Am I evil....??

So it has been a rough week. Work has been all nuts. No one's life depends on what I do for a living, but you wouldn't know that from all the stuff that has been happening. Anyway....that's not the point of the story. Suffice it to say.....I was in need of some relaxation!

So Saturday evening rolls around. I devide to go to the local pub (that IS cigar friendly...I am soooo lucky). I get a beer and light up a Punch Rare Corojo.

Beers flow on by and I am just getting into relaxing. When "Bob" (name changed to protect....) walks in. Now Bob is a friend of a friend. He is a real playahh if ya know what I mean. I guess he's an OK guy, but if I had a daughter, I would not let him ANYWHERE near my neighborhood. (And I am being way way nice here....)

He comes up to me says "Hello" and snakes my torch lighter. Before I could say ANYTHING (honestly), he goes to light his cigarette. When **WHOOSHH**, his camel light goes off like a fireball. (Seems that dual jet lighter might have been a little too much for it. :lol:
He screams and tosses the cig. Luckily, he is not hurt and the cig (or what is left of it) goes out safely.

I couldn't help it. I burst out laughing. I have tears running down my face. I am sure that if I hadn't just returned all the beers that I had rented, I would have probably seriously embarrased myself, that's how hard I was laughing.

Once the bartender was done giving me oxygen, I tried to explain to Bob that you gotta be careful with torches. He just calls me evil and leaves.

So am I evil? Or did fate just pay him back?

I've been looking for one of those lighters ever since you first mentioned it, iminaquagmire. I'm thinking that this socially backwards state has probably banned them from sale. But I will not get on that soapbox....at least not yet.

Yeah, I am pretty convinced he got a little cosmic payback, too. I feel a little bad for laughing so hard. But if you coulda seen it.... and his face! Priceless!

I wish it would have been a Va. Slim though. Whenever someone lights one of those up, my sinuses know about it. Would have been a fitting revenge to those cigs. (Someday, I'll figure out what is in those that doesn't seem to be in other cigs.)
