• 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.

    Smoke Rings anybody?

    I hate people who can blow smoke rings. Mainly because I can't. :grin:

    To twirl or not to twirl...

    It's not something I do constantly, but yeah, I rotate my cigar while drawing every now and then. Mainly though, I just rotate it between puffs...pretty much unconsciously.

    Where is your next tee time?

    Gator/Panther 9's today at Silver Dollar. Good thing I was playing alone. Worst round of golf I've shot in as long as I can remember. And the pouring rain starting around hole 2 and through 12 didn't help. Ugly, ugly, ugly. But hey, it's golf...I'll be back.

    What's your Golf Ball of choice?

    I don't throw 3-4 cigars in a bucket of water for every one I smoke. ;)

    What's your Golf Ball of choice?

    Whatever I can afford at the time. I have a bunch of second-hand balls in the bag right now. Plenty of Titleists, but I certainly didn't pay for them new. I don't play enough to drop that kind of cash on balls. I hope to change that soon though.

    Programmable Thermostats

    Just checked the brand: RiteTemp. Pretty much exactly what Mcroom describes above, with a battery.

    Prayers needed

    Prayers sent. I hope all turns out well.

    Programmable Thermostats

    I don't know what kind I have, but I just picked one up at Home Depot. They had probably 5-6 to choose from. If I were looking for one now, I would probably look for one of the new ones that can be controlled over the internet (I think Schlage is the commercial I'm thinking of). Of course I...

    Golfers: phone Apps?

    I recommend it. The only thing that is a problem, and I've recently emailed them suggesting they jump on this, is that their LITE version does not have any way for you to test out the GPS function. You have to pay for the app if you want to try it. Considering the fact that you can try other...

    Have room for 1 player Friday at Black Gold in Yorba Linda, CA at 1:17

    Still have another chance tonight, lol. I'm not holding my breath though. You guys hit 'em long and straight, have a ball.

    Golfers: phone Apps?

    Yeah, I know the $39.99/year is reasonable, I just HATE paying an annual fee. Especially since my golf game has been extremely erratic over the years (as to whether or not I'm playing). I'm getting back into the game now that my Father moved to Florida and I can play with him on a fairly...

    Golfers: phone Apps?

    I'm curious what apps the golfers on here use. I've used GolfLogix (loved it, but won't pay yearly) and GolfShot for GPS, scoring and statistics. I love GolfShot. Great App that works well. I only have two minor critiques so far. First that they don't currently have shot tracking linked to...

    No such luck! LOL. You guys have fun.

    I'll let you know tomorrow if I win the Lottery tonight. ;) Sounds like a blast.

    How do you take your beads?

    Just about every which way from Sunday. I have them in bags, in tubes (the old plastic single cigar size ones and the newer larger tubes), in Cigarmony's Pucks, and even in an old rectangular foam humidifier converted to hold beads. I've bought most bulk to save, but I've bought a few as...

    Cigar beads causing high RH

    Keep us posted on your experiment. That just sounds way off to me. I don't see any reason why the beads should have dumped enough moisture into the air to bring the RH from 50-55% to 75%. The only thing I can come up with, and this is just guess work on my part as I'm not a scientist and...

    Wishlist - Rums / Bourbons

    My two standby's for Bourbon are Knob Creek and George T. Stagg. I tend to prefer the "bite" of rye based Bourbons, but I also love Van Winkle 12yr -Lot B and William Larue Weller (neither is cheap, but Lot B is a value at ~$40) on the Wheat side. Unfortunately, I have neither of the last two...

    Cigar beads causing high RH

    Thanks Cyclops. That looks about right to me as well, though the 2 ounces of beads is really sufficient for quite a bit more than the 700 cubic inches, it's not like you dumped in a ton more than needed. I'm afraid I don't have much more advice or info than I've offered above. I would suggest...
