27 holes today so I got in a few on the golf course.
Started out with an MK Ultra - needed to get a good one in under the belt first thing

Figured one good one wouldn't be enough so on to an HVC Hot Cake for round 2

and now we see why I have to get in a few good ones first. A great BOTL elsewhere sent me a few of these as a joke, but I figured I really needed to at least smoke one. I was expecting it to be Gurkha-esque and that I would be tossing it early but it actually wasn't horrible

and tonight - an Aladino Vintage

Think I'll place the blame on My being Bourbon deprived when read this post. "and now we see why I have to get in a few good ones first.

That made Me think *Sure hope that His Excellency Sir Dogrockets doesn't see/read this.Just image a Churchill or larger size Gurka with His Excellency's likeness on the band. Given the cigar size the Question must be . Which head would He choose to adorn that"broomstick."Quote:

You know, a brand called @DogRockets with band that has Jeremy's face on it sounds like an excellent idea !Quote:

We are getting a fall preview this week, and it’s absolutely beautiful out.
I decided to give one of these Davidoff The Late Hour a try, suggested to me by my good enabler, err I mean friend @WNYTONY
I’m not crazy about this larger rg, but when you look for a single or two to try out before a box, etc... you sometimes have to be happy with what you can get.

This is also a celebratory smoke, in honor of my new guitar rig. I finally got my “dream” rig. Upgraded everything, guitar, amp, new pedals and a board to put them on. I’ve been working on this for the last several months. I have everything now, with the exception of a 2 or 3 more pedals. It’s taken over 3 decades to finally have a rig like this, so I think it calls for a celebration.
Those into this might appreciate a pic ( I added another pedal yesterday, but this pic is from a few days before )

So far - great book. First read by him for me, but I'm liking his style here - modern horror, doesn't draw-out things, easy to follow, vulgar, and raw. It's definitely an adult read with...dark and dirty situations (I'll keep it at that). Check out the movie with the same title - "Let the Right One In" - ESPECIALLY the Swedish version. American version is ok, but do yourself a favor and look for the other.Quote:

And here You are with the same take on the Movies.Deleted that part since I figured the post would be too long, and have far little ref to Smoking. NowI didn't watch the American movie, but did not need to since I knew it would be lousy, have been by a couple of people that they could not even watch the that it (on You tube ) to the end.Quote:

@allusred
Yes, a natural is available and for around $3. I'll toss a review up for it somewhat soon but the overall - had a twang in the first 1/3 that's kinda metallic, kinda light for a maduro, solid throughout, little pepper and spice in the retrohale, 2/3-3/3 the twang melds better. I'd get another for sure and would like to try the natural.
What's my next read by Lindqvist - preferably horror?

Matthew, I think first up...Little Star, esp since the Covid isolation/lockdown and the risk of such for young kids/childrenQuote:
