90% of all the cigars I smoke on on Friday-Sunday, usually at night. I open my humidor and rely on one of the sticks to jump at me, usually takes about 30 seconds. Then I am out to my back patio with my cutter/punch and matches, it's not nearly as cold here as it is with some of you guys so I am not layered too much. I grab a chair (I am currently looking for a more comfortable chair). I don't know about others, but I prefer to smoke in the least amount of light as possible, it helps me unwind and drift off in my thoughts, so once I have cut or punch, all lights out. As I light, I take medium puffs and exhale right away. The rest of way I take small puffs and concentrate on the flavors, but I am still a noob in more that one sense. More than once, I have found myself in a sprawled out position just enjoying the stars, smoke and silence.....

When I have company or when I smoke with my wife around, it is a different experience. We are remodeling a game room right now, and unlike most places in LA smoking is encouraged. In these cases, it is smoke if you got em, drink it if you can handle it, and feel free to try any trick shots on the pool table you wish. Just so everyone knows I won 1st place in the worst pool player championship, and thats not intended as a joke, but thankfully, one of my friends is worse .
