Just out of curiosity more than anything.

I'm an avid cigar smoker. We have a large stand-up cabinet humidor in my business.

I smoke maybe 2-3 times a week. Always with good fellowship and friends. For me, it represents a true 2 hour span of total relaxation and enjoyment. It clears my mind, relaxes my body, and leaves me feeling energized after.

So - any other Fastlaners have a strong penchant for cigars?
