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.......

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.......

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. Yesterday's 56 degrees was a big change from last week's 20s - 30s. I hope that the winter season is ending for us and nicer weather days are coming soon.

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Well, it's "Hump Day' today which means that we only have 2 more days of work until the weekend. The only problem we have is that after today they are calling for rain through next Tuesday:

I would definitely welcome rain versus snow any day as I'm tired of shoveling it and cleaning the Jeeps off after each snow fall. Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys......

Good morning all and yes, the coffee has been on for a while. We had a good time last night at Schlesingers enjoying top shelf ceegars while watching the ND vs. Pitt basketball game which came down to the final seconds of the game. This weekend the weather guessers are calling for a lot of rain still, more to follow. We have a conference call this morning with the National Weather Service so they will give us the updates as to when it will start and how much. Anyway, I hope everyone stays dry and has a great weekend, T.G.I.F.......

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on as always. I hung out with the guys yesterday at Schlesinger's smoking primo sticks for most of the day while watching some great college basketball and staying dry. The majority of the storm has passed and there was a lot of damage everywhere from fallen trees to burning buildings. Some areas have severe flooding with no power and I hope everyone will recover soon. Today we'll watch some more hoops on the Tv and have a number of our relatives come over and enjoy a nice cornbeef and cabbage dinner. I hope everyone has a great day and enjoys.......

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is finally on. I took today off to enjoy St Joseph's Day with Beth and one of my nephew's. We are planning to go to Pine Island, NY and visit one of their Polish markets and taste the local fare. Afterwards, we'll head over to the Warwick Valley Winery and do some wine tasting. I'm sure that a couple of ceegars will be smoked today as the weather is looking to be nice again. I hope everyone has a great day and you get to smoke a primo stick or two as well.......

Good morning all and yes, the coffee is on. Yesterday was another beautiful day outside, I went over to the cigar shop and the fellas had the table outside. This is probably my favorite time of the year, temps in the lower 70s and sunny, NASCAR season in full bloom, the MLB season about to start and the college basketball playoffs about to finish. Today we'll probably BBQ again and I'll definitely be watching the NASCAR race from Bristol which is one of my favorite tracks. I hope everyone has a great one as well and enjoys.......

I hope this is a sign of the type of spring / summer we'll have this year considered after the nasty winter we have experienced. Anyway, congrats to Jimmie Johnson and the entire Lowes racing team for winning yesterday's Food City 500 at Bristol, TN. For the highlights and the unofficial results, look here:
