Don't know about you, but I have stumbled across on conundrum.

When do bombs smoke?

What I mean is this. I have received cigars in trade, PIF, or MAWs (and never does anybody abide by the agreed upon trade, but they develop into bombs - always tag alongs), and also as out-&-out bombs.

Other than the 5er trades, which you smoke as the expected flavors trigger you, when do you smoke bombs?

I have always thought that they should be smoked at a special occasion, meaning some kind of social event with other BOTLs. However, in the north woods of WI, those happen rarely. I am not talking about the normal times I burn a stick - fishing, bowling, or at normal smoking times. But, when you get together with another BOTL and compare notes while smoking - sharing the enjoyment with another.

And then, giving some sort of a review or response to the person who sent them, that you really enjoyed them. Now, I have had a few for which I didn't, but that is usually because I have forgotten who they are from.

So it comes about that I have a bunch of sticks that have been gifted to me, and I sit on them, waiting to smoke them.

Am I goofy in setting my requirements as I have? Do you have requirements for the smoking of cigars gifted to you?
