Re: What Am I Missing Out On...

Re: AF Hemingway between the lines
After many years on the hunt, (long story) I finally acquired a BTL and I fired it up last evening.

Re: My Cuban Wheel review
Thanks for the sample in my July lottery winnings, Bill. Thanks to you I can say I've tried one of these.
The flavors were of baked goods; reminded me somewhat of biscotti, with almond and...

Re: (NHC) Surrogates Cigars Bone Crusher
Tried one of these last night, thanks to EricF, a great brother.
