Happy New Year to and yours, Charlie.

[Stogieman]

Good morning everyone, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's back to work Monday. Congrats to all the NFL teams that advanced in the playoffs, hopefully not too many coaches get fired today that didn't fare so well. Since the Eagles didn't make it this year, all I can say now is the NASCAR is only a few weeks away. Enjoy the week all and smoke a favorite or two if you get the chance....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and I think this is the coldest day of this winter season yet: 7°F and with the windchill, it's -4°F

Hope everyone has a great day and good luck this evening to all that have Powerball tickets, we'll soon find out who will be our next billionaire....... :banger

[The Poet]

Where's the sports update, Charlie? Bad night for ranked college hoops teams. #1 Kansas, #3 Maryland, and #8 Miami all fall. Oh, and seems LA will get their Rams back, but nobody wants the Raiders.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and nope, we didn't win the Powerball this time. Back to work as usual and try again another day. Since it's Thursday, we'll be at Hudson Valley Cigars / Schlesinger's Cigar Bar this evening smoking primo cigars and seeing how everyone is holding up in the cold weather. Enjoy everyone and smoke a favorite or two if you get that chance....... :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning everyone, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's already "Hump Day". The temps outside continue to be below freezing through Sunday and the weather guessers still have no clue on how much snow the Northeast will receive this weekend. Either way, make sure you have plenty of bread and milk, LOL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6zaVYWLTkU
Enjoy everyone and try and stay warm....... :D

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! The usual suspects were out last night at Schlesinger's, smoked a couple of primo stogies and caught up on the world's news. We've got plenty of bread and milk on hand for this weekend as I see there are lines at all the local markets already, LOL. There's plenty of NHL all weekend and on Sunday, the NFL continues with NFC / AFC playoff games as well. Be safe out there and enjoy....... :chr

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday after a weekend full of snow and sports. Congrats to the Broncos and the Panthers for making it to the Superbowl. Snow wise, we got 6" here in Cornwall but I know a lot of areas not far from here got a lot more and others got a lot less. This week is looking to be a nice one with no snow predicted in the near future. Enjoy everyone and be safe out there....... :)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's looking like the temps will be rising today and hopefully melt some of this snow we have. The worst part of it is the black ice, careful everyone. Enjoy your day....... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day"! Not too much going on this week, trying to figure out what Beth and I are going to do this Saturday as there are 3 different beer festivals in our area.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". The weather guessers called for 1.5 inches of the white stuff last night, well they got it wrong again and we didn't get any (thank god).

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's already "Hump Day". The weather guessers over at NOAA have extended the rain forecast now through Sunday, sucks but we can use the rain as it's pretty dry around here.

Have a great day everyone and be safe out there....... :banger

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! It was good to see the Yankees sweep the Red Sox and give C.C. a good finish for the season.
