I guess i'm an addict cause I don't need anyone around to enjoy a good smoke. Sh** the best i've had were when I was alone. When I get a good smoke alone I thank GOD and the little people that grow/roll them for the experience. I da** sure don't need some needy jack*** talking to me while I enjoy the fruit of this earth. Where is it written that man needs company to be pleased?? I have watched many earthly events by my self and enjoyed them, a friend or family member along is a bonus. The monkey on my back has a cutter and a light.

Couldn't agree more Rick! To smoke with friends is a bonus, not a necessity! I smoke 90% of the time alone on my balcony. In my opinion, that's the beauty of a fine cigar; it is an event, not something done to satisfy a need or craving. I see people at work always running down to grab a smoke break, and they're back in 10 mintutes. When I choose to enjoy a cigar, I am committing the next 1-2 hours. Maybe my IPOD accompanying me, or an adult beverage of some sort. I do have plenty of cigar smoking friends, and all are welcome to join me, but I can find immense pleasure in the quiet solitude after a hectic day of fighting rush hour traffic and irate clients.
