A little over 2 years ago I started this thread.  I revisited it once to see if any of my answers have changed, they did.  Some of it has changed again, some remains the same.  I will keep those items that changed a touch in this post.
Also, I am curious to see how some of the newer guys in the Asylum will answer.

 5)  What is it... that makes my "go to cigar," the one I reach for when I don't want to seriously contemplate what I am getting from a particular cigar?
 -- Consistency.  I know what I am going to get.  Amazing how true this still is.  I grab certain cigars because I know what I will get.  What is even more interesting is that lately, my "go to cigar" has become my "go to smoke."  When I really don't want to seriously contemplate what I am getting from a smoke, I am picking up my pipe more.
 
 6)  What is it... that makes your "special occasion cigar" so special?
 -- Who I am with or maybe who I got the cigar from.  Sometimes, it might be a special cigar (price tag, HTF, or some such), but even that special cigar will not be smoked until I'm with the right people.  I have a couple I want to smoke with my son as a PPP. I have some really nice smokes, but then there are a couple just average smokes which are seriously consistent, and which I have loved for a long time.  I am curious to see/hear his thoughts on them.  He had a My Uzi Weighs A Ton Baitfish last night after archery league, he really liked it.  Before he smoked it, I had thought it might be a little too strong for him.  It wasn't.
