I may have asked this question a long time ago. I'm sitting on my deck enjoying my favorite, an Arturo Fuente Flor-Fina. Any other cigar fans here?

There's a radio show that gets aired here that is all about cigars.  The host is kind of a character.

My personal favorite is an Upmann Vintage Cameroon Churchill, but I like trying new ones as I find them and have the money.

I was just going to tell a story from my youth. I worked as a maid at a seedy motel when I was 13 years old. At $1.85/hr, it beat the heck out of delivering papers and babysitting.

We came across an unopened package of swisher sweets left in a room that we were cleaning. We smoked, belched and scratched our crotches. It was very liberating.

My favorite: Rocky Patel Decade 6x60.

I buy the "seconds" from CI and Thompson. Little cosmetic blemishes but they taste the same as the first quality banded cigars. Cost a lot less.

My humidor is filled with Decades, RP Edge maduros (torpedo), and Perdomo Fresh Rolled Churchills.

Last night, my son and I sat out on the deck with Decades and Guinness. It was great. We also had blueberry pie with vanilla ice cream and coffee.

Look to the left- there I am!   :-)

Swisher Sweets get sold at gas stations and are about the size of a #2 pencil.  I hope not. :rotf:

I know and I feel very bad about that. You had a clincher subject title and I responded as I am wont to do with these topics.  :hyper:
