A little Daron Calvados and General Classic Blend are joining me for this snus blog post. If you begin to wonder why it becomes less coherent or more genius, that could be it.
I picked up a tin of Catch Raspberry Pepper the other day.
Pretty sweet. Nice flavor. But it doesn’t rank with Catch Elder Lime, [...]
Lots of stuff in the past couple weeks. I’ve been neglecting the snus blog a little to work on a non-snus related site I’m putting together. More on that later….
First, Grov Kardus. Paper is not the best way to store something moist. My Ettan Kardus grew mold on it. I don’t blame Ettan. I blame [...]
Las Vegas is the most important city in the western hemisphere, and many consider it to be the soul of the United States. I’m not sure if I agree with that, but it does have some of the best America has to offer the world. For example, it’s the one American city where there are [...]
A few small items before I tell you about the pizza…
Yesterday I bought six rolls of the new General Classic Blend.
Here’s why:
It’s good. It was a great deal. And I’m not a hypocrite. I insisted you buy it, so I did, too.
60 tins of this stuff is 900 portions. If that were in 24 potion [...]
Two new General snus are set to launch Monday — General Classic Blend and General Nordic Mint — online and in three cities for trials at convenience stores. These two snus will be, for all intents and purposes, the snus you may be able to get at a seven-eleven in the next year or so [...]
A few days ago, I wrote about how to fly. Here’s the result:
That’s me. From Austin to Chicago, I slept. And on the way back, I slept. A couple weeks ago, from Austin to Salt Lake, I slept. To Twin Falls, Zzzzz. To Sacramento, Zzzzz. And back to Austin. Yep, I look like a nerd. [...]
Back before I started this blog, I used to fly to Los Angeles every month for work. Other than turning me into a douchebag, I also picked up some moderate traveling acumen. This past week I took a little trip out through Idaho, Nevada and California, and I’ve been thinking about what is absolutely necessary [...]
Last September, my Swedish Match Rep said something was coming out this summer for brick and mortars.
Well, it looks like he was telling the truth. I got a cryptic email saying that on May 2 a new snus will be released in Portland, Boise and Pittsburgh. I assume these are test markets. It also said [...]
I sometimes hate telling you about cool contests going on because it decreases my chances of winning. Today I feel generous.
Go make friends with Frank on Facebook. He’s going to give a roll of snus per week to one of his friends. Right now, he has just shy of 200, so your odds over the [...]
On Tuesday, I went to see the Deftones play in Downtown Austin. While I was down there, I spotted the General Bus. It was kind of interesting.
On the bus were three chicks at computers. I sat down with one of them. She asked, “Have you heard of General Snus?”
“Yes,” I said.
“Do you smoke or dip?”
“No.”
From [...]
