If you going to smoke, smoke an Altria brand. Filthy habit, but I
enjoy the dividends.


Filthy habits are drinking to excess and endangering innocent lives.

I'd be willing to bet that drinking alcohol kills a hell of a lot more
people than cigars do.

Tom,
As a former smoker I always thought smoking was an enjoyable, filthy,
unhealthy habit. I understood non smokers who did not want to smell or
inhale 2nd hand smoke. Since the mid 80's I only smoked outside and
tried to make sure it was not blowing towards non smokers.

Even if 2nd hand smoke was not proven to unhealthy, the smell alone is
offensive to non cigar smokers, even cigarette smokers.

The thing I could never understand are those cigar clubs.
Can you imagine being in a room with a couple dozen people smoking all
different brands of stinky cigars? I'd probably puke on their shoes.
