I love being able to walk into a cigar shop, light up, and suddenly be able to strike up a conversation with such a diverse group of people.
At one local shop, I have experienced exactly what you are describing, Dave. In the last three weeks I have had some really enjoyable times just sharing a smoke with a couple of college guys... two 30 sumthin ladies... a distinguished black gentleman in his 60's... a Korean business man... a soldier... a guy who was pushing 80... and all around these remarkable little pleasures we call cigars.
Cigars forge the bonds of friendship in a most unique way. They have certainly helped me make some extraordinary friendships. You all know who you are!
