Okay, so this is an article about SPIT. Hey, what can I say? This has been a question that I have received from numerous people and it is a slippery one...<ahem> Seriously, this is a thorny question because of the different ways cigar smoke affects the salivary glands in the mouth. In some people, cigar smoking increases saliva and reduces them to so many Pavlovian dogs, while in others, smoking reduces saliva production and leads to a dry mouth worthy of the Sahara Desert.
First things first...what is saliva? Saliva is a viscous, clear, watery fluid secreted from the parotid, submandibular, sublingual and smaller mucous glands of the mouth. There are literally hundreds of saliva producing glands in the mouth, so there is obviously a lot of "potential" for hawking a heavy gob of expectorate.

 Fairfax, VA -- With new waves of rules and regulations already flowing from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration – Center for Tobacco Products, we know it is only a matter of time before premium/traditional cigars come under ‘direct' attack from the heavy hand of this activist federal bureaucracy. Make no mistake – prohibition is their objective.
H.R. 1639 and S. 1461 is the only thing standing between the power of a federal agency, and your home or shop humidor.

The aroma of a well-made cigar is so magnetic to Joseph Chiusano that he’s back in the business — even though it’s one of the most heavily regulated industries in the country.
Chiusano and his brother Michael Chiusano ran Cusano Cigars of Bradenton for more than 10 years. But the brothers sold the $8 million, 20-employee business in 2009 to Basel, Switzerland-based Oettinger Davidoff Group, a cigar conglomerate with more than 3,000 employees worldwide.

 One of the things we do around here is give a lot of advice to cigar smokers. It could be anything from recommending cigars and accessories, to how to set up a humidor, to clipping and lighting, to storage tips; you name it, we've probably written about it either publicly in a blog, or privately via email. Plus, there are so many cigar tips available online, it's enough to make your head spin. Moreover, some of them even contradict each other.
How did this all come about? A couple of months ago, I was working on a tip for a customer. I turned to Hayward and said, "What if we put together a list of bad cigar tips?"
"You mean things that cigar smokers shouldn't do?" said Hayward.
"That would be good, but I mean crazy stuff, like a cigar tips parody."
Humberto, who makes up the samplers for our weekly newsletter wanted to get in on the act. So, here are some "do's" and (mostly) "don'ts" from the three of us. Though some are legit, if you dare to try some of them, we take no responsibility for what happens to your cigars, but we will take credit for making you laugh.

The headstones wear Hawaiian leis and Mardi Gras beads. They are festooned with bottles of Yuengling, flasks full of Jack, boxes of cigars.
In Arlington National Cemetery’s Section 60, where those killed in Iraq and Afghanistan lie, the graves aren’t just markers of remembrance; they are canvases decorated with stones, shiny balloons and handwritten notes. In this corner of the nation’s most sacrosanct military burial ground, all manner of ornamentation abounds — one headstone is covered in lipstick kisses — bringing a colorful poignancy to an otherwise monochromatic place of mourning.
