Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! Had a great time last night, smoked a couple of tasty Ligas and saw a couple of ole friends that have not been around for a while. This weekend sports wise, we have plenty of college and NFL football, the World Series continues and the NASCAR drivers are in Martinsville, VA (the shortest track on the circuit). Beth and I are heading down in the morning to see Jeremy, Christen and baby Eva for an overnight-er and spend some quality family time. Enjoy everyone and remember to stay safe out there...... :D

Good morning everyone, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's back to work Tuesday. Beth and I had a relaxing day yesterday after our one chore in the morning. We went out to Home Depot and purchased a new refrigerator for the garage as the old is starting to work improperly. The ole' frig came with the house when we bought the place 7 years ago and who knows how long the last owners had it. We did watch college bowl games all afternoon into the night and definitely were on the edge of our seats for a few of em'. Anyway, enjoy your week and smoke a favorite or two if you get the chance....... :cf1

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday (even though it's only 1 day as I'm flying down to Nicaragua - Cigar Safari in the morning). After work today, I'll be heading over to the Newark Airport where I'll be checking into the hotel for the night as I have to be there at 0400 in the morning. They actually have a good deal at most of the larger airports; park-sleep-fly. You spend the night (before your trip or afterwards or both), leave your car there and they will shuttle you back and forth to your terminal:

NFL wise yesterday, the first game wasn't bad but the 2nd one was exciting throughout. I see that the NY Rangers lost last night in Vegas, lets go fellas and put a few wins in a row.

All in all, it was a good day and I'm ready to go back to work. I do see a little snow coming our way today into tomorrow.

We finished up the day having dinner at a new Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood, El Jalapeno Charro in New Windsor, NY. Great day overall, too bad the Yankees lost 8 - 7 in the 12th inning, at least the Mets won for Beth. My least favorite driver Kyle Busch too the checkered flag in yesterday NASCAR race, not a fan of "Rowdy" Busch. Anyway, enjoy your week everyone and smoke a few of your favorites throughout it...... :tu

Good morning all, the coffee is on as always and the light snow that NOAA predicted never came (thank goodness). Tonight the Yankees take on the Red Sox of the first of a three game series in Boston. I'd be happy if they take 2 out of 3 and be ecstatic if they can sweep em'. I see that the Mets won again, that makes 7 straight now for them. Enjoy everyone and lets go Yankees...... :)

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday. Beth and I had a good weekend overall; Saturday, we got a lot of Spring cleaning done and then we barbecued; yesterday started off with going to Mavis Tire which was supposed to only be 4 new tires for the Jeep. Ended up with new tires, new rear brakes which included rotors and rear shocks as well. Glad I got it done, got a lot of miles ahead of us in the next few months. Sports wise, the Yankees have been rained out the past 2 days, the Mets won yesterday and the NASCAR race was halted because of rain as well and will continue today at 1300 (1 pm) on FOX. Have a great week and enjoy........ :)

Congrats to the Yankees for another win and being back in 1st place of the AL East. The Bronx Bombers will be back at it today at 1405 (2:05 pm) and hopefully they'll put up another "W" and sweep the Rays.

Good morning everyone, the coffee has been on since 0420 as always and it's already "Hump Day". I see that the Yankees did not fair so well last night in Minnesota, they take on the Twins for another game this evening starting at 2010 (8:10 pm). To all our S/BOTL that may get impacted by Hurricane Florence, we are thinking of you and wish you all the best....... :tu

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Thursday. Unfortunately, I won't be going to Hudson Valley Cigars this evening as I have to have a tooth pulled this afternoon. The S/BOTL will be there though, so stop by and enjoy one or two if your in the area. The Yankees lost again last night and are only 1 game up in the wild card. Lets go fellas and turn this around. Enjoy everyone and be safe out there........ :banger

Good morning everyone, the espresso coffee is on and it's Friday! All went well with the tooth extraction, a little sore but I'll be fine. The Yankees are back at home taking on the Blue Jays this weekend, lets go fellas and pad the wildcard a bit. The NASCAR racers are in Las Vegas and they are starting their 10 race playoff for their championship. Army will be at home as well tomorrow taking on "Hawaii at Manoa" with a 1200 (12 pm) kick off. Lastly, the NFL is in full swing, hopefully your team wins (Fly Eagles Fly). Hope everyone enjoy a favorite or two if you get the chance........ :D

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's back to work Monday (already). We had a good weekend overall: Army beat Hawaii; the Yankees didn't get swept and are still 1.5 games ahead in the wildcard; the NASCAR race was definitely playoff worthy with Brad Keselowski getting his 3rd win in a row; and the Eagles almost came back from behind loosing 21 - 27 to the Buccaneers. I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys......... :)

Their D is good right now.

Trubisky's passing and decision making skills need to improve before the Bears can actually seriously contend.

Congrats to the Yanks for taking game one of a 3 game series even though they almost blew it in the 9th. Lets keep cheering on the Bombers for another "W" tonight. Enjoy everyone....... :chr

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's Friday! We had a great time at Schlesinger's last night, a number of the regulars were hanging out enjoying primo stogies and all. Too bad the Yankees lost and couldn't sweep the Red Sox, lets go fellas and concentrate on the Wild Card now. I see that the Jets lost as well, hopefully the Eagles do better against the Colts this Sunday. The NASCAR drivers are in Richmond, VA with racing tonight and tomorrow evening as well. Enjoy your weekend everyone, smoke a favorite or two or........ :D

Good morning everyone, the coffee is on and it's back to work Tuesday. We had a great long weekend with friends and family starting with the West Point Oktoberfest on Friday night. Saturday we went to a pig roast and Sunday, Beth and I relaxed on the back patio. Yesterday was another one for the books as we spent it with our dear friends from Fort Eustis, VA cruising the Hudson River on a river boat ride. Sports wise, the Eagles won and the Yankees are rolling along with the Wild Card game scheduled for October 3rd. I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys........ :tu
