• 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 the next few weekends 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.

    CAO Mx3 Escaparate Review

    Nice! I'd be interested to see how you like the Mx2 (I found it to be a bit disjointed––an interesting first half followed by a dull and sometimes acrid "second act").

    5 Vegas Miami "M5:" Strange

    Thanks for the thread. The Padilla Miami's on my list of things to try. The B&M I frequent has some, and I'm going there tomorrow, so I might pick one up.

    5 Vegas Miami "M5:" Strange

    EDIT: The smoke was smooth, but I should clarify and say that the profile got increasingly light, which was an entirely new experience for me––a stick whose body lightened considerably across the length of the smoke. Taking into account that this is a Pepín blend, this was strange...

    5 Vegas Miami "M5:" Strange

    Just smoked a 5 Vegas Miami "M5" that was gifted to me in one of the three simultaneous bombs I received about a month ago (it was either PLUSH, funkejj, or jwyatt . . . can't remember who). I enjoyed it, but it started out in the medium-full range and then mellowed out quite a bit into...

    So who's excited for the World Cup Draw tommorow?

    Just saw the draw. Agreed. The U.S.-England match-up's gonna be a tough one. I like Group G, too: Brazil and Portugal. One of my fave teams from the past is Argentina, though (but I haven't kept up with them so I don't know how they compare to their team from a few years ago). Messi...

    So who's excited for the World Cup Draw tommorow?

    Yeah, I'm curious––the U.S. has had some pretty tough draws in the last two Cups.
