Linus, do you smoke in your home? If not where do you hang out for 3 hours to smoke those ceegars?

I smoke at home with the window open and an air purifier running. A good cigar smell will leave after a few hours and there are times when I don't smoke for a few weeks at home. Once I get to CA, I'll have to do it outside (the weather will be more permissible for this, however).

I actually prefer smoking outside with friends and a good drink. Makes it more interesting but hard to find in NY.

I smoke both my pipes and cigars on my front porch and back deck. I also use one of those electrical smoke eaters if those around don't like the smell. However, it is few and far between. I also buy the really cheap cigars and throw them in my chimnea when I have that burning. It really smells good. Now I have all of my neighbors doing that too.

This is why I want to get a house. I want to build a "external man cave" for those rainy days but on the nice summer days, I want to be able to sit by the fire, look at the stars and when done, toss it into there. Sounds like an awesome way to enjoy, Andrew.

Yeah I agree, I prefer outside too. If you're moving to the San Diego area it shouldn't be much of a problem finding good weather a lot of the time. It can get pretty cold up here in N. CA though.

It's gonna be somewhere in the Los Angeles area but once I'm there it'll likely mean that San Diego will be on my teaching schedule (probably late summer/fall) so we should meet up if I get a gig there.

I'm up in Northern CA, but I'd love to meet up with you sometime once you're here and settled

TD: Thanks for the cigars. I smoked one right when I got it and saved the rest for a later date.

Andrew: I just got the package! Awesome! Thank you so much for the pipe, tapper and cork (stopper?). I sniffed the tobacco. I'm probably gonna try tonight after dinner. I wonder how much this will remind me of my grandfather who always had a pipe in his mouth as long as I can remember.

[Andrew, Jr.]

Ahh Linus,

I am so glad you got the package. The tobacco is my all time favorite. I thought I would share a bag with you since you are just learning the ropes of it. Yes, the cork goes in the center of your ashtray. And the silver thingy is the taper.

Enjoy!

Love,
Andrew
