Can Long Distance Relationships Work?

Sunday, August 7th, 2011

Can long distance relationships work? Yes, of course they can. Relationships, like most things in life, require a little work to make them succeed. Simply because there is some distance between those within the relationship does not preclude a failure in said relationship.

Relationships that have an element of distance built within them, although not unique to the last decade or so, certainly see an increase comparatively recently simply by the onset of internet dating. Perhaps distance does not remain during such relationships but, certainly at the outset, geographical distance is certainly a hurdle to be overcome.

One main rule to be maintained when involving oneself in a distance based relationship is that communications between those within the relationship must be maintained at a high level. Fortunately, these days there are many mediums that can be employed in keeping in touch on a regular basis.

For many, e-mail forms the basis of communication with a partner when a relationship either starts as or becomes one where there is geographical space between two or more people. Not only text but photographs and movies can be sent using this medium, bridging that gap of miles.

Mobile or cellular phones are now so common that it is very easy to chat to a partner whenever you want or need to. And, the spoken word brings a closeness that typed ones can never do. However, one can also text, send messages and pictures using the mobile phone as well. Provider contracts these days are easily affordable and even international calls fit within most budgets.

Another way of introducing closeness with a partner while you are separated from them is for each to have something personal that belongs to the other. It is best that this item is small and easily portable so that each can carry this item about with them, and be able to hold and touch this item when needed. Perhaps a favourite cigar lighter or something similar? This really does work.

Continued communications also means that as each person’s life changes, the other person in the relationship is up to date on such changes, which means surprises are reduced when the distance is finally closed, either temporarily or permanently. It also helps with any trust issues that may transpire.

It is worth remembering that the distance between two people may not always be one of choice, say a partner has been sent away while in the armed forces or similar. The distance alone does not automatically mean that the relationship will then fail. As long as each person within the relationship works towards the maintenance of the relationship, then the chances are good that the relationship will continue and grow.

Will this work for Clove cigarettes / cigars?

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011

Question by goody: Will this work for Clove cigarettes / cigars?
Now that the Clove cigarettes are banned, US stores are now selling the DJarum (clove) cigars that are similar but not quite the same to the cigarettes. My question is can you buy the “cigars” from the stores, then somehow unwrap the cigars and re-wrap them with cigarette papers?? Frmo what I’ve read, it seems the tobacco in the the cigars is the same, just the wrapping is different to make it a “cigar”. If I unwrap the cigar, it seems like I could re-wrap with a cigarette paper.

Best answer:

Answer by Big J v 3
I believe technically a cigar is tobacco wrapped in a tobacco leaf (or brown paper with tobacco in it).So technically I think your idea is sound, but why not just smoke the cloves they way they are now?

What do you think? Answer below!

Do Electronic Cigarettes Really Work – A Review

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Since the late 1990s, with the advent of so-called electronic cigarette, manufactures have striven to create the best tasting, similar feeling smokeless cigarette. At the forefront, e-cigarettes is one of the premier US brands of electronic cigarette, tailoring a variety of e-cigarette lines to millions of customers.


Electronic cigarettes performs much the same way as does a traditional tobacco cigarette. Not only does the device resemble the look and feel of a cigarette or cigar, it delivers virtually the same pleasure without passing tar and other harmful carcinogens to both the smoker and the environment. The e-cigarette can be smoked just about anywhere their traditional counterparts have been banned, such as restaurants, beaches, the workplace and airplanes.


The non-flammable electronic cigarette is driven by safe, microelectronic technology, featuring a small rechargeable battery fitted in a cigarette-like device, which utilizes unique replaceable cartridges which contain water, propylene glycol (to simulate smoke), nicotine, a scene that emulates tobacco and other safe non-toxic flavorings.


The most encouraging aspect of electronic cigarettes is how the act of inhaling produces the same taste, feel and craving satisfaction traditional smokers are looking for, by triggering a vaporized mist that releases a simulated smoke. Nicotine reaches the lungs and provides its effects in less than ten seconds.


Electronic cigarettes are incredibly easy to use. It’s solid construction won’t crush or break like a tobacco cigarette. It can be stored in a purse, jacket pocket, glove box or any convenient location.


When you want to use the e-cig, all you need to do is unscrew the indicator light tip at the end of the device, insert a charged battery and screw the tip back on. Then, at the opposite end, screw on your choice of smoke cartridges. Now, you’re ready to go.


…It’s as easy as lighting up. Within a couple drags, you feel as if you’re smoking a regular cigarette. One cartridge will last the equivalent of about two packs (40 cigarettes) of traditional tobacco cigarettes.


Refill cartridges come in a variety of flavors ranging from typical tobacco brands, to menthol as well as fruit flavors. Cartridges also come in a variety of nicotine levels, aiding those who wish to quit smoking to slowly wean themselves off nicotine, in a similar but far more satisfying way than the traditional nicotine patches.


Other upsides of the electronic cigarette are simply financial. An average pack a day smoker will begin to see savings by the 40th day of using the product. Over the course of a year, the savings would amount to over $1000. Never mind the money saved in carpet, drapery and dry cleaning that comes from stale smoke that reeks in the homes and clothes of typical smokers.


If there was one reason, though, that should motivate smokers of traditional tobacco cigars and cigarettes to try the electronic cigarette, its for their health. More and more, cigarette companies use additives in their cigarettes that have been proven to be harmful to the smoking public.


For those most stalwart skeptics, a recent poll discovered that those who have switched to the electronic cigarette, report a 90-95% percent satisfaction rate.

Don Diego Cigars

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Cigars

Decided to try some smaller smokes for the shop at work and found these at a decent price. Overall a nice mellow smoke with a woody taste. Pleasant flavor and smoke until the last 1/3 where it gets bitter. Overall it reminds me of the “White Owls” I smoked when I was younger. – Brad

As a new cigar smoker, have tried a wide variety of mostly medium to mild cigars and these are my curent favorites for a shorter smoke. – Billy

Coronas add your review

Wonderfully smooth, great aroma. Even, slow burn. One of my favorites. – Willy

My favorite. Smooth taste, not too strong or too mild. I suggest over any other cigar. – B. Huynen

Very smooth cigar. Great aroma and a good aftertaste. I would recomend this to all cigar smokers. – John

I never had such a classy expierience in my life. A true delight for the most educated of cigar smokers. I never wanted it to end as I stunk from that smell of success all night! A nice little shot of scotch and one of these bad boys tells everyone in the room “Yea This Is My Lifestyle.” – Roger

An excellent cigar for one of those relaxing nights on the balcony. It has the perfect blend of smoothness, and the aroma is “delicious”. An A++ cigar! – Matt

Rated 87. Solidly constructed with a yellowish, veiny wrapper. The draw has wheaty, woody notes that are a touch dry. A medium bodied cigar. – Cigar Aficionado, August 2007

Whether its a wedding, fourth of July, Thanksgiving,or just a breezy saturday night, you simply cannot go wrong with this cigar. Not too strong, yet still has a distinctive taste. A++ – Matt- Marlyland

The Don Diego is the perfect cigar for those enthusiasts who don’t want a lot of body or an overbearing flavor. By all measures it is exactly what one would expect from a smooth Dominican cigar and it is fairly strait forward on the palate. The brand has a lot of history and is considered a classic. Taste the lighter side of the Dominican Republic with a Don Diego.
