I rode to a B&M I don't usually go to, and for some reason, was in the mood for a cigar, so I bought a few and smoked one there. I always carry a pipe with me, so when the cigar got short, I wondered what I could do, it was a nice $11 cigar, so I thought why toss a fifth of it away. This is what I did.

I say genius. Anyone say heresy?
 
I'd heard of doing this before, so I tried it once. Wierd.
 
I've seen several older gentlemen doing this,,,,seems like a good solution
 
Had the idea originated with you, I would have labeled it genius. However, I would still have to label it semi-genius!!! If you knew nothing about such being done heretofore, you could then argue that you were at the very least deserving of the company of genius!!! :D :D

What are you trying to say, brother Ken??? :scratch: :lol:
 
Well, I had no idea this was somewhat common, done before or had special pipes made for it. I thought I was being quite creative, though I guess it could still be called original somewhat

That's right! And, since you did not have prior knowledge concerning such, I would then call you a genius!!! ;)

There was many of times in the 80's when cigars was the thing and pipe tobacco was out that I'd take my favorite cigar, a Don Diego corona, and cut it in about 3/4 inch plugs and stuff it in a pipe for a smoke. Truth is I liked it and I'd do it again today if the dang things weren't so expesnive. I can buy a full tin for what one good cigar cost today.
 
That is what I envisioned the first time I tried Frog Morton....at least that's what it tasted like. :cry:

Frog Morton tasted like grasshopper? :scratch:
 
It's a very thrifty practice, so I like it! It would have done our great depression forefathers proud to see such a complete use of the beast.

I shred up some of my "lesser quality" cigars and blend them into my pipe tobacco. I have a jar of leftover GLP Robusto / McClelland Dominican Glory Maduro blended together with my cigar shreddings. Tasty stuff indeed. :D
