I figured I'd give it a try. I like pinstripe-suits, so why not try a pinstripe smoke? It's a barberpole, with two wrappers. It was good. A little stronger than I normally care for, but it had a good draw and a nice leather and coffee set of notes. Brandy, Cigars, Politics...

I want to know what happened to the dedicated public employee of yesteryears...you know, the Churchills, the TR's....real he-men. Who's your favorite? People can say what they want, but Truman get's my vote! Any politican that can say stuff like this is ok in my book: "...Some day I hope to meet you. When that happens you'll need a new nose, a lot of beefsteak for black eyes, and perhaps a supporter below...." Source: ... Brandy, Cigars, Politics...

While I realize that all the General discussions are open to all, we have some sections for the Ladies and want to offer the same courtesy to the Gents.

There's a vibe in the air that vintage is cool again. Folks in here have known that all along but I keep picking up signals, a lot of it from younger folks, that it's actually ok to look back and appreciate things from yesterday. I hear kids talking Cab Calloway-speak, bands are listening to 78rpms on Victrola's while traveling on the highway, thrift stores are hip again, the ukulele is back, and growing ...

I'm trying to hone my barbecue skills this summer. Not grilling, but real, slow-cooked barbecue. I almost bought a smoker this week, but decided that my grill (with the addition of a smoker box) would be better than any of the smokers I could afford right now. Are there any other pit masters out there? I'm up for any tips you can offer. I'll start with a tip of my own. When making barbecue ... Brandy, Cigars, Politics...
