"smoking a cigar is a luxurious form of rebellion against the shackles of the mundane


I would consider having that tattooed somewere, thats a great line.

Thanks Mr. Nub-- I suppose it does sort of capture something about the whole endeavor. If you get the tat, post a pick!

In fact, this makes me wonder if there are cigar tattoos out there. I have a few, but none related to the BOTL.

The clarity of the lines around the old guy's face is unreal, it's as though he is (was) actually really aged

Cigars - Thinking and The First Toke

For me it helps me switch off. Lighting up a nice cigar is a physical act that re-enforces my brain to switch off if I'm smoking alone or puts me in a more social frame of mind if with like minded friends. I've noticed this myself and my other half comments on how tranquil (none responsive lol) I am during and immediately after I smoke a cigar. I have a busy stressful job (for those that know me, yes i lie about how busy my job is) and thanks to the offical secrets act I can't discuss with anyone outside of work things that might be worrying me, stressing me out etc and you don't really discuss your feelings at work lol. I work hard for my sticks and it is one of my only vices. I used to enjoy to drink much more but I would find it would take a lot of drink and wouldn't chill me out, more just nub the brain and body for a while.

I'm my own worst enemy when it comes to putting myself first so telling the other half (giving her fair warning) that I'm going to light up a cigar let's her know I'm having some me time for the next hour or two and we all need quality me time.

Typed as I'm half way through an epicure no2, listening to an Iain banks audio book in the sun by the pool. I think I might have the hang of this chilling out game. Now to ponder the meaning of life.

I have already planned a cigar tattoo, just trying to get my tattoo artist to fit me in with enough time for healing before my holiday. I'm having the Nub tribal tobacco leaf tattooed on my forearm, I may also have souls line incorporated in it

I would be most honored. Do you have have picture of what the leaf would look like?

Not sure why (though it may have something to do with having just read a leaflet for the Air Tattoo at Fairford), but I had a wonderful vision of a show with all the best cigars of the world on display and being tasted/tested.

Now there's an idea...
