It's like join a cigar forum was the top resolution this year.

Welcome Tyler. Check out the first post for detailed rules, but in short, you just take whoever's up (jakethesnake currently) and send him smokes. Once that's rolling, you ask the question and someone picks you up

Consider posting an intro thread in yhe general discussion so the folks here can get to know you. Remember, waffles is NOT the correct answer

Jake, package will be going out tomorrow around lunchtime!

Now, since most know I'm not smoking anymore for health reasons; who wants to send Benja some smokes?

I just felt like it needed to be done. I need to get rid of a "few" more stogies, and I believe your collection is running seriously low......

It might be if I would stop breaking my own promises to stop buying, and of course the overly generous trades and unsolicited hits don't help. I'm actually pretty full. Got one giant tupidor with nothing but unopened boxes resting another half szed with loose sticks in various tray and boxes and a large counter top "library" glass faced one that is a mix. Then the 3 cannisters for stuff I'm smoking now.

So no...not low Mr Cat. Pulling out the 4th cannister to prepare and planning to do some re-arranging this weekend. Mrs 123 was smoking one a day with me for a while but she quit when the weather got cold.

Oh well, now you'll have enough for a couple weeks at least!

I always wished I could have gotten Mrs. Cat to smoke with me. She took a puff once, and didn't care for it AT ALL. She had no problems sitting outside with me while I smoked and we played backgammon with a few drinks though. I do miss smoking and the act of just staying still for a little while, but overall I feel better. I've lost 24 lbs since I quit smoking and drinking.....

Cat, congrats on the weight loss! I also stopped drinking last year. Between that and exercising, I’m down 40, I feel better as well. Curious why you decided to quit cigars too?

Jsnyder, congrats on your weight loss too!

My quitting was on the advice of my doctor, which led to the pleading of my wife, that if I wanted to live longer than my father (he died in 2017 at the age of 61), I needed to quit smoking and drinking right away. Some heart issues were noticed, including high blood pressure and a "mechanical" issue with my heart, possibly the start of AFIB or a faulty valve.

I've been feeling a lot better, but miss the smoking and drinking sometimes, especially after a stressful day.

I think once a month or so for smoke or a drink or two wouldn't kill ya. When I was heavy into bodybuilding I would be ridiculously healthy all year till my 2 week vacation when we drove down to Puerta Vallarta. I would drown myself in booze and cigars for those 2 weeks then come back and be healthy again. Retired at 72 without any issues and still lifting weights altho lighter now. And my vacations once I can travel are usually more frequent and longer.

Everyone needs to do what works for them. My grandmother had a scotch every night before she went to bed, lived to be 101 and was still golfing at 98. No cigars tho.

I draw the line at crepes

Not sure why the occasional cigar would be a problem as long as you don't inhale.

And I say this as a medical professional.

I can help with the "mechanical" issue with your heart.

I happen to be a heart mechanic Carson.

PM me the details and we'll schedule a time to have you pull into the shop...
