let it die vs. HELL NO, YOU KNOW HOW MUCH IT WAS?

[duckmanco]

If I'm smoking by myself, completely alone, then I'll give it to the halfway point or just beyond to see what it does. If it doesn't turn for the better, then I don't care anymore, and chances are, if it does turn for the better, it probably won't matter unless its mind blowing because I am not waiting that long for a cigar to come alive. An 1/8th to a 1/2 inch I can deal, but anything more than that seems counter productive.

Now, if people are around, and drinks are flowing, I'll finish it just because its in my hand.
