Discounted Cigars for the Holidays

2011-11-24T11:01:00.000-06:00

ASHTON CIGARS

AS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON APPROACHES IT'S A GREAT TIME TO FIND THOSE SPECIAL CIGARS FOR YOURSELF OR FOR THAT CERTAIN MAN IN YOUR LIFE. I'VE BEEN CHECKING AROUND THE NET AND FIND THAT MANY MERCHANTS ARE OFFERING FAR BETTER PRICES THAN A YEAR AGO. RETAILERS ARE BENDING OVER BACKWARD AND MANY OFFER FREE SHIPPING AND HANDLING AT THIS TIME. I NEVER RECOMMEND ONE CIGAR OVER ANOTHER OR ONE STORE ABOVE ANOTHER, HOWEVER IF YOU CHECK AROUND YOU WILL FIND THE BARGAINS ARE GREAT THIS YEAR.

Fancy Cigars

2011-10-12T04:04:00.000-05:00

THE HOLIDAYS ARE NOT FAR OFF AND ITS TIME TO THINK ABOUT THAT SPECIAL GIFT FOR THE MAN IN YOUR LIFE. A GREAT CIGAR WILL GO A LONG WAY IN MAKING THE HOLIDAYS A SUCCESS. THERE ARE MANY GREAT BRANDS OUT THERE, FAR TO MANY FOR ME TO SUGGEST ANYONE. TAKE YOUR TIME AND CHECK OUT DIFFERENT DEALERS AND THE SPECIALS THEY OFFER AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR.

The Pope Smokes

2011-02-01T09:10:00.000-06:00

CAME ACROSS THIS GREAT IMAGE AND JUST COULDN'T RESIST POSTING IT. YES, EVEN POPE BENEDICT XVI OCCASIONALLY FIRE UP. HIS CHOICE MARLBORO RED. AND EVEN THAT GUY CURRENTLY IN THE WHITE HOUSE SNEAKS A DRAG WHEN NO ONE IS LOOKING. I SMOKE A PIPE AND SOMETIMES A FINE CIGAR. I DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT EVEN IN MY BRIEF CIGARETTE SMOKING DAYS I NEVER INHALED--SUPPOSE THAT GOOD. I JUST LIKE THE TASTE OF FINE TOBACCO.

Cigarette Filters

2011-01-31T12:49:00.000-06:00

PERSONALLY I SMOKE A PIPE AND HAVE LITTLE INTEREST IN CIGARETTE FILTERS, BUT I DO HAVE FRIENDS WHO SMOKE CIGARETTES. SOME OF THEM USE FILTERS AND SWEAR BY THEM AND OTHERS REFUSE TO USE SUCH THINGS. IF YOU SHOULD DECIDE TO CHECK FILTERS OUT THERE IS A WIDE SELECTION ON THE MARKET AND THE PRICES FOR THE MOST PART ARE REASONABLE. I CAN'T RECOMMEND A CERTAIN TYPE AS I WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. YOU WILL JUST HAVE TO LOOK FOR ONE THAT SUITS YOUR TASTE AND POCKET BOOK!

Pipe Lighters

2011-01-30T08:25:00.000-06:00

THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF PIPE LIGHTERS ON THE MARKET. PERSONALLY THE TYPE SHOWN ABOVE IS MY FAVORITE. HOWEVER THAT IS NOT THE BEST CHOICE FOR EVERYONE. SHOP AROUND THE VARIOUS SITES AND FIND THE ONE THAT FITS YOUR POCKET BOOK AND TASTE. THE BUTANE ELECTRIC LIGHTERS ARE GREAT.

PERHAPS OUR GREATEST SMOKER!

Brass Smoking Pipe

2011-01-27T15:45:00.000-06:00

FOUND THIS IMAGE OF A VERY UNIQUE SMOKING PIPE AND THOUGHT TO PASS IT ALONG. I WONDER HOWEVER, HOW HOT A SOLID METAL PIPE MIGHT GET WHEN SMOKING? THINK I WOULD BE AFRAID TO TRY THIS ONE, BUT IT SURE IS EYE-CATCHING.

My Last Cigar

2011-01-26T13:04:00.000-06:00

I posted this back in 2009 and thought to repost now as I just smoked my last cigar and my car is in the shop!

My Last Cigar

‘Twas off the blue Canary Isles, a glorious summer day,
I sat upon the quarter deck and wiff’d my cares away
And as the volumed smoke arose, like incense in the air,
I breath’d a sigh to think in sooth, it was my last cigar

I lean’d against the quarter rail, and look’d down in the sea,
E’en there the purple wreath of smoke was curling gracefully;
Oh, what had I at such a time to do with wasting care?
Alas the trembling tear proclaim’d it was my last cigar.

I watch’d the ashes, as it came fast drawing t’ward the end,
I watch’d it as a friend would watch beside a dying friend;
But still the flame crept slowly on, it vanish’d into air,
I threw it from me – spare the tale – it was my last cigar.

I’ve seen the land of all I love fade in the distance dim,
I’ve watch’d above the blighted heart where once proud hope hath been;
But I’ve never known a sorrow that could with that compare,
When off the blue Canary Isles I smoked my last cigar.

This poem was composed by a U.S. naval officer on duty off the coast of west Africa before the Civil War, when the United States Navy guarded against illegal slave traders.

Smokeless Tobacco

2011-01-25T14:43:00.000-06:00

THERE ARE MANY TYPES OF SMOKELESS TOBACCO ON THE MARKET, PERSONALLY I LIKE SMALL PINCHES OF LEVI GARRETT. THE ONLY TIME I USE THIS PRODUCT IS WHEN I MUST BE IN A NO SMOKING AREA FOR A EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, SUCH AS A AIRPLANE FLIGHT. LIKE I SAID I ONLY USE VERY SMALL PINCHES OF THIS TOBACCO, MAKING IT UNNOTICEABLE TO THOSE AROUND ME. SOMETHING YOU MAY WANT TO CONSIDER.

Old Virgina Tobacco Company

2011-01-21T09:14:00.000-06:00

ONE CAN FIND A GREAT SELECTION OF CIGARS FROM AROUND THE WORLD AT THE OLD VIRGINIA COMPANY. I DON'T PROVIDE LINKS TO THE VARIOUS THINGS I RECOMMEND, BUT YOU CAN JUST PUT THE NAME IN SEARCH AND IT WILL COME UP. I OFTEN BUY FROM THEM AND FIND THEIR PRICES REASONABLE AND THE CIGARS GREAT.

Prince Albert Tobacco

2011-01-20T10:17:00.000-06:00

I WOULD BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T MENTION AN OLD STANDBY TOBACCO. MY FIRST SMOKE CAME ON MY GRANDFATHER'S OLD PIPE AND A BOWL FULL OF "PRINCE ALBERT". THE OLD MAN USED THE OLD POCKET TINS AND OFTEN WHEN HE EMPTIED THE CAN HE WOULD CUT IT DOWN AND MAKE A CONTAINER FOR HIS OLD KITCHEN MATCHES (THE ONES WITH THE WHITE HEADS) YOU COULD STRIKE THEM ANYWHERE. I DON'T KNOW IF PRINCE ALBERT WAS THE CHEAPEST TOBACCO OF THOSE DAYS OR NOT, BUT I DO KNOW IT WAS HIS CHOICE. OFTEN HIS KIDS WOULD BRING HIM MORE EXPENSIVE BRANDS, WHICH HE WOULD SMOKE, BUT THE OLD FELLOW WOULD ALWAYS GO BACK TO PRINCE ALBERT. TO THIS DAY I STILL SMOKE AN OCCASIONAL BOWL ALTHOUGH MY OVER THE COUNTER FAVORITE IS THE CAPTAIN BLACK IN THE WHITE CONTAINER.

Tomahawk Smoking Pipes

2011-01-19T10:37:00.000-06:00

I PERSONALLY HAVE SEVERAL BEAUTIFUL TOMAHAWK PIPES AND ONE I OCCASIONALLY SMOKE. MOST ARE NOT INEXPENSIVE AND SMOKE GREAT DUE TO THEIR LENGTH. THE LONGER THE STEM THE COOLER THE SMOKE WHEN IT REACHES THE MOUTH. THEY ARE ALSO GREAT CONSERVATION PIECES.

Handmade Indian Style Smoking Pipes

2011-01-18T17:03:00.000-06:00

I HAVE SMOKES A PIPE FOR MANY, MANY YEARS AND A FEW YEARS BACK WHEN I RETIRED I BEGAN TO MADE A FEW SIMPLE PIPES TO SELL AT LOCAL FLEA MARKETS AND SOME TO SMOKE MYSELF. I HAVE A LIMITED SUPPLY NOW. I MAKE MINE OUT OF MISSISSIPPI POPULAR AND FIND THAT THE BOWLS HOLD UP VERY WELL UNDER REPEATED USE. THEY VARY IN LENGTH FROM ABOUT 4" TO 8" IN LENGTH. PRESENTLY I DON'T HAVE IMAGES AS MY CAMERA IS BROKEN. I HAD SOME PICTURES ON MY OLD COMPUTER, BUT ALAS THEY WERE LOST WHEN IT WENT DOWN. I SELL THESE AT THE FLEA MARKETS FROM $15 TO $20 EACH IS UNIQUE AND NO TWO ARE ALIKE. I BURN OUT THE BOWL WITH A WOOD BURNING TOOL AS WELL AS BURNING VARIOUS DESIGNS ON THE BOWLS AND STEMS. IF YOU WOULD LIKE MORE INFORMATION PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT ON THIS BLOG AND I WILL GET MORE INFORMATION TO YOU AND HOPEFULLY SOME IMAGES.

BECKER PIPES

A GREAT SMOKING PIPE IF ONE CAN AFFORD THE PRICE! THESE PIPES CAN EASILY GO FOR OVER $600 U.S. DOLLARS! TO STEEP FOR MY BUDGET, BUT I SURE WOULD LOVE TO OWN ONE.

Smokeless Cigarette, E-Cigarettes

2011-01-14T19:37:00.000-06:00

NOT THE REAL THING, BUT YOU CAN LIGHT-UP ANYWHERE, INCLUDING ON A PLANE! A REAL FALL BACK THING FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO LIGHT UP ANYWHERE!! MANY DIFFERENT ITEMS ON THE MARKET, I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL INCLUDING THE ONE PICTURED ABOVE. JUST LOVE TO PULL ONE OUT ON FLIGHTS AND WATCH THOSE AROUND ME GASP!

Tobacco Seeds

2011-01-14T15:56:00.000-06:00

SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO GROW YOUR OWN TOBACCO THERE ARE MANY SITES ON LINE THAT WILL HELP YOU GET STARTED. THE TOBACCO SEEDS, ARE SURPRISING CHEAP STARTING AS LOW AS $7 PER PACK OF 200, LESS THAN THE COST OF A PACK OF CIGARETTES IN MOST PLACES. STOP PAYING THE DRACONIAN TAXES ASSOCIATED WITH TOBACCO PRODUCTS AND EFFECTIVELY TELL THE GOVERNMENT WHERE TO GO. CHECK ONLINE SOURCES AND GET STARTED IT NOT THAT HARD.

Cigarette Machine, Roll Your Own

2011-01-12T19:42:00.000-06:00

WITH THE COST OF CIGARETTES GOING THROUGH THE ROOF, MANY PEOPLE HAVE TAKEN TO ROLLING THEIR OWN. THERE ARE MANY GREAT CIGARETTE MACHINES OUT THERE AND THE COST IS SURPRISINGLY LOW. CHECK OUT SOME OF THE SITES FOR THESE AND EVEN VIEW VIDEOS ON MANY. COULD SAVE YOU MANY DOLLARS IN A SHORT TIME IF YOU SMOKE A PACK OR MORE A DAY.

Tobacco Blends

2011-01-11T15:38:00.000-06:00

WE BUYING BLENDED TOBACCO FROM YOUR FAVORITE TOBACCO STORE THE MOST POPULAR BLENDS ARE THOSE OF A CAVENDISH AND GOLDEN VIRGINIA. HOWEVER THE SELECTIONS ARE GREAT. GET A LITTLE OF DIFFERENT ONES--LET YOUR NOSE BE THE GUIDE AND THEN TRY THEM OUT UNTIL YOU FIND THAT PERFECT OR NEAR PERFECT ONE. GOOD LUCK AND GOOD SMOKING!

Pipe Tobacco

2011-01-10T16:07:00.000-06:00

THERE ARE MANY GREAT OVER-THE-COUNTER SMOKING TOBACCO'S OUT THERE, BUT MY PREFERENCE IS CAPTAIN BLACK IN THE WHITE PACKAGE. I FIND IT TO BE SMOOTH WITH NO BITE. MANY DON'T LIVE CLOSE TO A GOOD TOBACCO STORE AND MUCH PURCHASE OVER-THE-COUNTER BRANDS AND I CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS ONE AND HAVE BE USING IT FOR MORE YEARS THAN I WISH TO RECOUNT.

2010-12-15T10:17:00.000-06:00
