I had the grand fortune of being blessed with smoking fresh-rolled Padron 64s & 26s while with the Padron family in Nicaragua last weekend. I must have smoked 8 cigars a day! LOL
Not terrified of flying per se, but terribly uncomfortable. I'd much rather be on the ground. That said, Zanax is a miracle drug for me when flying. I remember I took one while taxi'ing and without waiting for it to take effect, within 10 minutes taking another one (turbulence! lol). I...
Others:
Capone - With Ben Gazzara & Sylvester Stallone
Hoodlum - Laurence Fishburne as Ellsworth "Bumpy" Johnson
A Bronx Tale - Takes place in the 50's & 60's
Donnie Brasco - Takes place in the 70's
Is it useful?
Hmm... Yes and no. It seems to work really well for keeping the smoke off of your clothes however, the smoke ultimately ends up in your hair.
I'd try and perform an experiment for you but it would be a flawed one because if I asked someone to "sniff" me for cigar smell...
Why, "Commando" of course! lol
In all seriousness though, I've been contemplating one for awhile now. I'm torn on which color - camel or black. Was one color more common than the other in the Golden Era?
I'm now looking at the Brooks Bros. trench - Thanks Miles!
As promised:
Obviously, without me showing the details you can't see them, but there is a chest pocket, 2 waist pockets (all with piping), an internal chest pocket, and 2 cigar pockets.
Glad to have found this thread!
I feel your pain - finding quality smoking jackets was a difficult journey for me. I own a private Cigar Club here in Seattle (very "Speakeasy" like) and one of the member benefits is a custom tailored, velvet smoking jacket. And I'm talking top-shelf design...
Believe it or not, my FIRST Gin & Tonic!
I'm a dry Gin martini kind of guy but never tried a G n' T until last night - Spectacular drink!! Bombay Sapphire, Schweppes, and a squeeze of lime (I ran the lime around lip of the glass as well for a nice touch). Too bad I didn't discover this...
That makes me think of Cincinnati-style "chili". Its definately drier and has cinnamon in it - not like the Tex Mex chili we're all used to.
FWIW, I found a great recipe online awhile back for Cincinnati-style chili (basically a rip off of Skyline Chili) and it turned out amazing! I've made...
I too, can vouch for the quality of Xikar accessories. And the best part is that they carry a lifetime warranty so that if your lighter ever stops working the way it should, or if the blades on your cutter ever dull, simply send it back and they'll take care of it for you. Their customer...
