    Launch Day

    Warlords of Draenor released today. Que times are taking 1-2 hours with very laggy servers once in. Blizzard employees and servers are at max capacity. And that is the way you bring in over a Billion dollars per year! Now if the 2,000+ que line on Zul'jin will hurry.......

    Snowqualmie Beer

    We have made it back to one our favorite places (the Pacific Northwest) and are looking forward to trying some of Brewdude's handiwork. Now we just have to see how to get some back to Alabama. The 10 degree drop in temperature is refreshing also. It looks like we are in for a beautiful day in...

    Patton's New Black & Mild

    So I have had this terrible tin of Danish Black Vanilla for 1 year that I have needed to get rid of. It was terribly goopy last time I opened it. When I opened it yesterday to look at it again it is bone dry and crispy. Yesterday I decided to put a pinch of it with Penzance. I did not use...

    '73 VW Thing

    My 16 year old just got his license. He gets to drive the volkswagon for a year. He will be taking it to school tomorrow. When my older son drove it, he became known on campus for the car.

    Smooth vs rusticated

    Proper enjoyment of Penzance

    It is a cool morning here in Alabama. I have decided to break out the campfire smelling tobacco. After all the snooty reviews of Penzance I have decided to disagree. Penzance always causes me to reminisce about backpacking on the Appalacian and Pinhoti trails. For me Penzance takes me back to...

    Legends of Steam

    So I had a MM Legend in my desk drawer as a spare give-away. I decided to use it myself with some FVF in it. This was my first time to smoke a pipe with a see-through stem. Even though I left the filter in the pipe, there was a good bit of visible moisture that condensed inside the stem. It...
