Blast from the past: Table Lighter

And here is the instruction sheet from a different (but similar) model. "fill with good grade gasoline" made me laugh. -

Regular cigars can still be high end to you. My cab of 2015 Por Larranaga Petit Coronas are amongst what I consider my high end sticks. The most special cigar in my collection is the last Des Dieux from the first box of Cubans I ever bought, above all the other signficantly more expensive cigars in my collection.

I have a bunch of reward sticks that I put aside for when I managed to do a series of specific trapeze tricks. Now that my rig is closed, I'll need to reassess those goals. Monte A has become a staple at New Years Eve for me. Apart from that, I usually reach for the older/more expensive sticks if there is something to celebrate.

Two of their cigar offerings. Those bands look strangely familiar. -

Hump Day Humour: Farside

Fun fact - after this comic, the term "thagomizer" was adopted by palaeontologists as the informal anatomical term for the spike arrangment on the tail of a Stegosaurus, which previously had no distinct name. -
I bought a few singles of these earlier this year as it had been quite a while since I had one. The cigar had a firm draw, and the opening third was just crazy. Nutmeg and cloves, slightly sweetened black tea, straight black tea, pure cream, espresso martini, espresso with cream - the cigar just jumped from one to the next, sometimes lasting a few minutes before moving on, other times only lasting for a few draws. The middle third was a similar story. Salted cream, savour, light cream with spices, cream increasing in intensity. The final third was a bit of a mess and let the cig

Even in our office, I was essentially working remotely as we connect to a server in the US. Whether I do that from home or the office makes little difference. Moving forward, I won't be surprised if they make the decision not to renew our office lease this year. Unfortunately my apartment is quite small, so the working from home conditions aren't exactly ideal, but I am enjoying the commute.

Your cigar of March 2020?
MrGlass replied to El Presidente's topic in Cigars Discussion Forum "the water hole"
Vegas Robaina Don Alejandro 16 that I smoked for the Slot Machine Review Weekend on Monday. First one I've smoked in a long time, and an absolutely sensational experience. -
This cigar is from the 2017 Christmas sampler. The double corona in general has always held a very special place in my heart, as they were always my cigar of choice at the monthly social cigar nights that I took place in for the first 10 years of my cigar journey. While I don't get to smoke as many of them now as I used to, they never fail to bring back those fond memories. This particular cigar was a perfect example with a smooth, oily wrapper and a perfect draw. The cold draw was earthy with cocoa. On lighting, the cigar opened with toasted tobacco which straight away transitioned i

I kind of regret not picking this up when I was transiting through Johannesburg, but I was already at my allowance with gin. The original purple party shooter. A great tasting alcohol, caffeine and taurine party starter! 750ml 24% ALC/Vol - $10AUD

07 Cohiba Robusto with Johnnie Walker XR 21. Last year, I wrote a list of personal goals I had, and cigars assigned to those goals. Last weekend, I finally managed to hit the first two of those goals. This cigar is celebrating taking my double tuck out of safety lines on the flying trapeze. For a hobbyist flyer, this is a pretty major milestone, before you begin to factor that I did this two days before my 35th birthday. It's time to celebrate.

There is some NSFW language in there.
