. . . who has difficulties enjoying cigars?
A few months ago I submitted a short article to an online cigar magazine, CigarWeekly.com. It concerns my problems with out obsession, uh hobby - yeah that's it, hobby! The response was underwhelming. I don't believe I'm unique, there has to be others with similar problems. So, I'm linking to the article here with the hope that someone here can benefit; either yourself or someone you know.

That is awesome. I do hope it allows someone who might not be able to enjoy them the ability to partake. Who doesn't deserve the right to a nice relaxing smoke, alone or with friends. Great info, and I hope it reaches someone who will benefit.

Great job on the article and I'm sure it is useful and creative thinking for someone in your position. Way to spread the love, brother. I'm a little surprised I'm the only one to bother to leave you a rating though.

Brother I not only left a rating, I shared the link to your article.
You can't be the only BOTL out there that's facing challenges from a serious illness and finding ways to enjoy a simple pleasure that most of us take for granted.
You're an inspiration and I sincerely see you as a great example of innovation overcoming adversity. Well done, long ashes to you on your road to recovery =d>

I was particularly touched by this comment in the article, which allow me to feel just a little more normal. That is all I wanted when I went through my health issues several years ago. One day at a time brother. 🌫

To me you're the same ole Dave I met in Cincinnati a while back. Same ole a$$hole IMO.n. [sarcasm] (Well I am one too.)


Seriously Dave, I haven't looked at you any different. You are still my BOTL and I still love you bromando. I look forward to seeing you all in April and sorry o could not make you guys herf. Maybe next time. Keep enjoying cigars all my B/SOTL as this great man does (regardless of any situation) and the hobby will always be an enjoyable one.
