You gentlemen are terrible, but not in a bad way! I have not smoked more than a single cigar in close to six years or so and as of late I've had the urge to break out the pipes and tobacco and have a smoke (I never got rid of anything and the tobacco still seems good in the humidor, albeit dry and I can fix that). I've had trouble relaxing lately and I think I might be missing the briar, which I used to use to relax as much as anything. As a result, once I get some pipe cleaners and lighter fluid, I will have a smoke of some nice vanilla/rum cavendish I bought at a local tobacconist several years ago. At least I won't have to get any equipment this time.....
What's the lighter fluid for? I understand that cigars should never be lit with a lighter, but a match. I also understand the same goes for pipes, unless you are smoking weird smelling green stuff.
I wouldn't be the first one to start/re-start smoking a pipe because of something I read here or on another forum.
