My friends and I would be out in the woods behind the house thinking we were so cool, we didn't understand what my dad thought was so great about the taste, but all we cared about was being cool. Fast forward 30 years later, and the taste is what matters most. I enjoy, and am fascinated with everything about cigars. Couldn't imagine living without them. Great article Walt.

I grew up in York City in section 8 housing with my sister and mom. I had a cigarette probably at around 8 years old and just blossomed into the studly cigar smoker you see before you today LOL. So, to me the statement would reflect on a nice rural community setting where girls and boys would flirt and play, not the city where for a dessert she wanted you could get laid ;) Mike nice read but to me the quote really didn’t mean much.

I do remember getting sick and not liking it at all. Now 11 years later I am completely fascinated by cigars and cant get enough. Strange but true. Good read.
