It's Not Supposed to be This Hard...Is It?

It's Not Supposed to be This Hard...Is It?

Life can be a lot and we can often apply a lot of pressure to ourselves to do it right. All this does is increase blood pressure, stress, etc. This is where discipline comes in. Learn to chill. Smoke a cigar.

What's the Point of God?

We may not have answered the question satisfactorily, but I think we got to the root of the problem and can get you started. It is not about religion by the way. Also smoked a Plasencia and H. Uppman cigars and discovered an incredibly talented artist in Fort Worth, Kim Jackson. Check out her unique and inspiring work at kjackart.com or on instagram at @kjackart.

Bones, Buns, and Burnout

Bones, Buns, and Burnout

The Bones are a mystery this time around, and the buns have been blocked; but burnout is real and we all encounter it at some point. But there is something we can do about it, and it can involve smoking a cigar if you are so inclined.

Fire Gods, Lunatics, and Consciences
