Had a la gloria, earlier. I'm not 100 percent sure that smoking in my apartment was a good idea, even with all the windows open (I won't know until the next time I have a guest over), but it sure was a nice cigar. I personally think that the remnant room note is rather nice, myself.

It's your place and if the remnant note pleases you, then feck anyone else. IMHO.

had a Ghurka Park Avenue 44. it burned very unevenly, but was pleasant enough otherwise. mild and creamy.

i got one of these in a newbie humidor buy. like $15 for a 20 count humi plus a handful of newbie sticks. the guys at cigar asylum always rip gurkha but i had a symphony a long time ago and liked it. mild and creamy, like you describe the park avenue.

i'm about to have a bowl of 4noggins.com Bald Headed Teacher

the Bald Headed Teacher was pretty good. a real easy smoke, mild with a pleasant aftertaste. not sweet like I usually go for but I like it.

I like a pipe because it's a much easier commitment then a cigar. but I like a cigar because they are little works of tobacco art.

i can dig that. i think it's much more difficult to smoke a pope beautifully than it is to do the same with a cigar, though.

absolutely, I never even imagined how much would go into just loading a bowl until I tried the first time. a cigar is a cinch by comparison. just snip, torch, puff.

it is nice to be able to just set down a bowl and come back to it later.

Smoking the pope sounds nasty. And sacrilegious. :P

yep, that is definitely one of the great things about a pipe. you can also just put it in your pocket, if you are out walking around and you want to enter a no smoking establishment, and the pipe will extinguish as quickly as you please. that maneuver only rarely sets your trousers on fire.

also you can use the fiery ash to attack the pope. just like "wham" all over his vestments. what up pope?

Don Peppin Series JJ Salomon in the morning at the Baghdad air terminal and a Cain F maduro in Kuwait. Hopefully will be a R&J petite Churchill on my deck with Kona coffee in a couple days :)
