The Ultimate Cigar Lounge build thread

I just made the ultimate score today, a genuine 1920's style gentlemen's smoking club lounge chair :eek:
This is literally the "Steve McQueen" of all club chairs it's so cool :cool:. This is the chair that started it all.
TaDa!

Is that Jacob Marley from A Christmas Carol as the door knocker? Nice!

Looks like he might jump out at cha! lol
It was sold as a gargoyle (?) but it's almost 2 feet in length and weighs 14lbs.
Sounds like a bowling ball hitting a wooden floor on concrete when it's struck, I loved the Munsters growing up, think their door knocker sound.
 
I always enjoyed a good cigar from time to time. Used to go to this great cigar shop in town, the owner was a great guy, super helpful, and got to know him pretty well. He was super knowledgeable, held great cigar events, and was always smoking the best cigars!

I remember the day that he shared that he was sick with cancer. He died at 60 years old. I don’t bother with cigars anymore. It’s all fun and games until someone gets hurt, I suppose…

Doesn't make any difference, you might as well just lock yourself indoors.
Yeah, a lot of people are just predestined to get cancer whether they smoke or not. I've known of people that never smoked anything in their life to get lung cancer and people who smoked like freight trains live well into their 90's and die of old age. I believe it's more environmental and genes above all, in the end, you're either gonna get it or not regardless of what you do.

Well, I don't want to bring harsh anyone's mellow in an interesting thread but there is a huge body of science that disagrees. And it isn't just cancer that is a problem. Heart disease, high blood pressure, lung damage...the list goes on and on.

We should all max out our spending on lottery tickets because the odds are always 50/50--we either win or we don't.
 
Yeah, this thread isn't the place for anyone's "whataboutisms" so those that wanna pontificate on such things can take it elsewhere and open up their own thread, comments on suggestion, ideas and feedback are always welcomed.
