Dr Pepper to give free drink if Guns releases album, HAHAHAHA like that will ever happen

Are you freakin NUTS, Axl is the reason GnR broke up and Slash was the forefront of the best guitar playing to come out of the hair crap metal of the 80's. If it was not for Slash you can forget Sweet child o Mine ever existed and the rest of that awesome album Welcome to the jungle. Its obvious that Axl and crew cant even put out an album in a decent amount of time and to act like Slash is an outcast is total BS. Dont get me wrong, I like Axl and his talent, but he has shown again and again that he has to be in control and that is the demise to his own success. Dr Pepper YOU CAN KISS MY BUTT, you exclude Slash- Then you can exclude me and my family from buying your drink, Mr Pibb will do just fine! Guns n Roses died when the original line up left. Slash, Matt, and Duff are kickin hard With Velvet Revolver, and if you want to see a success story of a band take a look Axl, 2 YES 2 albums to date!

Don Pepin Garcia Cuban classic

Here is my review of this nice little smoke.

So far the burn is uneven and the flavor is no where to be found, quite the flavorless so far. Im not sure if this is a one off or just the way they are made, but to say that this ranks in my tops would be a mislead. Not a bad cigar, but not to good IMO.

Cao Soprano Review

Well put down your .45 and have a smoke! This one is awesome. The Soprano was magnificent, as you can see by the ash, was a very even draw. I used a bullet style cutter to really give it a nice draw, but also to the let the flavors enhance and really show character. The smoke was rich and full and as the midway point came to, the cigar took on another dimension of flavor. The coffee and cocoa really started to come out in leaps and bounds as the smoke went on. Oddly enough I enjoyed iced tea with orange juice and it went extremely well!

Linkin Park 02/26/08

This was probably my best concert I ever went to because it was my girls Christmas gift and I got to take them. I took my two beautiful girls Trudy and Maddie. The found Linkin Park on my iTunes because I have about 10,000 songs and they instantly loved them. They got new ipods and they loaded them up with all kinds of music. I am so proud of those two and was really glad I got to share thier very first ever concert with them~ and it was thier favorite band. It was a great show and im sorry that I dont have better pictures than what I could take on my Treo phone, but here are some. Please enjoy

This one of my favorite songs after hearing it at the show, and I know it is one of thiers too!

Anyone out there a track day rider?

One of my favorite things to do is ride my sportbike on the race track. You can sign up and ride your bike like a MotoGp rider and have a blast. I have been to the Nashville Motor Speedway on a few occassions and pushed my limits and honed my skills. I am planning on going back again this year for a many times as I can make it. The site www.sportbiketracktime.com is the place to get all the info on getting signed up to make a track day. I have a Triumph 675 Daytona that is just awesome to tack on the track. Here are some pics!

Carlos Torano-Casa Torano Maduro Robusto

Wow, this one rocks! Great flavor, great construction, solid feed and great ash! Very nice full smoke and nutty/sweet flavor. This will be one I stock in my humi in the future. I had absolutely no burn issues and a solid draw thru and thru.

Below is a copy from CI review.

Casa Torano is a nice little story. What was once used as the family’s house blend, and a cigar only handed out at Torano rolling events, has now become one of Carlos Torano’s top-selling brands. So much so, it was only necessary to give it a maduro-wrapped counterpart. And so, Casa Torano Maduro was born, a mellow blend of Dominican and Nicaraguan long-fillers wrapped in a dark and toothy maduro leaf. Complex, yet balanced, this mild to medium-bodied mixture results in a creamy, spicy, earthy smoke with a rich, naturally sweet aftertaste. It’s mild enough to pair with your morning cup of coffee and flavorful enough to top off a hearty steak dinner.Good news! The Casa Torano Maduro received a well-deserved ’91’ point rating, noting:A dark and oily cigar that burns well, producing a flaky ash. The smoke is nutty and delicious, with notes of sweet wood, caramel, and cherry.

Graycliff Double Espresso Review

Wow if your looking for a full in your face smoke with hints of bold coffee and flavor, this is your smoke. The size and feel of this little bomb that awaits to explode with full, rich flavor is exceptional. The construction is nice and tight, a kind of sturdy feel to it. The aroma from the wrapper is definitly aimed to please- only a Starbucks junkie could ask for more!

The first light brought hints of coffee's and nuts to my nose, and the smoke was nice and thick. The aroma from the lit cigar filled the room with a pure coffee drive. I enjoyed very much-but smoker beware it is bold and potent! I miss hap inhale and there could be trouble. If you have not had the pleasure and admire a bold, full on smoke, the little Napoleon will sure do the trick.

These can be a challenge to find and often command a pretty good price, I think the retail on these are about 10-12 a stick. Hunt around you can find some good deals for sure.

Until my next smoke!

CAO Brazillia

This is the GO!

Country: Nicaragua

Length/Ring: 5 x 56

Strength: Full

Wrapper: Maduro

A great smoke, thick and rich with great chocolate flavors upon lighting. It has hints of wood and nuts, but the coca chocolate really is there. A very bold, yet mild smoke if that make sense. There is not a spicy, pepper side to this cigar so I would say its rather bold yet mild on the palette. I got lots good smoke draw and the burn was very even, with a good solid ash. The wrapper on these are just silky and oily, dark and rich. This is a fine cigar for someone looking for great flavor without a harsh tobacco taste. Highly reccomend!

Cigar Shops

Well I ran some errands and stopped by a local shop, nice place, good folks. The owner is always trying to sell me a humidor everytime I go in the place, and fact is I'd rather spend 900.00 on stogies than a wood box to hold them. Besides you can't fit more than about 75 in that one anyhow and with 3 humidors jammed pack already I just can't see the reason too!

Anyhow, I'd like to say HI John, great speaking to you today, and I hope you find the site ok.

Well I am about to go into the box to find something to smoke for another review!

Avo Maduro #2 Maduro

I had a great cigar last night, Avo Maduro #2. It was a fantastic smoke. The cut from my xikar to light from the St Dupont was fabulous. The ash on this smoke was long and sturdy. Flavor was mild to bold and creamy in texture. I would smoke these on a regular basis but I'm afraid I would become a cigar snob and they might ruin any chance to smoke anything else.

It's that good! I suggest anyone that has not tried one to get one and give it a puff!

Cigar review of Don Francisco

http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj37/mtgmt/111.jpg

I am very thankful I get to smoke this cigar curtesy of Bio. I started off with a solid cut from a xikar cutter and torched the cigar with my PD jet lighter. The draw for me was good lots of smoke. I immeadiately had hints of green from the first draw, im not sure what or where that came from. The green from newer tobacco or the wrapper im not sure.
The first inch or so were bounds of full on tobacco flavor and the butt had a nice sweetness to it. The ash on my cigar was very flaky, it would hold on, but flakes were falling off during the smoke. I had several light and relight issues as well. The construction was solid, very sturdy feel, felt good in the teeth. I still have yet to find the complex flavors at 1/2 way mark and is still very bold. I can taste hints of maybe some coffee and a slight sweetness, or sugar, but it is distant for me to tell. The last 2 inches are proving to be more flavor http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj37/mtgmt/115.jpg http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj37/mtgmt/119.jpg Overall, I think that a good 6 months in my humi would really mellow and enhance some flavors. A good tight feel and solid smoke billows from this stick and while I found this to be bit good smoker, it was a tad light on the flavor for my particular smoke and the ash and lighting issues took some fun out of it. But overall I was pleased to have tried this brand.

Happy bday to me! I'm trying to figure out what I will smoke for the occassion!

Giants WIN

well I wanted to say I had a great smoke for the superbowl. It was an ashton aged maduro #60 that had been aged 6-8 years and was absolutely fantastic.

The cigar band had started to turn a tad yellow and the smoke was chocolately and nutty, very very smooth.
