well, it's not exactly fire yet

cheers to all pulsarians on the planetZ

and a virtual cigar for those who aren't shrieked away by the pic - I stick with the real stuff

cheers, Tom

Took me a little while to work out that one isn't supposed to breathe in cigar smoke...(cof!)

Congrats Astroman!

I thought you stopped smoking long ago.

Anyway, nice having you here. Keep on geeking

Congratulations Tom! I know you've helped out loooots of folks here, but more personally I would be utterly lost without ya. Keep up the great work!

Cheers,

Johann

thanks a lot to all for your kind and encouraging words

planetZ is a great place for ideas and a source of inspiration - a very special thanks to John Cooper for keeping this up

you're right, Immanuel - I gave up smoking cigarettes 8(?) years ago and I'll never start it again - that for shure.
I admit being concerned to fall back to this habit before the first cigar after > than a year without smoke, but it turned out well.

This is a completely different story - if I'd inhale the dose of smoke on the pic above I'd probably be ready to call the ambulance

The mixture of a good cigar is a true art in it's own and a piece of craftsmenship, like a good wine. You don't consume that stuff - you enjoy it. It's something special one does on occasion, not on a regular base.

It's fun to explore new brands - and it's an affordable form of decadence

Helps the last (and only almost true) communist regime to survive

and gives work to a lot of 3rd world people, though one could argue about their income in relation to the final product's price...

cheers, Tom

thanks Andy

I actually run a Win98 office box by MSI, stuffed with 2 Pulsar Ones on a risercard.
Usually it sits under the table - topless and fed by an external PSU.
For carrying it around I re-install the (too) small internal PSU and slide the metal case back over it (12x12x3) inches

I need some Windows experience somehow for my job - the Scope system prevents me from throwing the crap where it belongs...

cheers, Tom

big congrats, MarcusPocus

in my case it took a couple of weeks longer - awaiting the contracts for a new flat, negotiations went positive yesterday

... most certainly related to fire breathing

cheers, Tom
