Wanda and the Cigar Bomb 02_19_10.jpg

Wanda almost never nags but she doesn't much like me spending money on cigars. When this package showed up without warning it had her wondering.

It was a cigar bomb, which is what we call an unexpected gift of cigars from a cigar forum buddy. They were a very pleasant surprise to me!

Well, if Wanda is your significant other, there is nothing better than a nice beautiful woman like her sitting next to you while you light up a nice Cuban Cohiba or Monte Cristo #2. - And beautiful eyes

PS Bill, at least she put down the gun and picked up a rolling pin instead!!!

I'm afraid I'm with Wanda on this one. In my opinion, Bill Clinton found the only good use for a cigar :-)

I recently fell off the no-smoking wagon,and I've been hearing about it.Bill,I feel your pain.

Sea,

I Sooooooooooooo agree with your comment about how bad cigar smoke STINKS to us non-smokers. Poor Bill isn't allowed to smoke those "dog turds" in the house and the clothes he wears while smoking one are put directly into the wash and the coat and hat he wears while smoking have to be left out in the garage. For the most part, I am a tolerant wife, but those damned cigars really piss me off.

Look out Bill, Wanda's got the matching blue rolling pin in hand!

Please! Don't spank me to hard! I promise to be a good boy.

While I am a big fan of Wanda, I need to support Bill on this one. As we get older we seem to be allowed fewer and fewer vices and an occasional good cigar is a reasonable vice.

Bill, I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, known as Cigar City. We have several good places that roll locally. I would be happy to send you a cigar bomb for the years of sharing Wanda with us! Let me know where to send them.

That's funny, and good for Wanda! Cigar smokers (at least in my parts) generally have no idea how bad it smells to non-smokers. I always wondered what the pleasure is from having a burning sewage pipe 4 inches from the tip of your nose.

seriously, a cigar bomb!, who cares, any excuse for a Wanda fix, :-) perfect!

Love it! She looks like she is armed and dangerous. Nice job on the color coordinating, the eyes, the top, the necklace, and the weapon.
