    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I'm not at all a fan of acid. They're wretched to me, but I love the Padrons. Drew Estate does make some good stuff, I just don't like acids. A while back Steve Saka sent several of us at Cigar Weekly prototypes of his Chateau Real. They were a big enough hit he produced them. They are a nice...

    Out of the Humidor: The sad demise of pipe smoking

    Altadis keeps sending me boxes of bacci, but I can't smoke but one or two blends. Most of it is just too sweet and aromatic. I like a good aromatic, but I don't like smoking candy.

    Can anyone identify the woman in this 1930s photo?

    Hmm, I dunno. [huh] Let's say for the sake of argument she prematurely aged considerably and despite her looks she was only 40 in 1937. That would today make her 111 or so. And I think 40 is far too young for the woman in that pic. So, unless she is in the Guinness Book of Record, I'd...

    The Open Road Guild

    Exactly. For whatever reason they don't list the campdraft on their site.

    Which "Indy" should I choose?

    I imagine you just call him. As to your second question, it seems full payment will do nicely to hold an order on a hat.

    Which "Indy" should I choose?

    I would be curious to know if they get these hares during certain times of the year or all year. Maybe part of the reason they only do production runs during certain periods is due to harvesting season. It is not a question for which I have an answer. I would certainly think wild animals of...

    The Evidence of Old Lovers - Keep or Destroy?

    Oh Lizzie, not the motorcycle. lol

    Which "Indy" should I choose?

    I understand your point about native, however, my point is that the hare there is different from the standard hare elsewhere. It has its own characteristics and isn't really comparable to hare raised for fur elsewhere. It is a native hare in terms of our uses regardless of how it got there. I...

    Which "Indy" should I choose?

    Well it is nitpicking and really I have to say, so what. Many wild animals in this country were not native to this land, but once brought here and bred wild for a number of years, they are wild and become a native to the land. So, I would say the wild hare is definitely different and native to...

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Anytime Pop, anytime. Bring the kids, we'll play baseball in the backyard and smoke us a shoulder.

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    I had not had a cigar in quite a while, until my trip to DC week before last. Had a nice Punch Punch and a glass of single malt. Indycop, next time you come through Nashville, let me know. We will go over to the CAO HQ for a tour and a smoke. They have a 100,000 cigar humidor in the center...

    Which "Indy" should I choose?

    Get the Fed now and order an AB for the future. He doesn't bill till he's on your order if I recall. The fed is a great hat and mine has been soaked numerous times w/o the least bit of taper. The fed is far superior ot the official hat its not even funny. Any of these hats, Akubra, AB...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today 1?

    Indy, ax the goatee and moustache for an interview. It's not a reflection on how it fits your features, but clean shaven is certainly more appropriate interview wise. You'll never hear an interviewer complain about a clean shaven face, saying dang he should really have a beard, but you could...

    Akubra Campdraft Question

    Danged it all. I have scoured these antique shops in my travels across the state and almost never found anything. In fact, only once have I found anything worthwhile.

    CONTEST: MEN ONLY: Free Framed Gee-Bee Z Airplane

    Alas I have no pics of my aviation days as they were lost to me along with about 3,000 sheets of negatives. I had worked with a music industry photographer friend for several years while in college and had amassed tons of rolls of film including 15 concerts I did for Stevie Ray Vaughan, BB...

    Akubra Campdraft Question

    I'm from Nashville and live just down the road now. As one of the few Akubra owners in the state, I'm always glad to have another. Oh and I'm not a VOL, in school terms anyway, only in state affiliation. I'm a commodore. Well one degree was anyway.

    What has happened to society?

    Indeed and I never turn down a chance at a beer and wings. I'll be in east Tennessee soon. We'll meet up for said consumption.

    What has happened to society?

    This is why conversations of such are good in my book. You see we really weren't far off from one another after all.
