RabbitAir MinusA2 Air Purifier
I am something of a hedonist. I like fast cars, nimble motorcycles, expensive liquor, fine cigars, and loose women. The cigar vice is the most recently acquired. I got into it for kink reasons and I SWORE UP AND FUCKING DOWN that I would not nerd out about.
The little guy was my 2nd upgrade. I keep my mooch cigars there.
That lasted about a year. I stared out simply buying reasonably priced sticks and smoking maybe 6 times a year at special events. I had no preference other than liking ‘dark’ cigars. For a complete fucking chooch, most of the cigar stores treated me remarkably well and I was able to blissfully move along in ignorance. But the longer I smoked, the more I started to learn things.
But over the next year I became enamored with it. I started buying 3 cigars for every one I smoked. My palette started to develop. I began to determine my favorite brands and particular styles of cigars. I’m a big Dunbarton Tobacco & Trust guy, and enjoy just about everything Steve Saka has done. I like Oliva, CRE, My Father, and several others. I have figured out I tend to prefer a gauge of 52 or less, but at least 40. I even have preferences on what type of cut depending on the shape of the cigar. I bought my first humidor that would hold 10-15 cigars. I bought my second that would hold 50
I’ve moved on to buying cigars by the box. I won’t discuss how much money I have invested in cigars. I had a ‘coolidor’ made by the simple expedient of throwing some Boveda humidity packs into a Yeti cooler. Then ran out of room with that. So I moved onto a cabinet humidor that is rated to hold 3000 cigars. It’s probably 1/3rd full. I have full boxes of things I bought a year ago or more that I’m aging. Recently, a close friend I consider a brother, moved out of the country and I acquired his collection with cigars that are 10-30 years old. Some of the individual cigars in that collection are north of $100 per stick.
I’m fast approaching SABLE (Stash Acquired Beyond Life Expectancy) [A term stolen from the fiber arts folks my wife taught me] and I’m okay with that. I also like to provide cigars to my friends when they are over hanging out. Having a cigar in the hot tub with a nice bourbon or aged rum is hard to beat of an evening.
As good as it works, I think I am long past being able to be purified
The downside is I could only smoke outside, which during the spring/summer/fall is great. But in the winter when it’s raining heavy it’s not so much fun to freeze my nose off trying to smoke. Takes away from the experience. Here at Ram’s Head I have a spare room that’s my office where I have my humidor and all my gear. So for Christmas I ordered and received a RabbitAir MinusA2 air purifier. It is configured to remove cigar odor. And recommended by several online cigar focused websites for a smoke eater.
This model is designed to clean 815 sq. ft, to completely change over the air 2x per hour. At a cost of $600 it is reasonably priced. The design of the model I selected is a sleek black square. It can sit on the floor or be mounted on the wall. On high, it will change 408 sq. ft. room’s air 4x. They offer several ‘art’ options; Van Gogh’s Starry Night, The Great Wave, and a few others. But the glossy black with blue lights fits the industrial aesthetic of my office.
I used it for the first time 1/5 and I can recommend it. It is relatively quiet. And it eats smoke like HM eats ass. To break it in, I had an aged Aging Room Nicaragua Quadro over the course of 2 hours. I could see the unit pulling the smoke toward it. And a couple hours after finishing the room did not smell of stale cigars. The next day there was a faint cigar odor in the room, but not that stale disgusting smell, and it faded out over the course of the day.
Being able to sit in my office chair and have a cigar, sip some aged rum and relax in the warm was excellent. I can endorse the product if you are looking for a solution for purifying the air for cigars. It also works for other odors and allergens.

Somehow, these were the first words my eyes alit on when I opened the page.

I was looking for a metaphor and that one seemed the right one.
These are my favorite cigars: Acid Blondie

I should confess that they are just a grownup version of Swisher Sweets, but man, do they smell good. I only have 1 or 2 a year.
They are a popular brand. I like Drew Estates, particularly their Pappy Van Winkle that has the leaves fermented in old pappy barrels.
That is a filthy habit I have no interest in picking up. And I smoked cigarettes for 30 years.
I will take a cigar as a cheap cigarette substitute, but I want the real thing DAMNIT! Camels or gtfo.
(quit 5+ years ago after being a 30-year smoker. And now I want one.)
Juul is my crutch now. It works – no desire for a real cigarette any more.
When I got seriously into backpacking, I also started smoking a pipe. I can’t overstate how well these things go together. This looks like something I could use if I ever want to be able to sell my condo…
That does sound like it goes together. One of the folks in my group of regular smokers has a pipe. He always looks classy when smoking it. The only time he looks classy.
I am curious what a pipe tastes like. It does look classy AF.
It depends what you put in it. Pipe tobacco goes from mild to chemical weapon.
I like the smell of cherry pipe tobacco the best, but actually smoking it is not that great.
I usually smoke a cherry/Virginia Cavendish blend, from a place up in Frederick.
Straight cherry tobacco is usually too hot.
Yeah. Gimme a good English blend any time.
When I still hunting, coming in from the field and rolling a smoke went together exceptionally well. I can see how a pipe would be similar, but I had to quit packing around the same time.
SABLE
Thank you for that acronym.
Glances at bookcases, DVD cabinet, Games folder, nods sadly.
Looks at reloading supplies and ammo . 2021 I shot about 5 to confirm zero, 1 on a deer. I have reloads 50 years old, still shoot well. Some a little obscure.
I do plan on building up a liquor collection for my wake, which by definition is SABLE.
You’re welcome. I thought it was clever when my wife told me about it.
Very old crafters’ acronym. Fun fact: collecting supplies is its OWN HOBBY.
“By George, you’ve got it!”
Yeah, that is co-opted due to tools and books.
” I got into it for kink reasons”
What sort of kink reasons?
Cigar Service and Cigar Play.
Cigar service consists of having the cigar bottom present cigars for the top to select, doing the cutting, toasting, and lighting of the cigar as an act of service/submission. Providing drink service, providing an ashtray, kneeling and being ready to be useful, and otherwise dealing with the gear and process so that the cigar top only has to enjoy the cigar, the drink, and the bottom. Actual play can involve any number of activities including; using the ash, cherry (never directly on the skin), and smoke to create sensations of hot and cold, eating ash, acting as a cigar holder, etc.
Pulling a Bill Clinton is usually regarded as a chooch move.
Narrator: There are more than a few chooch tops in the world.
You got that shit right.
I learn new things every day!

Seems like some of us in flyover country are more than a year behind the coasts, PONick
OK, thanks, never heard of that.
For me, it’s up there with rope. I’m normally moving at a 100mph so something where I have to slow down and take my time appeals.
A shooting buddy of mine once had a picture (100% G-rated) taken of him out on the range, smoking a cigar. That picture ended up on the website of a BDSM top with a *serious* smoking fetish. Of course, all his friends found out. It was fairly hilarious.
I can imagine that led to no end of breaking balls and hilariity.

Ugh. I love resin 🙁
It’s weak. It’s heavy. It has to be assembled with superglue. It has a release agent that you need to wash off it you want your paint or glue to stick. It doesn’t like to be cut by hobby knives, so you work it with saws, files, and sandpaper. Oh, and the dust is poisonous, you don’t want to breathe it in.
🙁
Oh, yeah, and it loves to warp coming out of the mold, so you gotta fix the shape by warming and bending it… even if it’s a giant slab.
Of course the biggest warp is in the biggest piece 🙁
I’m not even sure how I’m going to straighten this damn thing out.
Am I going to have to build a jig just to get the pieces in the right shape? Maybe. Maybe.
That lasted about a year. I stared out simply buying reasonably priced sticks and smoking maybe 6 times a year at special events. I had no preference other than liking ‘dark’ cigars. For a complete fucking chooch, most of the cigar stores treated me remarkably well and I was able to blissfully move along in ignorance. But the longer I smoked, the more I started to learn things.
I went through a period of enjoying cigars. I didn’t nerd out about it. Sometimes I think about picking it up again.
If I decide to pick it up again, I will make a note of this device.
I won’t claim it’s a healthy habit, but the minor increase in likelihood of mouth cancer for someone who smokes less than 1 a day is more than offset by the stress relief in my opinion.
I agree.
And thanks!
I’ve seen some studies that show that moderate pipe smokers tend to live longer. Most likely it is the fact that they tend to be mellow sorts in general and the habit is a relaxing one.

There’s a lot more to Swing Dance than what we did back in the high school gym. Our version of R & R was a lot tamer.

The aftermath
Thanks for this!
I smoked cigars for years and slowly stopped. Right now I’ve no desire to start again. Of course I’ve probably got about a dozen left in the humidor.
You are welcome. I wonder if I’ll ever reach that point? Did you simply lose interest in it or were there other reasons?
Mostly lost interest. No particular reason. And since it’s not the most healthy of things didn’t see a reason to start up again.
Cool and funny review Creosote. I occasionally smoke a pipe so one day it may come in handy (presently just smoke out on the front porch as our house is super small). I enjoy smoking spliffs with whatever grass I have handy mixed with British or Dutch hand rolling tobacco with a rolled light cardboard tip and Raw papers. My favorite is Golden Virginia and the original Dutch (not American version) of light blue Drum. As you can’t buy this in the States it means acquisition can be challenging. They changed the rules on hand rolling tobacco a few years back and a lot of the Euro companies stopped importing to the States. Generally now I just stock up in Mexico when I go down there.
I used to really like Drum – so you can just plug that into a pipe and smoke it? Must… resist…
/takes a draw on my Juul
You could I suppose, but it isn’t pipe tobacco. When I smoke a pipe generally smoke a Peterson blend of pipe tobacco. The Drum that you can buy for the last decade or so is not made in Holland and I personally don’t really like it. I like the shag cut and not the pencil shaving cut that is common with American toll tobacco.
Do they still sell Bali Shag? That was popular with people who smoke chillum.
Yeah that’s a US brand I believe. I find it a bit harsh myself although that’s what I smoked when I couldn’t get my Euro brands.
Oh, you said spliffs, duh.
I haven’t had it since the early 90’s. I remember Bali Shag, too.
/fetches another drink
I enjoy smoking spliffs with whatever grass I have handy mixed with British or Dutch hand rolling tobacco with a rolled light cardboard tip and Raw papers.
The first time I was in Amsterdam I went into a coffeeshop. I asked about their joints. I knew that Euros like mixing tobacco with marijuana. I didn’t have rolling papers. The guy told me that their joints were “pure marijuana, no tobacco”. I bought one. I borrowed a lighter from him. I lit up in the coffeeshop.
Nope. Marijuana mixed with tobacco.
Oh well. I’m committed.
At least they didn’t throw me out for smoking tobacco indoors, which is not allowed in Amsterdam. You can smoke marijuana indoors, but not tobacco.
I lived in the Dam for two years which is where I picked up that habit. No one smokes pure weed there. When I lived there in 2005-8 you could smoke tobacco pretty much anywhere. I imagine that the coffee shops don’t enforce the no tobacco smoking rule if they are ones that the locals frequent.
Yeah, there’s a dozen hookah joints within a block of my house, but of course you can’t smoke tobacco there. Progressivism isn’t the most internally consistent ideology, is it.
Hookah is tobacco that’s soaked in fruit juices and spices. But it’s an Arab cultural thing and so the proggies don’t want to mess with it. I haven’t had one in a while. Those are real nice when done right.
I didn’t know it’s tobacco. But yeah, I meant you can’t smoke cigarettes there.
These places are pretty Arab-centric so it’s not likely I’ll try it. I’ve heard there are hipster versions in trendier neighborhoods but I’ll probably pass on that, too.
When I see a Creosote Achilles post, I expect it to be about polygamy and other forms of sexual deviancy. What is this?
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
Apparently. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
I can’t be up to perversion all the time.
So, sometimes, as others have said, a cigar is just a cigar.

She can smoke my cigar any time.
Yummy.
Two smoke smoke >> cigar smoke
Especially if you can run Castor 927
Amsoil, dude!
Also “two stroke smoke” was my nickname back in highschool
As a former RD rider and smoker, I would say =!=
I’ve tried to cultivate a cigar habit. I failed.
How would you say the purifier would work with more plebian smoke?
On the one hand, a cigarette (or a joint) produces way less smoke than a cigar, but if you’re smoking more of them the amount of smoke per day may be more as one usually smokes more of them. It may not alleviate the odor entirely, but I think it would certainly drastically decrease it.
Does anyone know of a way to get past the Android PIN screen on a Moto G6? I know the answer is “not without the PIN”, but I’m really hoping someone has a clever way in. I can’ t get into my Mom’s phone.
I got her number. You need it?
If The Bro is telling you it isn’t the time for shit talking…
I don’t think you realize what is going on in this situation, Straf. MikeS’s mother passed.
Actually, thank you bro and seriously sorry, Mike.
No worries, Straff. When I posed the question I fully expected someone here to say something along those lines. ‘sall good.
Thx. We both went through it recently. Tough times.
Yup. I remember you recently lost your mom. Sucks so bad, don’t it? Fuck.
Do you know her Google account name and password?
yes
Supposedly if you put in the wrong pin multiple times it will allow you to reset it with her Google credentials.
I’ll do some more research along those lines. Dad and I were trying all the possible number combinations we thought she might use and all of a sudden I got a warning the the phone would be wiped after 9 more wrong attempts so I got nervous and stopped.
This is why my best friend has a list of my usernames and passwords.
My kids and ex-wife do not need to see the porn I have downloaded to my computer.
We have all her passwords, but no the PIN to get into the phone and with all the fucking two step verification shit, we need to get into the phone to acknowledge the second step.
Aye. Sorry for your frustration.
Was yer mom a freak?
6969
She most certainly was not, but I do appreciate the help.
You never know!
Have you tried her birthday? I’ll bet that’s what my Mom uses on her phone.
I didn’t try her b-day because she was very security conscious. A different password for every website. Most of them random combinations of words/numbers. She did everything right except write down the PIN to her phone. Or, maybe it’s none of our damn business what’s in her phone and we go through the normal processes to get into her accounts and just wipe the phone. The first of many small decisions for Dad and us.
I encourage everyone to have all this down in writing and accessible to someone in the event of your passing. The sorrow is enough. Having to play amateur hacker to make sure the bills get paid sucks.
Sorry to hear about your Mom. Best wishes to you and your family during this tough time.
Thanks, Pud. I appreciate that.
Try a web search. Looks like there are a bunch of youtube videos, and such
Sorry, for your loss 🙁
Thanks Count. I was web searching stuff earlier and was trying to sift through the chaff and got frustrated and through my hands up. I’ll try a YouTube search.
Is it linked to a google account/reset password or pin with google account? Maybe can gain access via
https://support.google.com/accounts/troubleshooter/6357590?hl=en
Everything I’m seeing says I need to completely wipe the phone. Which means we can use the phone to verify notification requests, but we lose everything saved on it. Fuck.
It’s a weird screen. My phone, it starts up and then you need to enter the pin to unlock it. But if you get a call, you can still answer. The screen I’m getting on hers say enter the pin to start Android. She apparently has it set on super-secure. When I call her phone it doesn’t even ring. It’s almost like it’s at a DOS prompt waiting for you to enter the proper sequence to start Windows.
Can you go to the carrier store once you have the death certificate and probate documents?
That’s probably where we are at. And really, that’s the what I expected and think it should be. And maybe not even then. I mean, if she left us no info to get in, shouldn’t the default answer be “no” when we ask to get in?
A conversation for another day.
Thanks for all the suggestions. I appreciate them and the condolences. I think it’s time to just set the phone aside and revisit it with a clearer head.
I get a White House intern to hold my cigars.
My boss is a prog but at the same time a (former) smoker (like myself). One time we shared a bit of a cigar, or as much of it as I could tolerate. Just a fleeting memory from years ago. It’s not as bad as those fucking cigarillos that The Youth smoke, though. OMG that stench.
Oh fuck now I remember that I have to start/complete my self-review this weekend. Shit.

Excellent review, even having quit smoking. And thank you for adding two new terms to the lexicon: SABLE and chooch.
Is the cabinet humidor a cool dry place? Seems like it must be humidity controlled on the plus side. I was thinking about gun powder storage.
Not too humid; not too dry. Goldilocks approves.
Probably won’t keep powder as dry as desired.
Mine has a Oasis humidifier in it. It regulates the humidity via a digital control panel. You can see the wire in the glass door. The particular model I have also sends messages to my phone if it gets out of range.
Heh. SABLE. My quilting wife taught me that. She’s more like SABLE^4.
So Nancy Pelosi apparently told the cop who shot Ashley Babbitt to do so? Or at least yelled something at him and pointed to her before he went over and shot her.

I bought my niece and nephew all of James Clavell’s Asian series, and then I bought them basically all of Neal Stephenson’s books. I love being the childless uncle, buying my sister’s progeny all the books that made me who I am today, a childless uncle buying
Well, at least I’m not molesting them.
I have seconder brothers. They are a source of great shame to me. If they produce any children, they will be mere human children. Seconders at that. But me? I will produce The First That Will Change Everything. What can a soft, pudgy, pinkish little lump of cells do to compete with that? It’s like the baby won’t even try. It will shit all over itself and scream until you clean it. The First will transform humanity. It will launch a new era.
My Fiirsting man-womb is superior to your sister’s mere female womb.
Sometimes a man just wants his affection for James Clavell recognized, you know, he doesn’t want to feel so alone He wants some camaraderie among those who enjoy that incomparable tale. The ersatz samurai through the discovery of a soviet spy, it all comes out.
Is it so hard to leave this man alone?
I remember loving the hell out of Shogun. I should re-read.
And “One of Us! One of Us!”
I vaguely remember seeing bits of the TV mini-series with my dad. Might be fun to check it out as an adult.
Just looked it up and saw Richard Chamberlain was in it. He was also in The Thorn Birds. Was he Mr. Mini-Series in the 80’s?
Yes, yes he was. Made all the ladies sigh. Which was awkward, for Richard, I imagine.
…and Centennial.
He was also Jason Bourne
If by “awkward” you mean it made his pants get tighter, then yes, I’m sure.
He was a looker, to be sure.
#nohomo
I just saw that. I have no recollection of that ’88 series. I suppose I was too busy with either basketball practice or chasing pussy.
#nohomo
Not, however, the case for Richard.
Oh that’s right. And he adopted his partner. I forgot all about that.
Yeah, a little weird but it was expressly for “estate” reasons, so it’s cool, I guess.
I didn’t know any of that.
I vaguely remember Shogun as Event Television – we even talked about it in 6th grade.
Yup.
I must have seen the mini-series first & read the book later. Wouldn’t have been picking up a book like that when I was 10.
I got the miniseries Bourne version on DVD awhile back because I had fond memories of it, and tbh I like it more than the modern version. mostly because the Jaclyn Smith version of Marie is closer to the book, which is a much better character. Franka Potente is a fine actress, but her Marie is pretty much useless luggage, whereas Book Marie is an active partner in the second half and is the one who really figures out what’s going on.
You made me think of this and this makes me laugh.
I’m alone in the world.
Woe is me.
You are never alone when you are a Glib.
Also, you just said you have nieces and nephews to spoil.
Precisely – there are those who are truly alone but you’re not one of them. Go spoil those kids and purchase their affection.

Good Morning any early Glibs.
Have to drive to Mo today, picking up my impregnated sheep, and 3 more.
Issues……
Lady is way to green/granola for me. A sheep got pink eye, but treats an infection with Vitamin A. Pink eye can cause spontaneous abortions. Vet could not make it.
Sooooo Now i will have to evaluate 7 sheep, in the van, inject antibiotics, worm them on the way home (tomorrow).
Then isolate them in the chicken run.
Nowhere end of the world, but annoying.
Hope all of us have excellent, no drama weekends.

Fortunately the Big A is not a hereditary problem in my family, if it catches me it’ll be a first (Take that, Bro). Loneliness is always a problem but Glibs are an asset, even reading the exploits of others is a big help. The physical can’t seem to keep up, however.
The fear of the phony political scare has kept a lot of old people isolated, it is just criminal to treat old people like they are Typhoid Marys.
