When my brother and I were younger, 8 or 9, we used to work for our neighbor delivering flyers. He smoked cigars. Dutchmaster or el producto or something. Loved the smell. Always loved challenging him to see how long the ash would get... the aroma though, stuck with me.

Of course, as I went through HS and college years I fell victim to the brainwashing of the anti smoking crowd... i was a violent anti smoker until maybe 15 years ago, when I started reading various articles... truth is they can't prove second hand smoke - their one weapon- is harmful.

As Anti smoking as I was, I'd still enjoy puffing a cigar now and then, and would go golfing (great when you can go business golfing!) and smoke a cigar with the guys.

It was probably ~2000 when I started puffing along more frequently, and then i found the forum on cigarbid, and then HERE! The rest, well, it's history (all of it is, actually, because none of this happened in the future...)
