    Louis LaMour

    Anyone Like Johnstone? I've read the first Mountain Man book. Good stuff. I think I like L'Amour better.

    Poirot Anyone?

    I'll check out Carr. I really don't read mysteries, but I discovered John D MacDonald's Travis McGee which was an awesome find. Then moved over to Christie. Yea, Shouldn't say Christie doesn't require you to think, she does. Like you said Richard, more of an Escape. ABC Murders was the only...

    Chocolate Flake - Gawith Hoggarth vs Samuel Gawith?

    GH BCF is more powdered chocolate with tonquin and vanilla. Of course it's floral/lavender... SG Chocolate is so different it almost comes across as a Balkan, until Bob is totally forgotten.  Then a dark chocolate Drifts  to the nose.  Simply exquisite. Resurrecting the Dead :cheers:

    What's in your rotation right now?

    Yea, not to much of a Nic Bomb.  Not in the Rope class either.  Roayal Yacht is very malty and earthy.   The topping is supposed to be plum, but I get coffee and chocolate.  But that's only when a tin has just been popped.  That's all very subjective, though.  I just don't pick up a plum note.

    Louis LaMour

    I'm a huge Louis L'Amour fan. I started reading his stuff a couple of years ago. My favorites are Silver Canyon and Fair Blows the Wind. I've recently collected his Short Story Collection in Paperback and was about to devour them. Poirot struck and I've been delayed by a sleuth. Not one...

    Poirot Anyone?

    I love the David Suchet Series and started reading Lady Agatha's Poirot Mysteries. Started with "Death on the Nile" and am currently reading "Sad Cypress". I usually start at the beginning of a series, but said screw it. I'm reading them out of order and picking them up at the the library(...

    Freemason and Dan Brown's Lost Symbol

    I read it, I'd say a better read is Born In Blood. Better history.

    Cornell & Diehl Cellar Series - Disquieting Discovery?

    I had a tin of Bijou mold on me. Bought it from Smokingpipes.com, they took care of it and sent me another. It's in the cellar, hopefully aging well. I'm quite positive if mold shows itself again, the fine folks at Cornell &Diehl will take care of it.
