Soft shell jackets are a water resistant, usually insulated layer. They breathe better than fully waterproof shells (hard shells) and are great for layering under a hardshell jacket in cold weather.

Arc'teryx makes some great jackets. Another brand to check out is Mountain Hardwear, i really like their gear.

wow.

I am not a huge IPA drinker, but there are a few i like, including the DFH beers. Founders brewery out of Michigan makes a 12% IPA called the Devil Dancer, which is definitely worth trying. My current favorite beers are: (this changes about every month) Left Hand Milk Stout Founders Porter Bell's Porter Rogue Dead Guy Ale Stone Smoked Porter Mac and Jacks (which i cant get, since its pretty much only available in the upper northwest around Seattle) Goose Island Nut Brown Ale

I havent been smoking a lot of CCs lately, but this Mag 50 (not sure on the box date) im smoking now is excellent!

huh.....im not going to lie, thats one of the oddest cigar related things ive seen. I dont think ill be trying that anytime soon.

Congrats! Enjoy the Sir Winnie

To be honest, Dips have never really done much for me. I cant really say what it is about them that i dont like, i just never remember being wowed by any of them...

Working, and hopefully smoking a few cigars and having a few beers. I just picked up the Bell's Octoberfest and am loving it!

Thats so stupid...Ive been out of college for about a year and half now and am STILL looking for a job, but thats not the universitie's fault.

Work, friday, saturday and sunday. Hopefully ill sneak in a few cigars at some point.

Im smoking one of these now for my birthday cigar and am really enjoying it! This one isnt really showing any signs of youth and is very flavorful. Im not even a fan of Cuaba and am really liking this! Ken was dead on by saying these dont taste like your usual Cuaba, they are actually good!

There they go again, bickering like an old married couple

licking the cigar before you smoke it. There is a guy at my local that licks his entire cigar before smoking it. Ick. In a cigar shop, putting the foot of the cigar to your nose. I dont want to smoke something that has touched the end of some other persons nose!

Nice reviews! The review on the Monte surprised me, as well as how much the Pepin lancero sucked! I havent had the blue label lancero, but ive had a few of the other Lanceros Pepin blends and have loved them.
