    Well, seems as if my European humour is going down like the proverbial lead ballon with some of our North American cousins, lol!

    Here, some cigar quotes to help the "WTF" brigade to calm down a little:

    "A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke." - Rudyard Kipling

    "I have made it a rule never to smoke more that one cigar at a time." - Mark Twain

    "The only way to break a bad habit was to replace it with a better habit.” (explaining why he switched from cigarettes to cigars) – Jack Nicholson

    and last, but by no means least:

    "I drink a great deal. I sleep a little, and I smoke cigar after cigar. That is why I am in two-hundred-percent form.” – Winston Churchill

    European sense of humor? Yep, I'm sure that's the problem here.

    The problem might be that in addition to many of us here not having any sense of context, we also struggle greatly with having sense of humor.

    Default Did you know that ..

    Ybor City near Tampa, Florida was once the cigar capital of the world. Many renown cigar producers from Cuba immigrated to Florida in the late 1800’s and Ybor became a flourishing cigar town with some 70 cigar factories.

    Blunt force trauma to the head ?
    It's the only explanation I can come up with.
