• BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

    Cigar Molds Thread

    So I'm going to try adding a few layers of newspapers to my bound stogie, in concert with my mold, to make a smaller ring gauge. I'm sure I'm not the first to do this, have you guys seen this done before?

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    Haven't had one of these in a long time. It used to be my only box purchase. While it's a nice smoke with some spice, its not a box purchase for me anymore...

    I'm enjoying it. It's a refreshing perspective on the markets and stock selection from an angle I haven't approached before. Plus I've got this cool new bookmark...

    Today's Smoke (2004-2022 Archive)

    My first Four Kicks. The first inch has been tasty, thick smoke producing, perfect drawing, smoking bliss. It matches nicely with my Buffalo Trace and water too.

    Place to start

    Are those side burns, or the hair coming out of his ears?

    Tried out an AF I'd not seen before, the Special Selection. Not bad for a $5 smoke.

    What are you reading

    I enjoy a variety and bounce between subjects. Right now I'm reading "One Up on Wall Street" by Peter Lynch. It's pretty interesting if you like stock market related stuff. I also just got "A Founder's Son" which is about Abraham Lincoln. I'm looking forward to reading about his thought...

    A Fuente (Best Seller) like I've never seen before: Touched it up and it burned fine for the rest of the ride. It may be my imagination but I thought the Short Story had more flavor than this vitola. It was still good...

    Do you smoke in your vehicle?

    Twice daily, a short smoke on the way to work, then a longer one on the ride home. My ash goes mostly out the window. Depending on how fast I'm going, I adjust which part of the window I ash from. I've also found that whatever goes out my front window comes in my back window so I cracking the...
