I just want to talk cigars...

[guado]

I notice more and more that I just love talking about cigars.

I like talking about the history, the process of making them. My likes dislikes etc....

I wish the smoke friendly B&M's around me weren't so snobbish about bringing your own. I would love to have a place like (I thinkit was drew) said that he pays $20/yr to go to just to smoke.

To me that would be GREAT....smoke my own stash in a comfortable environment with awesome BOTLS to talk with. Heck I Would pay $10/mo for that. I just hate going somewhere OVER paying for sticks just to have great convo on cigars. Worth it...YES, but when I have a cabinet humi approaching full it pains me to pay for a smoke I have already.

Which is why on days like this when I am off of work I sit here and hit "refresh" a million times just to see if there is any more posts.

So this is just my little tidbit of info on my life. The smoking B&M I have around me is nice but the owner doesn't really talk much cigars. He likes them, smokes them but he is a business man.

My favorite place(I am sure most of yo know who) is aweosme but I just can't smoke there regularly...it is a small walk in humi and not a hangout place(until his new place gets built, then it is GAME ON). But this owner LOVES talking cigars, doing crap with cigars(we were laser engraving on them the other day for fun, actually turns out pretty f'n cool), and disected a rocky 90 for fun. Only problem is, he is trying to run a business.

So I guess I just can;t wait for his new place with a lounge. Nothing better than a smoking B&M with an owner that kicks ass.

So this will be the start of my rambling thread. Throw in your info/random comment of the day here!

Maybe I'll go mow my lawn or something...

I decided I am going to hint to my wife to enroll me into the Cigar rolling classes offered locally all the time in my area. I think it would be fun. Not that I would ever "roll my own" I think it would just offer me a greater appreciation of a flawless wrapper. Some of these cigars we smoke are rediculously immaculate. It is an amazing thing!!

You could always start your own cigar smoking club. You could charge people 20 bucks a year to come smoke in your garage (Or wherever you smoke) with you. Bonus is that you don't have to go anywhere. I could use a place like that too, the wife isn't a big fan of the smoke so can't do it inside. And, living in PA, there are severe limitations on when I can do it outside and not freeze to death.

I wish there was a place close to me where I could smoke. None of my friends really smoke cigars and those that do only smoke the minis or cigarillos.

I like air conditioning. Trust me if I had the motivation I would build a smoking room...but in all reality I hate smelling cigar smoke when I am not smoking one. So having a room, even with filters, exhaust, etc would smell horrible to me(I have a very sensitive nose).

So going somewhere is a total bonus becuase it is cool, I smoke and leave.

My house is nice, I love grabbing a stogie and sitting on the dock listening to the birds but it's florida. 75% of the year is HOT and HUMID.

Just out of curiosity, who/when/where on the rolling classes? I might like to do that some time, and Tampa is in my normal driving routine...

guado, I feel like you very much of the time. I enjoy talking about cigars and drinking and smoking cigars and drinking and talking more about cigars. I love this forum because I have met some great people and it feels good to be able to read and post about one of my favorite hobbies. I don't have a decent B&M within a reasonable distance from my house. I have to travel into Virginia, which kind of sucks since it is so far...well, it's not THAT far, but the traffic sucks. Anyway, reading your post has really made miss herfing with my friends here in the DC area.

(So, M1101 and Juan, just thinking of you guys!)

I am waiting on my favorite B&M to have his new location built which WILL have a smoking room. I am basically chomping at the bit till it is done.

Bunky-Sounds good. I just know the woman doesn't like to talk about cigars forever....
