    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Last night was my second Obelisco from La Gloria Cubana. A real change from the serie r and n. The most Cuban like ash I've seen not on a Cuban. Their effort to approximate a cigar from the little island goes right down to the label. Something about the hue of the gold and red and the texture...

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    Good guess AET but.... The early RCA cordless remotes had a couple toggle like switches that would make a loud click when you operated them. They would sort of strum a bar that would turn it off/on and change channels. Flicking the teeth on a plastic comb would make it jump channels. I know...

    I've mentioned it before but most of us have forgotten why the T.V. remote is called a "clicker". Tom D.

    Cigar Question

    If you burn your lips or fingers it is probably wrong. The exception would be a cigar so good you can't bear to put it out. if you enjoyed a good cigar then you did it right. There are a lot of cigar review sites that will give "savoring" tips or you can try to glean them from the individual...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    The pastrami turned out pretty darn good. Brisket was a little dry. I should have gotten a better cut and done more mopping. Three smokers three personalities also. Add an Oliva V double Robusto to the cigar list. It was a very long day.:D Tom D.

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    By your avatar I would have guessed beer geek over cork dork.:cheers1: That's what I get for jumping to conclusions. Maybe you can help me on this. Do CA vineyards (I know it generalizing) rely so heavily on oak to give it that "California" signature taste or is there a deeper reason like...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Helix Connecticut. It was a Connecticut wrapper with nothing inside. Waste of a perfectly good match. Maybe if I was playing a round of golf? Tom D.

    Art Fawcett VS Hall of Fame

    I'm with you on the blue smoke Bart. The added bonus is it almost feels like a light weight felt. Very accommodating when creasing. My first was blue smoke but it's not like I wouldn't have gotten around to it in a later choice. My VS's are 1 through 4 in head time with never a regret in felt...

    Cooking in the Golden Era

    "The American Woman's Cookbook" is readily available on the bay. It was revised and reissued from 1927 on into the early 70's at least. Everything from rendering fat to "entertaining without a maid". Lots of creamed vegetables of course the later editions were very heavy on sweet's and...

    The Streetcar/Trolley/Tram/Electric Railway Thread

    Philadelphia has retro fitted several PCC cars with air conditioning. The old P&W Norristown Line was changed over to contemporary cars several years ago but the windows (of course) don't open and the joy of a night ride through the country with Honeysuckle blooming is lost. Tom D.
