Last week, I ordered four Diplomats from Dave of Walkerbriarworks dot com, together with a lucite Forever stem. I asked for one with the metal band, just to see what it's like, and the other three without. I don't quite know why I was so unimaginative as to order all the same models, although on...

Up until a few weeks ago, I would have said that the MM Missouri Pride with a Forever Nose Warmer stem was the best "clincher" ever. When I called MM to order some more Diplomat naturals, Marylin said they'd run out due to lack of cobs the proper size. But, she said I could buy some prototype...

Hi everyone. I've been having a look around the forums for a while now and finally decided to register. I'm a new smoker from Independence, MO (right outside of KC). I smoked cigarettes for 2 years, but gave it up because of my wife. I'm really wanting to get into cigars, however. I've had...

A new lawsuit has been filed in Greene County, Missouri (Springfield) concerning the rapidly approaching smoking ban. Interestingly enough, this one has been filed by a bar owner, not a B & M. I think they have a good argument. You can find full details at the Ozarks First website, or send...

These are the cobs I bought for my pipe bombs. At first when they came I was pretty disappointed. I didn't realize how small they were, and I was a little embarrassed to be giving them out. Well, today, for the first time I smoked the one I kept for myself, and it is a darned fine pipe for a...

Went to Weston, MO today and visited Weston Tobacco. New shop in the town about five months ago. Owner rolls his own brand right there in the shop. He uses Nicaraguan and Dominican tobaccos. His brand is called Black Ribbon Cigars. Picked up one of his maduro's he said was four days fresh. It...

Just wanted to drop a note for my fellow traveling cigar smokers. Last night I once again enjoyed a great meal at Broussard's Cajun Cuisine. To make this even better, I was able to enjoy a Alec Bradley Family Blend while sitting at the bar. Just a heads up. Good food and a great place to enjoy a...

I am not sure if this is the right place for it but I am taking a route through Springfield, MO, Fayetteville, Arkansas as well as Tulsa, Oklahoma. Are there any smoking establishments in those areas that a weary business traveler could stop in for some relaxation and a fine cigar? Smoking...

The Texas Bombers launched an evil attack on my little bit of Missouri. Their excuse is pretty weak... So, there were three of them involved in this sneak attack. Fellas I really appreciate all the attention. There are some of my favorites in that bunch as well as a bunch that I have...

Wanted to stop in and say HI. I'm fairly new to cigars and looking forward to getting some advice and opinions!

Hi y'all! I'm looking forward to visiting this site often, learning about fine stogies and making some of your acquaintances. Mike Sr

Hey all, I am pretty new to the whole cigar world. I have really started smoking cigars more often, mainly smoking Acids and a few CAO's. I am ready to branch out and try some others. I am also about to get my first Humidor, who knew there was so much to take into account!?! I can't wait to...

Been smokin' cigars for a good 10 years now. J.R. Cigar's articles actually got me into enjoying the stories behind the cigars. So I figure a good community like this was a good place to learn about the hobby I love. Thanks for having me on.:wave:

Hi all. Newbie here from central Missouri. I found the site while doing a Google search for Coolidor, and found a lot more than I was looking for. The site looks great, and I'm hoping to learn a lot from y'all.

Yeah its home of Bass Pro,..you can't fish without a good smoke

So here I am out picking up a few groceries with the family. I am bummed because I lost my position at work while we were out and I am that much closer to being laid off. We turn onto our street to see the police have taped off the area around our mailbox. Mailbox has been blown to bits and is...

Hello everyone. I am from Foristell, Missouri, about 45 miles west of St. Louis. Over the years I have tried a bunch of different, mostly cello-wrapped five packs, cigars. Some tasted OK but all left a nasty memory in my mouth. Then a friend let me try a Montecristo. It was so smooth and great...

Finally got around to actually registering. I have been lurking and reading the site for several months now. This site is a wealth of information. I have been an off and on cigar smoker for around 16 years now. Nothing serious though - just a stick every few months or so. But like many, I...

Hello everybody, I'm new to the pipe smoking scene and have a question regarding corn cob pipes. I purchased 2 corn cobs from a local tobacco store and also a briar from ebay (Big Ben). I'm using the corn cobs to try out some custom blends and some over the counter stuff and was given some...
