I don't smoke and never have, but I do consume a cigar now and then if I have to.

At one point in my life I had to attend some pretty swanky affairs in case someone needed a technical question answered. It was considered an insult to the host if you refused what they offered.

So I quickly informed them I only smoked Cuban cigars and that normally shut them down. Then they started getting their hands on some, so I would smoke them if they had them. I must admit the ones I smoked were not all that bad, but it was not something I chose to spend any money on.

Which I guess makes me a Moocher, but then I have been called worse.

I never got hooked so I never had any trouble quitting.
