rayder1 - I don't mean to pop your bubble, but smoking cigars is no better than smoking cigarettes. You may not smoke as many cigars as you would cigs, but think about it. As far as nicotine goes, each cigar has approximmately the nicotine of a pack of cigarettes. And if you smoked cigs and switched to cigars, it's a good bet that you inhale cigars. I do ... not as much as if I were smoking a cigarette, but I do inhale more than I am aware of sometimes. And it depends on how many you smoke ...
Bottom line, tobacco is tobacco ... and it is a carcinogen. If you are genetically prone to getting cancer, you will get cancer faster than those who are more resistant, as ther are those who never get it. Take George Burns for example. He smoked a reportedly 10 cigars a day with no ill effect.
There are many cases of people who smoke cigars getting lip, mouth or throat cancer. One famous one was Ulysses S. Grant, who died of throat cancer from smoking cigars ...
It's a crap shoot ... and all depends on how lucky you are.
