    Where to Go Next?

    Jar a bunch and let it rest. It gets richer and smoother. You can also stove it. Low temp cooking it then jar it up for a month. It does some interesting changes. Look up stoving in this forum, you’ll find a bunch of how to’s. I did it with LBF and it came out great. Fun experiment. Good...

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Cavalier Black ll. First one, it’s starting out very nice. Rich maduro goodness, San Andreas wrapper. Must give a shout out to my local Cigar shop, Cigars Daily, just handed it to me last week while I was having a cigar in the lounge. They are as cool I. Real life as they are on the show...

    Part Of My Collection

    I love the art of restoration, well done. I am not very handy, too impatient. Here’s A few very amateur restores, mostly estates that someone else cleaned up professionally and 1 commission.

    Help With Navy And Other Spirit Infused Blends

    How about Black Frigate, rum style navy blend with Latakia.i love it, great smoke. Sextant is great stuff. Love MacBaren Navy Flake with a little age and pack it, dry overnight. Don’t worry about ghosting with these types of navy blends. As you mentioned above Blockade Runner, I believe...

    Hoarders TV

    So true. I love American Pickers. In a fantasy world, that’s me. I do nothing remotely close to it, but I love that show and cool old stuff. Yes, there are some fine lines between hoarders and some collectors.

    What Cigar Are You Smoking? 2025

    Diesel Vintage Maduro. After 4 months in the humidor, still too strong for me. I’m not sure what it is, but it chokes me out. I like the flavors, but spice in the throat kills me. I like bold stuff but this one, not sure…it’s very sharp. Quality is great, but might just be a few components...

    Any active athletes here?

    The ”Kit” riding shorts or bibs are necessary for the form fitting padding in them, a chamois pad. It absorbs sweat, pads your sit bones, and allows you to ride for hours in comfort. It’s just something you have to take on as part of the sport. I am not as flattered by the look as I once was...

    Any active athletes here?

    I’m pretty sure I mentioned it before, but I have the same WarBird. I love that bike. Lots of desert around here. Tons of trails and gravel road. I can’t bring myself to ride the trainer. I used to love my rollers though, if I had to ride indoors.
