  • 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.

    Sinus trouble from Cigars?

    I find it to be a result of retrohaling - pushing smoke out through my nose. It's nice to do in extreem moderation as you get more flavor & more of a nic punch. But if done in excess, like during the whole cigar & everytime you smoke, the smoke will irritate the delicate tissue of the sinuses...

    Palio quality question

    Just got done smoking the Esencia AngryBill sent me - Wow! (ps- I did cut it with the brand new Palio... Perfect!) See AngyBill's review on it - spot on! I've heard they come from the same factory as Dion's smokes. I believe that, because it definitely had an Illusione meets Cruzado...

    Can kumar not smoke til' Saturday?

    I'll bet a fiver that you can't make it 48 hours. Starting 5am est. 1/12/09. So you can smoke 20 cigars in a single sitting? ...What's Chris Rock say? "You can drive a car with yo feet - that don't make it a good fukin ideya..!" And what's this business with splenda?

    Fitness protocols

    Thank you for the report Josh! My plan is to start Monday - I have my first 'appointment' at the gym in the evening. I'm undecided if I'm looking forward to it or not. I have a plan & a start and I know that I'll be more motivated once I see some results. God know's I need a better...

    Little Dan O'Brian - what an afternoon treat! After dinner & kid's bedtime (sleepover tonight), the wife lit a Perdomo Patriarch Maduro PL while I opened my box of El Triunfador and grabbed one from the middle. God I love these. Every last sip was delicious. Okay.. Pancakes, coffee &...

    1940's 'Little Dan O'Brian'

    Today I put to flame an oldie, but goodie... Circa 1940's Little Dan O'Brian, Buffalo, NY. The clip was dry, but held together & drew a little tight, this would lighten up significantly in short order. The initial tastes were a bit dry, lemon & pepper bit in the first few pulls. Tight...

    Carlos Torano Tribute 08

    Had one of these about two weeks ago - Great stick, I really want to get some more. Had a dark-chocolate taste that kept reappearing throughout. Atlantic has some of these... well worth it.

    Let me introduce myself w/ pics.

    I've seen some of your work before, I think it's incredible! Question - do you make your ashtrays with a glass insert in mind, so that the beauty of the wood can be preserved? If so, do you recomend a particular source or is it standarized? Keep at it bro - looks awesome!
