Ok I have to say it.

Would it kill you to use a capital now and again. If your keyboard shift key is f'd up let me know I will send you a new one.

Wonder not, my furry friend. This non-sequitur has tipped his hand.

He obviously has a shift key as he used a question mark.

He's just channeling the ghost of ee cummings.

On an internet forum, we can't see you, can't hear you, so the way one types is a projection of the person. In addition to being hard to read, typing without capitals, with all caps and lack of some semblance of punctuation really lowers your IQ in the eyes of the viewers. Especially when first and second graders can manage with no problem. Nobody expects perfect grammar, composition and/or typing techniques - so don't look at it as a pet peeve deal - more as a common courtesy.

Well stated, Ron. I wholeheartedly agree.

As a cigar enthusiast, and also an on-again off-again cigarette smoker, I have to say that the two are worlds apart for me. As stated earlier a cigar is about relaxing and enjoyment whereas as a cigarette is all about the nicotine fix for me.

There was a time, not too long ago mind you, that I smoked a pretty regular amount of either Cohiba cigarettes or Camels in addition to my weekly lineup of good cigars. I find as I get busier and busier I reach for a cigarette less often.

Currently I am not smoking cigarettes and I look as it as a good thing.

In part I agree, but guess I'm F'ed then. I can't spell, can't do more than 2 finger type so y'all are just gonna be stuck with what I have to offer. As many posts as some do or that I try to do, I would never equate an individuals IQ with their typing/spelling skills or their ability to function at a social function. Profiling or stereotyping, usually not gonna work out well for ya.

When I'm smoking a cigar, the smell of a cigarette is ten times worse than when I'm not. If I have a cigar or am around cigar smoke the smell of a cigarette is like burning metal. If there are no cigars around, they (cigarettes) don't bother me. Like Dan said - cigarettes are for a fix; cigars, for many, are a hobby or indulgence.

Thank you for capitalizing in post #8. I'm with Shawn on this one.

This is my opinion as well. If I'm not smoking a cigar I don't mind cigarette smoke at all. Sometimes I even like the aroma. When I'm smoking a cigar the smell seems putrid, and actually can take away from the experience slightly.
