OK, so Just to please Amy, because she is keeping me on her blog friend list even though I haven't written in this thing for, well for a very long time.
So I have a new vice, since I gave up alcohol and anything else . . . I needed a hobby, well, I guess, I just like it, or something, but yeah, my, my.
So to ramble on a bit more,
I've smoked cigars on and off since I was 16, but I guess I never really knew anything about it.
There is an entire culture and world of cigar smokers, with their own language and everything.
You thought people and fine wines were knowledgable about their passion, well, at least I did. Let me tell you something, cigars smokers, know there stuff, they know it inside and out, they can tell you where a cigar comes from just by looking at it, well sort of, but yeah.
I'm starting to learn, I'm on to 3 Humidors, and one I'm holding for a friend, so I can hold something like 100 cigars, the scary part is, that's not really enough!
Cigars can be pricey, but if you know where to look, they are actually very reasonable.
Now here's my thing, I buy cigars online for my humidors at home, which saves me about 70% off every cigar, if not more, and then I go to my favorite cigar shop, buy one from their walk-in humidor, and spend all day sitting there, watching movies, talking, etc. It's incredible!
I guess that's what I really love about cigars, no matter what, you have to sit down and enjoy a cigar. You can't run around all active and stuff while smoking a cigar like you can with cigarettes. When you light a cigar, you had better be prepared to relax for about and hour, maybe even more! There is nothing you can do, except sit down, in a nice comfy leater chair, kick back with a cold beverage, a good book, great movie, some incredible friends, and just enjoy.
Don't stop and smell the roses, stop and smoke a cigar, smelling roses is over too quick, a cigar takes time, and ages better than any wine, given the right conditions.
