Last night we had a good time at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar and it was good seeing LouieD, Ralph (ilcchef2), and all of the rest of the Thursday night gang. Not sure what's up for this weekend as of yet due too the unknown path of Tropical Storm Danny heading our way.

If your close by and enjoy college football, stop by and join in on the fun. Either way, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well........ :banger

Good morning all and yes, the Killer Beans Electric Chair™ Espresso is on. Congrats to Alabama for winning the BCS Bowl game 37 - 21 over Texas who's quarterback was out of the game in the first series with a shoulder injury. Schlesinger's was packed and S/BOTL from all over that we haven't seen in a while showed up for the game. For this weekend, Saturday should be a good one with NFL Wild Card play games starting at 1630(4:30pm) and continuing through the night. I hope everyone has a good one and enjoys......... :chr

T.G.I.F.

Good morning everyone and as always, the coffee is on. Had a good afternoon yesterday at Schlesinger's / Hudson Valley Cigars watching the Patriots fall to the Ravens 33 -14 while smoking a couple of primo stogies. But the best game all weekend was the 2nd game yesterday; the Packers / Cardinals was a head to head battle with Arizona winning in overtime, 51 - 45. I'm sure all of the teams that are scheduled to play next weekend are stepping up there game now and I can hardly wait till Saturday. Anyway, I hope all of you have a great week and you take the time to smoke a couple of your favorites through out it........ :pi

[Stogieman]

I can hardly wait as we have been hoverring in the single digits to the mid 20s for the past few week. Anyway, there's much going on this evening except the season premiere of American Idol on FOX. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys........ :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. Well, I checked out NOAA again this morning and it looks like after today we have a heat wave comin' our way to the Northeast. There's not much going on this week, a few meetings at work, the normal winter sports and other activities that keep us busy until the weekend comes our way. I hope everyone has a good one and enjoys........ :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and as always, the coffee is on.

Good morning all, the joe is brewin' and T.G.I.F. Well, we had a good time last night at Schlesingers smoking ceegars, telling good jokes and celibrating Ian's birthday (thefatguy). This weekend we have more NFL football games to watch and I have my fingers crossed that the Jets (Beth's team) advance to the next level so I'll have a team to root for since the Eagles got knocked out last week. I hope everyone has a great weekend and you get to relax and enjoy a favorite or two or....... :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Today we have a couple of NFL playoff games that I'll try and catch on the tube.

I hope everyone has a super Saturday and enjoys....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and as always, the joe is brewin'. Well, yesterday's NFL game winners were no surprise. New Orleans and Indianapolis both won thier games and have advanced to thier respective conference championship games next week. Today we have Dallas taking on Minnesota at 1300(1pm) and then the New York Jets vs. the San Diego Chargers will follow at 1640(4:40pm). Both games should be exciting and I hope that the Jets advance for Beth's sake. Anyway, I hope everyone continues to enjoy the weekend and gets to smoke a favorite or two....... :chr

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. Well, it was good to see the Jets win as they were considered the underdog and congrats to the Vikings as well. So the playoff picture next Sunday is Jets at Indy starting around 1500(3pm) and then the Vikings at New Orleans at 1830(6:30pm). Should be a good day of football but it would be great to see the Jets go to the big game for Beth. Today, I'm going to go over to West Point and pick up Cadet Eric Reder and spend a few hours in a local cigar shop. Depending on how much time Eric has off will determine what shop we stop at. I've taken him a couple of time to Schlesinger's / Hudson Valley Cigars but I'd like to show him Israel's place; Uptown Cigar Shop. Either way, we'll smoke a couple of primo stogies and ensure that Eric gets a little time away from West Point. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys....... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and it's always nice to start the work week off on a Monday. It was a very good day yesterday weather wise and I ended going to Kingston and spending it with Israel and his crew at he Uptown Cigar Company. Enjoyed lunch a Lucy's Tacos(next door) and smoked a couple of top knotch ceegars. One of our old friends stopped by as he was in the area on business, you know him as CoventryCat86. It was good to see Bill and and I hope he makes it to the Quad State Herf as he still has a lot of friends in this and other communities. Anyway, I hope everyone has a good today and takes a break to enjoy a favorite or two or....... :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. I had an early morning as I had to drop a couple of guys from work at the Newark NJ Airport to catch a 0730 flight to Orlando. No problem though as it was only an hour earlier than I usually get up. Anyway, yesterday was a great time down at the Metro Cigar Society, George(Tazman) and all of the guys down there treat us really well everytime we visit. The food was great and we enjoyed primo stogies all day. I wanted to thank Tommy Zman (planetZman) for the tasty cigar he gifted and it was my pleasure in finally meeting him. You need to check out his website: www.planetzman.com when you get a chance. Today will be a J-E-T-S, Jets Jets Jets football gameday over at my nephew Brian's (Axle Foley) house and I hope they win for Beth's sake.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great week enjoys a favorite or two or....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin'. Well, it rained yesterday for almost 24 hours and the drive over the mountain comin' from West Point to Cornwall was like in that movie, "The river runs through it".

Anyway, I hope everyone has a good one and enjoys...... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. There's nothing really special going on today except that it's "Hump Day" and all. I'm busy working on all the logistics for next month's Quad State Herf; money orders / checks are coming in and the Sponsors are starting to send thier stuff to me as well. We are exactly 1 month away as the event is the 27th of February and I have a good feeling that this one will be the best of the best so far. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys a favorite or two or....... :D

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee has been on since 0345 and a big T.G.I.F. I have to head back to the Orange County EOC again for day 2 of training which should be done by 1600(4pm).

Besides that, I hope everyone has a great week and gets to enjoy a few of your favorites through out it....... :tu

[Stogieman]

Today: A chance of light snow, mainly after 4pm. Cloudy, with a high near 30. Calm wind. Chance of precipitation is 30%.

Tonight: Light snow likely, mainly after 10pm. Cloudy, with a low around 19. Calm wind. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New snow accumulation of around an inch possible.

Either way, we'll be conducting an "Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call" tomorrow morning at 0400(4am) with all the key folks involved. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys....... :pi

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on since 0330(3:30am). We had our Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call as scheduled at 0400. West Point is code "White" until 0900 with a 2 hour delay for the elementary & middle schools:

http://www.westpoint.edu/WeatherConditions/

http://www.westpoint.edu/WeatherConditions/SnowPolicy.htm

It's not that bad out but the DPW crews want to ensure that they can hit the main parking areas with the plows and a salt / sand mixture to break up what ever has built up over night. Anyway, I hope everyone has a happy "Hump Day" and get's to and enjoy a favorite or two or........ :cool2:

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. This week must have flew by as it seemed just the other day I was saying that it was Thursday. Being that, we'll be a Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars this evening enjoying primo sticks and talking news, weather and sports. If you are in the area, stop on by if you have the time and join us. If your not close by, I hope you have a great day as well and enjoy a favorite cigar while relaxing...... :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on for a while.

T.G.I.F.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the Killer Beans Electric Chair™ Espresso coffee is on. Well, the weather guessers were wrong again as I woke up at 0400 to see how much snow we got and it hasn't snowed here a bit. Thank god as I had no interest to go out today and clean off the Jeeps and then shovel. I know that the Washington D.C. / Philadelphia area got hit hard and I hope everyone in that zone is okay. As far as today, we have Danica Patrick starting in her first ever stock car race (ARCA Series) at 1630(4:30pm) and then this evening the Bud Shootout is scheduled to start at 2000(8pm). It's great to see that the 2010 race season has begun and Speed Week down in Daytona a heck of a way to start it off. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and takes the time to enjoy a favorite or two or...... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the joe has been brewing for a while. I couldn't sleep so I figured I check out what's up. Had good day yesterday, smoked a couple of ceegars at the Hudson Valley Cigar shop http://www.hudsonvalleycigars.com/ and then came home and watched stock car racing for the rest of the day. Today as we know is the Superbowl and I hope that the new Orleans Saints win it for the community and the teams sake. After Hurricane Katrina devestated Louisiana back on the 25th of August 2005, it will mean a lot to the folks down there that lost everything. Anyway, I hope everyone has a super Sunday and enjoys...... :banger

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is definitely on. Congrats to the New Orleans Saints, they definitely out played the Colts in the 2nd half making them the Superbowl Champs. What I'm presently trying to do is get my CigarFest 2010 tickets in the Poconos but as I tried 3 times to get past the ordering page on CI, I kept getting knocked off of their server. Now it's saying that they are conducting maintenance (Server Crashed) and will be back up shortly. We'll see!!! Anyway, I hope everyone has a great Speed Week (it's a NASCAR thing) and enjoy...... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Well, no luck in getting any CigarFest tickets as of yet. By the time I got through on the telephone, the VIH and General Admission tickets were sold out. Now it's time to watch all the cigar boards and see if I can aquire that way. As far as today goes, the weather guessers are predicting another good one for the East Coast. It looks like we'll be getting around 8 to 10 inches of the white stuff starting tonight into tomorrow:

Tonight: Snow likely, mainly after 3am. Cloudy, with a low around 21. Calm wind becoming northeast between 4 and 7 mph. Chance of precipitation is 70%. New snow accumulation of less than one inch possible.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on for a while now. We had an "Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call" at 0400(4am) this morning as a result of the pending storm heading our way. West Point is "Code Red" today which means that only emergency personnel have to report to work so the snow removal folks can do their jobs. It's always nice to be able to stay home especially on a Wednesday to break up the work week :D . Anyway, I hope everyone has a happy "Hump Day" as well and enjoys a favorite ceegar or two or....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Yesterday, we ended up with a good 9+ inches of snow and now the storm is out to sea. We have a 2 hour delay this morning as the mountain that a majority of us cross to get to work is a bit slick still as well as other major roads that lead into West Point from outlining communities. Since today is Thursday, we'll be at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars enjoying primo ceegars and viewing the guys pictures from last weeks trip to Nicaragua.

Due to the inclement weather down in Daytona Beach yesterday, the NASCAR Camping World Truck series race got rescheduled to this evening at 1830(6:30pm). Also today we have the Nationwide series race at 1300(1pm) which should be a good one. I'm just anxious to see some good side by side racing at Daytona and as Darrell Waltrip says it: "Boogity Boogity Boogity, Let's Go Racin' Boys". Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well....... :banger

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is brewing. Well, there were two great races yesterday building up to today's Daytona 500. I can hardly wait to hit the sports bar and watch this great American race. Hopefully, Dale Jr. wins it or at least finishes in the top 5 and Mark Martin takes the checkered as it's one of the races he has yet to win. Anyway, I hope everyone has a super Sunday and enjoy........ :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Yesterday's Daytona 500 was a long one with 2 extended delays due to problems with the track. After it was all over, congrats to Jamie McMurray and the entire Earnhardt Ganassi Racing team. Dale Earnhardt Jr. in the #88 Amp Chevrolet made a final charge and ended up 2nd to make it a good points day.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Yesterday the pitchers and catchers arrived at Spring Training so it's only a little time now that we start to see some baseball again. Don't get me wrong, I love the Winter Olympics and you know that I'm a huge NASCAR fan, but baseball is the American pass time as we know. Anyway, today being Thursday, we'll be at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson valley Cigars this evening enjoying primo stogies and catching up on this weeks happenings. If you're in the area and have the time, stop on by and join in on the fun. Either way, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys it as well....... :banger

[Stogieman]

Good morning all, the coffee is on and a big T.G.I.F. We had a good time last night with a packed house at Sclesinger's / Hudson valley Cigars. You can feel the excitement in the air about next week's Quad State Herf and also the planning of CigarFest 2010. I've been working on the QSH now since December and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Anyway, this weekend has a lot going on, we have NASCAR, Olympics and a few other sports to watch on the TV. Also, my brother-in-law Kenny is retiring from the U.S. Mint here at West Point and the family is throuwing him a big retirement party Saturday evening. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great weekend and enjoys a few of their favorites through out it....... -(P

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the Killer Beans Electric Chair™ Espresso is brewin'. I got home yesterday from work to a stack of boxes from all over the world and I'll have to tell you, I was blown away! The support we have this year for next week's Quad State Herf is amazing. The "Cause" we are all getting together for is the best (Wounded Warriors) and I know it's going to be an incredible time. Anyway, I hope everyone has a super Saturday and enjoys....... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and as always, the coffee is on. We had a great time last night at my brother-in-laws surprise retirement party.

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the joe is brewin' as always. Yesterday between the NASCAR race from Cali to the Olympics on a couple of different channels, the day was packed with non-stop action. Congrats to Jimmie Johnson for winning the Auto Club 500 as well as all the U.S. Olympians for winning their medals yesterday. Well, we are 5 days from the Quad State Herf and I can hardly contain myself. I am checking out the weather for the week and we have light flurriers off and on through out it. Here is what NOAA has so far and I'm sure it will change as the weathere guessers have been off lately:

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=West+Point&state=NY&site=OKX&textField1=41.3623&textField2=-74.0273

I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys a few of your favorites through out it...... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on since 0330(3:30am) since we had a scheduled "Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call" at 0400(4am). The roads are pretty crappy right now especially on the mountain that a majority of us come over to get to West Point. Hopefully the road crews get out there and salt / sand the pavement to lower the number of fender benders that will occur today. Anyway, I hope everyone has a safe one and enjoy the day as much as possible...... :dance:

Oh yeah, we are 3 days and a wake up from the Quad State Herf!!!

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on since 0330(3:30am) again since we had another scheduled "Adverse Weather Condition Conference Call" at 0400(4am). This time, we have a "Code Red" until 0930(9:30am) and then "Code White" for the remainder of the day:

(USMA Snow Policy (Non-emergency positions)

"WEST POINT IS CODE WHITE UNTIL (stated time, or, all day)." The West Point Snow Policy is in effect until the stated time, or all day. Employees, who might be prevented from reporting to work, should be granted annual leave, accrued compensatory time or LWOP if they prefer. Employees still need to contact their supervisor for approval. Specific procedures for requesting leave in these circumstances are at the discretion of each activity.

"WEST POINT IS CODE RED UNTIL (slated time)" Employees should not report until the announcement time. Supervisors will excuse absences without charge to leave for all employees affected whether or not leave was previously approved. Employees who do not report for work by the announced time will be charged leave for the remainder of their absence if it was properly requested and approved.

http://www.westpoint.edu/WeatherConditions/

Tomorrow, they are predicting another 10 to 15 inches of snow which will most likely shut West Point down for the day and I was already planning on taking Friday off to get the goodie bags and stuff together for the Quad State Herf. I hope everyone has a good day and if your out there in this wintery mix, please be careful and watch out for the other guy as well...... :tu

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on since 0330(3:30am). As a result of this morning's weather call and the predictions of our weather guessers, West Point is a "Code Red" all day.

"WEST POINT IS CODE RED ALL DAY." Only employees in emergency positions should report to work. Employees in non-emergency positions should not report to work until their next regularly scheduled workday.

As far as the Quad State Herf goes, I have talked with the owner of the Meadowbrook and we are on no matter what. "No amount of snow, sleet, or rain will pull me away from this thing". There are already S/BOTL traveling in this direction and I wish you the safest traveling possible. The same goes for everyone tomorrow and Saturday as well. Give yourselves a little more time and make it to the event safely. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys........ :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Well, the Quad State Herf was another success even though it didn't go off as initially planned. We took the worst of things and made the best out of it. Thanks to everyone for coming out and for being part of history. There are still thousands of homes without power since Thursday and the roofers got the snow off my home yesterday taking the weight off it it allowing us back it. It's time now to recover and close this out as another successful fund raiser for the Warrior Transition Unit (Wounded Warriors). I hope everyone has a great week and enjoys...... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. Weather wise, the weather guessers are calling for no more that an inch or two between tonight and tomorrow and that's it for a while:

I think we've see the one major storm of the year and I hope that's it for the decade as well. I hope everyone that was affected by it is recovering and getting back to the normal day to day operations. Enjoy the day and relax...... :ss

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. There's not to much going on right now except for the winter clean up of last weeks major snow storm. The NHL is back on and spring training down in Florida and Arizona is on as well. I hope everyone has a happy "Hump Day" and enjoys....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the Killer Beans Electric Chair™ Espresso is on. Well, with Spring Training now in full action, it was good to see the Yankees on the TV yesterday win over the Pirates 6 to 3. We are exactly 31 day from Opening Day which means that the spring is near and we can put this nasty winter behind us. Today being Thusday, we'll be at Schlesinger's Cigar Bar / Hudson Valley Cigars this evening enjoying primo stogies and talking about this past Saturday's Quad State Herf. As I informed Sean (BigMacFU) earlier, we raised $9450 of which $630 was over-head, so we cleared $8820. When I informed the Wounded Warrior folks, they were totally blown away. It makes me feel so good to be able to do this and hopefully next year we do it in the late summertime instead. I hope everyone has a great day and gets to enjoy a favorite cigar or two as well....... :)

[Stogieman]

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. We had a good time at Schlesinger's last night with the normal Thursday night crowd along with with a few new faces. We enjoyed watching the Rangers vs. Pennguins hockey game while smoking a few primo ceegars. This morning Bill (Bravo Lima) and I will be presenting the Warrior Transition Unit (WTU) the monies we raised last Saturday at the QSH. It will be a proud moment as these guys mean a lot to me as they do to a lot of you. This weekend is filled with numerous sports to enjoy ranging from NASCAR, NHL, NBA and preseason MBL. I hope everyone has a relaxing one filled with a few of your favorites through out it....... :D

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=West+Point&state=NY&site=OKX&textField1=41.3623&textField2=-74.0273

Yesterday's NASCAR race in Martinsville, VA was rained out and rescheduled to today at 1200(noon) on FOX. At least the NCAA basketball games were on and here is the set up for the Final Four:
