Education is important, cigars are importanter!

I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people who annoy me

Really interesting. I think my dad has something similar - I may have to hit him up next time I visit. I wonder what wood would make the best spills? Cedar? Pine? I know I've heard that a spill will influence your cigar flavor, but I can't imagine that it'd be a lasting influence. Not more than the first few draws.
Our country has plenty of five-cent cigars, but the trouble is they charge fifteen cents for them.

I've ordered spills for CG before and I do like to light with them, but it is almost more the experience than flavor.  You may pick up a bit of cedar in the beginning, but you are right, it is not lasting.  But they give a good even, gentle light and you look cool.....:biggrin:

 This is an option that is available to most of us.

You learn more by listening then you do from talking.
