				 Re: Star Trek:  TOS 
 Recently rewatched the whole series. I was surprised there were a few I hadn't seen. Some strange episodes that weren't rerun very often. "Friday's Child" - Star Fleet officer killing a Klingon...

				 Re: Tatuaje Negociant Monopole 2017 
 Thanks guys, Tom - Hope to be there next year (or anywhere), but don't expect me to wax poetic about a cigar at a herf. I'm usually too busy enjoying the ambience (and avoiding you).

				 Tatuaje Negociant Monopole 2017 
 Bought this at a Pete event in nearby Akron 4.5 years ago. Supposed to be like a wine negociant label. It is quite tasty with a creamy, nutty taste and notes of dry decaying wood with hints of fruit,...

				 Re: Black spots on hartflet beads.  HELP!!# 
 I sprayed distilled water on mine, but over wet them and shook the excess off. That's a no-no too. It changes the humidifying % and lead to those same black spot mold.

				 Re: Black spots on hartflet beads.  HELP!!# 
 I'm not an expert, but I'd say it's time to get new beads. Perhaps you kept them too moist. I did that since I didn't want to keep rehumidifying them as often and that happened to me too. I wouldn't...

 Possibly, I've been the last few years. I'll let you know when I'm in town.
 
 After a head spinning weekend of house hunting, we are under contract for a home in Heath. Looking forward to getting...

 That's right, I'm leaving super, sunny, southern California for cold, wet and gloomy Newark, Ohio (not to mention hot and humid). I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA, still have family in Michigan and...

 Not really, but I live 5 miles from there. Unfortunately, I am going out of town this weekend and don't have any time tonight. Maxamar in Orange is 30 minutes away and worth checking out.

				 Re: Tatuaje Black Corona Gorda 
 I smoked two - the first was easily better than the original on release, in my opinion. The second was not. How's that for being non-informative.
 
 I did find the taste similar to the original, but...

 Supposedly, it's hard to tell the difference between them and calamari when they're fried (except for the tentacles).

				 Re: Donnie Darko 
 The director's cut includes a lot of deleted scenes that include parts of the book on time travel that explains a lot of what was going on. Well worth watching, it takes the film to a new level.

				 Re: Crowned Heads JD Howard Reserve 
 They are out now. I had one and loved it, looking forward to smoking the rest of the sampler. Nice to have a great "regular" release and not something you have to hunt down.

				 Re: Lanceros 
 Illusione Holy Lances were one of my favorites, but for some reason I haven't smoked one in a while. Time to remedy that situation tonight!

 According to Dion, the blend didn't change, just the band. That being said, that dark wrapper doesn't look anything like the older mks I've seen. (I'll check mine). So is the new band release just...
