwarf Fortress Cheers, Chili
