For a long time Luke has reminded me of Kevin Trudeau.

Eww. Not even close. Feel free to shoot me if I ever don a fedora.

Eww.

Cigars are a treat. Luke may be a "cigar smoker" by definition, but unless he's crawling out of his skin three hours after he smoked his last one, I'd say it's not a problem.

I'd argue lighting something on fire then hanging it our of your mouth while it smolders and having had to get used to it and not cough upon inhaling the smoke is pretty clearly a problem. Once an hour is just more of a problem than once a month.

Ive never had to get use to smoking nor have I coughed from it. you also see how infrequently I smoke. A lot of that is just crap you see in movies.

Hobie doesn't understand cigars. If he thinks you inhale lungs full of smoke, well, that just makes my argument for me.

I actually had a friend with that name. He's dead now but man he was fucking nuts and awesome to party with.

Why yes, I'm completely mistaken. All of my friends that started smoking in high school were all raring to run marathons when they started.

Yes yes fine, cigar smokers mostly pull it into their mouth and technically inhale means pulling into your lungs. Way to cherry pick my statement. You're still dealing with fire near your face, dealing with remnants of said burning (hopefully without being a littering jerk or setting accidental fires), and dealing with smoke that will turn your teeth, games, and other things yellow.

Anyway, moving on.

Anyone else excited that Fleetwood Mac will have the full Rumours lineup this tour?

It's not cherry picking Hobie, you're simply naive. You don't understand how to smoke a cigar and that is fine. No shame.

Drink coffee? Soda? Dyed candy? Eat processed or fast food on a regular basis?

I don't. These things also cause the yellowing of teeth.

Ever had a cavity or have your teeth whitened?

I haven't. Don't need to, won't need to.

I've had a few teeth chipped/broken due to sports related injuries, but my dentist says my teeth are beyond perfect. I like to agree with him, especially since my dental bill equals zilch.

But if I get cancer of the mouth because I smoke a cigar after making a sale, go nuts and throw a party.

Cigars are for weddings and special occasions. I fully intend to smoke a cigar when England get to the quarter finals of the World Cup. It's tradition.

Quitting cigarettes is fucking hard.

I think the best way to deal with it is to change your mindset.

Do not think "I can't have a cigarette , I can't have a cigarette"

Think "There are no such thing as cigarettes. Now I will just continue on with my life"

I think if some one is let alone, he might not eat(or crave) a piece of chocolate for 3 day, BUT if you restrict him by saying "You can NOT have a piece of chocolate for 3 days" it will start to itch real bad. This is why I think a lot of people have a hard time on a diet, because they know they can't eat sugars.

Quitting is easy. Everyone I know who smokes quits a couple times a year.

Ugh. I'm starting to think I'm going to have to learn Photoshop. I've completely fallen in love with TheCoverProject.net but for a lot of systems, there's so many variants in the covers, and I REALLY want at least the spines to be in the same style if not the whole cover. The people on their forums are helpful and awesome, but you don't want to be That Guy just asking for EVERYTHING... If you want something done right, do it yourself!

...at least the conversions of covers that already exist, that should be easy enough.
