Also, for your aromatic desires you might try some of the Cornell & Diehl or GL Pease blends. C&D makes a blend called Autumn Evening that smells like pancakes but still has some flavor too. Benjamin Hartwell's Evening Stroll is nice too. Heck, I'm even known to light up some old-fashioned Capt...

Oh, and a little spit and cigar ash will brighten the silver on your shank.

You can use a MicroMark polishing kit to polish it. That Vulcanite stem should most definitely be black. You can also use an automotive rubbing compound. Do *not* use alcohol on the briar. It will strip the finish. I use Everclear to strip bowls for a new polish. Only use hard carnauba to...

You might want to take some elbow grease to that stem. That's some serious oxidation. You'll be amazed how a little stem polish and wax can make it look brand spankin' new.

My point, though I didn't elucidate it quite well enough, is that "light ale" is kind of a misnomer. Ales, as a rule, are more flavorful than lagers and therefore aren't exactly considered "light."

Currently smoking another bowlful of C&D Autumn Evening in a Falcon Dublin.

The really cool thing about it is that it's almost flat. It fits perfectly into a breast pocket or jacket pocket without leaving a bulge. :)

I was a Scout for several years, getting as far as being Senior Patrol Leader and an Assistant Scoutmaster. My last stint as an ASM I was dismayed at the mere shadow of itself that Scouting has become. The Order of the Arrow has lost the Indian chief logo due to political correctness. There are...

Tonight I'm thinking Laphroaig Cask Strength or Laphroaig Quarter Cask.
