I figured not, as everyone here is a total bad ass about any questions/help but I did want to let people know this was a little tongue and cheek and maybe get some other questions flowing.

Actually, over time as the cigar hydras it, the wrapper may naturally begin to unravel. This is why cigars come with caps and aren't pre-cut. Though you can find some lower-end cigars that come pre-punched.

I save cutting until the time comes to smoke. If for some reason you cannot smoke the cigar after you cut, you should be fine for a few weeks. Just over time it may come undone.

Not if you don't cut the entire cap off. I have several 20+ year old cigars that were cut many years ago. Anyone here will tell you that if you cut a cigar and it's too tight, put it back for another 6-12 months and try again. I've probably got a box or so that have been cut but were too tight. Since I didn't cut the cap completely off, they will be fine for how ever they long they are in the humidor.

Agreed....Greg knows things. I barely shave off the top of my cap with a Palio, and don't have issues with cigars that sit cut in this fashion over long periods of time.
