    Haha very funny! Let me ask... how had the bench "all the sudden" become... on fire?

    sorry for dragging this old thread up. but i just got done watching the movie 'the legend of 1900'. where 1900 lit a cigerette on a piano. probably not possible, but thought it deserved to be mentioned.

    I just bought a torch lighter a few weeks ago and am absolutely loving it. Before that, I used cigarette lighters that never seemed to light the cigars evenly. Once in a while, I used the kitchen stove which seemed to light the cigars more to my liking than the plastic disposables.

    Hey Joshua,

    Do you have a source for these? I fancy one for myself

    When at home I use one of those kitchen butane torch things that you can use for creme brule, bit difficult to carry in a pocket though.
    I thought it was a tampon joke!

    To each his own, but this is my experience. I used to use a Zippo but detected an unusual taste to my sticks so I stopped using it, and switched to Butane torches. I know several of you use Zippos and say that its not true, but to me, I did detect a taste.
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.

    I always lit my cheap-ass cigars (captain black, swisher etc.) with matches until all I had on hand was a friends zippo. I couldn't tell the difference, so I bought one. I haven't used it since I started smoking GOOD cigars though, so my answer may change.

    ok, i found out how the bench caught fire. he set a plastic soda cap on fire on the edge of the bench so that the liquid plastic could drip off the side in firey flame balls. the escapade went bad and the bench caught on fire. then he proceeded to light his smoke.
