(my apologies if this is a repost)
Quote:
In the early nineteen twenties an issue of the Italian almanac, Il Tabacco, contained an interesting column under the heading Sigaromanzia - twelve positions of the hand holding the cigar with captions showing the psychological characteristics of the smoker.
The drawings and characteristics are reproduced in a number of places, e.g., http://www.garohabano.com/resources/psychology.asp

I was reminded of these by a LasVegASHtv.com segment from this year's ICPCR on a company that has made a poster with new pics: http://www.sharpeyeframing.com/sigar...slideshow.html

Supposedly I'm "temperamental, irritable, but a man of his word." Seems apt. What about yours?

All I can say is that I try to hold it firmly. Lost count of the amount of times it "Fell," out of my grasp. A Quick way to ruin a good smoke.

Hah. The sand dropping is awfully familiar to us... the girlfriend dropped her (flavored) cigar last night, while we were drunkenly hiking along the beach (Lido Beach on Long Beach).
