    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.

    Time's Top 10 Things We Miss About the Mad Men Era

    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."

    Time's Top 10 Things We Miss About the Mad Men Era

    Agreed on this end of the world too. Every time I watch a vintage movie or read a vintage magazine I say the same thing. A woman should look like a woman and a man like a man. Curves on a woman are dead sexy. I do question #4. Men drank lagers? I think they mean women drank light lagers and...

    Time's Top 10 Things We Miss About the Mad Men Era

    I fly out of Knoxville regularly on an MD-88 on Allegiant, and flew on a 767 the last time I flew on Delta. Allegiant is much better than Delta for not being treated like cattle.

    What cigar (or pipe) did you smoke today?

    Tonight's pipe is a Wessex 01 packed with McClelland's Coyote Classic. English with a smidge of Virginia. Good stuff.

    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. :)

    Scouting anyone?

    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.

    My daily carry is either a Glock G30, a Colt Govt. Model .380 or a S&W 642, depending on clothing.

    Yes, Englishes can be a stronger flavor. They are typically laced with Latakia, which is a Syrian or Cyprian tobacco cured over fire, which gives it a smoky taste and aroma. I would suggest going over to pipesmokersforum.com and getting in on the FNG swap. People will send you several different...

    Which decade is the worst in terms of style?

    I love that the rockabilly fashion that has become popular is trying to revive many of the '40s and '50s fashions. There are few women more beautiful than Bernie Dexter, who is the premier pinup models these days, and seeing many of these young ladies wearing fashions and hairstyles from six...

    The Zombie

    Everybody should have a copy of at least one of the Bum's books in their bar. He's a master of cocktail archaeology and a really nice guy to boot.
