What cigar is everyone enjoying for a little hurricane party? I'm savoring a FFP. Stay safe!

Don't think many are finding the storm a reason to party.

Sandy is a *****. Mean assed gal, for sure. She popped up right as my wife and I were leaving on a cruise including a stop in Nassau. Sandy stopped those plans. They had to cancel the Nassau stop. Then, we spent 3 days at sea, riding out waves that rolled a huge-ass ship like a toy. Got into port in Jacksonville, Fla on Saturday morning, made it to Va. Beach that evening, being chased by Sandys rain and wind for 9 hours. Spent today getting to the Washington DC area (wife in a nursing contract here). Chased by rain and wind. I guess we will ride out the next several days in the hotel (hospital for her). Maybe, the weather will clear and I can catch a plane back to Bama sometime this weekend????

Nothing good out of this witch for me to celebrate, for sure!

I'm enjoying going to bed after working 4 to 12a and going back to work at 8a until 12a, and I'm hoping they don't make us stay another shift on top of that. I'm sure Boston won't get hit hard. Good luck to everyone else in the upper NE, East Coast area.

Wishing everybody the best luck in the storm, not supposed to hit here until later tonight.
I know a couple of my good BOTL are in the direct path in NJ, best wishes to you guys. I will keep you all in my thoughts.

We will be having a hurricane party tonight, not to celebrate the storm but to make the most of a bad situation. I do not mean that to be offensive in any way to those impacted more than myself by the storm. It is a serious matter for sure.

I'm in Upstate NY, and the winds are beginning to pick up quickly this morning. Grocery shelves are empty. Winds expected to hit 85mph today. Trees will come down and power will go out with that! Just hope Sandy doesn't stall, and just moves through in a day or two so we can get back to normal.

So I'm thinking that even my torch lighter might not work in that wind. Has anyone here used a blow torch before? I need advice.

I can use my triple flame in the car with the windows down going 80... so maybe it will work for you...

as for the blow torch... I am no expert... but so long as it burns butane and not propane I don't think it would affect the flavors... propane is a dirtier gas...
