Hows your Weather?

Sleddog46 — Sun, 23 Jul 2017 21:10:29 +0000

Since the weather sucks here in Quinton, NJ, with high temps and higher humidity, I thought I'd ask everyone else "How's your weather"? Maybe we can collectively suffer together or maybe not.

Pretty much self-explanitory... just some place to compile quotes from whomever that find meaningful or relevant.

Saw this on another board and thought it was fun - Basically I post a word and the next person to respond posts a word related to their word - Example...

Canada - next person might post :"hockey"

The next person after that migh post "toothless" - feel free to be as creative as you want with the associations.

First word:

What's for dinner?

TheShaun — Sun, 18 Oct 2009 18:56:40 +0000

Figured since we have a what are you smoking and what did you drink thread, we should have a what's for dinner thread. I also know we have some posters who are/were chefs or just plain culinary enthusiasts.

I got a some good ole fashioned Louisiana red beans and rice simmering away on the stove. Some of you may know that my girlfriend is from Baton Rouge, so I decided to put together a traditional dish from LA. I may be the only person in this city of 2 million cooking red beans and rice tonight. Sadly no corn bread baking

What are you reading?

robbyras — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 17:04:54 +0000

I'm reading my first epic fantasy series... it's called A Song of Ice and Fire by George RR Martin... I just started the 4th book called A Feast for Crows... Much like many other fantasy epics, it claims to be the best think since Tolkien... I can't really speak on that since I have yet yo read the Lord of the Rings, but I can say I dig these books. The series is still being written and book five is due out later this year... it has also been picked up by HBO. The pilot was just finished (which is probably why the 5th book is about a year behind schedule). The series has basically ruined me for other books... I can't get into anything else and have no idea what I will do while waiting for the 5th book... so what are you reading?

What’s for breakfast?

Mr Possum — Sat, 26 Mar 2022 13:00:54 +0000

Most important meal of the day, outside of second breakfast. Mine mostly consist of eggs, grits, sausage, bacon, biscuits or muffins. I’d like to know what kind of breakfast everyone enjoys, maybe try some new things. Let’s share some experiences.

Ignore the mess, decided to post this last second because I was hungry, this is my typical work breakfast, eggs, grits, half a biscuit with mustard, other half with grape jelly, sausage patty on top.

Last weekend, Barack Obama invited five rap stars to the White House to help with his "Brother's Keeper" initiative, to encourage young black men to avoid incarceration for undocumented acts of wealth redistribution.

The president had barely finished speaking when rapper Rick Ross's court-ordered ankle bracelet went off. Yes, a man selected by Mr. Obama to serve as an exemplary racial role model has to wear an ankle bracelet until his trial for aggravated assault and battery, pistol-whipping, and kidnapping (second arrest this month, by the way). Tragically, Ross is not also facing charges for rapping in public.

Call me old fashioned (liberals will surely call me a cross-burning racist) but I have to think the best way to discourage misogynistic, criminally anti-social behavior among black youths may not be honoring rappers who make their millions celebrating misogynistic, criminally anti-social behavior.

Ben Carson, by odd contrast, was not invited.

Here you guys go, no memes allowed in this thread . Seems like the best solution. Now those who want to, can chime in on political topics without contaminating other threads.

Resurrecting the Joke Thread

Lasabar — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 01:35:17 +0000

I couldn't find it on the "Non-Cigar Related" forums anymore so I'm resurrecting this thread for I need more ammo at the workplace!!!

I'll start

A man is driving down the freeway in Washington D.C. and the traffic is horrible until it comes to a dead stop!
A person comes up to the car and says:
"Terrorists have the Presidient Obama and his wife held hostage in the WhiteHouse and they are demanding $5 Billion Dollars or they will douse our nation's leader with gasoline and burn them!!!"

Man driving: "OH MY GOODNESS!!! HOW CAN I HELP???? WHAT IS EVERYONE ELSE DONATING??"

Man on the Street: "Oh, About a Gallon and a Half......"

Let's bring back the jokes people!!!!!!

These didn't really fit any other thread. Feel free to add other interesting videos you come across.

This guy has hugenormous cajones. His last trick in this video is pretty unreal.

This one's pretty cool too, on road bikes none the less.

Another cool video iff'n you like knives.

Netflix recommendations And Prime( if you got it)

Andrew_Dzikoski — Wed, 29 Jan 2014 13:46:07 +0000

There had been a Movie thread on here and now talks about movie night I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread on good stuff to watch on streaming services. I just finished Lilyhammer on netflix which is a great show something like sopranos meets fargo. Just make sure you turn on subtitles. Now I've been watching Under the dome on Prime which is based on the steve king novel. So who else has some recommendations?

Coffee

jlmarta — Mon, 01 May 2017 14:45:19 +0000

Doesn't seem to be a thread just for coffee so I thought I'd start one. And since it's a Monday and the first day of May I'll start it off with the following:

What's For Lunch?

jarubla — Mon, 13 Jun 2016 19:34:35 +0000

I am on the 4th week of a very low/no carb diet (alcohol excepted--really not a concern as I am not much of a binge drinker).

Boiling up some brats and gonna have a salad with them. Down 10 lbs and workouts are getting better!

Whatchu having for lunch?

Rock My Ride

webmost — Wed, 30 May 2018 17:57:27 +0000

July 8th I turn 70. To celebrate, I'll ride a murdercycle across country -- a farewell tour. I want to visit all my sisters, grand-children, and great-grandchildren.

En route, I'm looking to beat July heat. So I've divided each day into three legs and a siesta. Leg one, I hit the road at the very asscrack of dawn & drain a tank. Then stop for a quick breakfast. Leg two, drain another tank. By now, it will be getting brutal. So I'll hole up for siesta in some cool spot offering cold beverages. Leg three, a dusk ride while the heat sizzles down, arriving at my lodging. Idea is, every blistering afternoon, I intend to hide under a rock, like any well educated jackrabbit would do. Common sense.

That's where you come in. I'm looking for a few good rocks.

Each afternoon I'd admire to herf up with an internet brother & a good cigar underneath the right rock. Look at this itinerary I've sketched out below, and tell me if you know a relaxing spot roughly two-thirds along any such leg where you and I could burn a gar, drink lemonaid, & chill.

For example, say you live in Kansas City, and you like Isaac Char Cigar Lounge in Topeka... so you PM me and say "let's herf up at Ike's place on your leg from St Louis to Hays, Monday 2nd ... here's my digits." That simple.

Of course, I'm also not averse to "I live in Twin Falls. There's no cigar lounge here. But we can burn stix in my basement. It's cool down there." Cool is key, see. I'll be toting tons of home rolled sticks, so I can supply the uppowoc, you supply the chair. That method saves bucks, and bucks are important too. Extra points if you have a pool.

Nor, for that matter, am I averse to saving a buck on lodging, if someone wants to put up with me, which is no mean feat. I'm shacking with Sketch in Grand Junction, for instance. I warn you I'll be fifty miles up the road by the time you wake up next morning. I'll have tent and bag with me... But my main focus right now is how to beat the heaking freat. I'm old. I don't need to get all exhausted & stroke out into the ditch.

Here follows the rough itinerary. Keep in mind that the last four JIC days are there for a purpose ... Just In Case days. So if it sets to thunderbumbling unreal in St Louis or if I get a flat in Sonora I might blow a JIC day, & that means every day thereafter gets pushed back. Nothing set in stone.

Any photographers out there?

Heavysetrapier — Sun, 17 Nov 2019 18:38:15 +0000

I'm looking to get my girlfriend a camera for Christmas. She was studying photography before and she had a nice camera that got stolen. I want to get her a nice camera for beginners, but something that takes good quality pictures that she could possibly use for like a side business or something like that. I don't need to buy her a bunch of fancy lenses, but I would like it that the camera can accept different lenses and such so that it can be added to later if necessary.

I'm currently looking at a Nikon D3500 bundle that comes with a couple of lenses and some other accessories. I know absolutely nothing about any of this and am wondering if there's anyone out there who might have some advice on the subject.

I'm thinking that black Friday would be a good time to get a good deal on something like this.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Songs

Vulchor — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 10:26:53 +0000

Been thinking of this one for awhile now. and finally remembering to do it. Simple thread really... just a place to list a song or two as the mood hits you which you think is a really great song for people to listen to or check out. I dont mean necessarily the "hot hits" of the day, just something from childhood, or a moment in your life, or lyrics that hit you-----that you want to share with others as a way of saying check it out.

Sorry for the spotty check in as my life got really busy.. My Mom passed away on Memorial Day weekend and her celebration of life was this Saturday ..So the last couple months have been really busy and costly in so many ways.. But there is good news as I have a job offer for a much better company and position.. There will be a Giveaway hopefully soon when I finally start the new company and get my financials in order..Also the past giveaways saved my butt for great smokes as money got tight with travel expenses and helping my Dad with bills.. The Giveaway will be my way of giving back to you guys ...
