The magazine is titled "cigar aficionado", so smoking a cigar would probably not be considered abnormal. By the way, last I heard cigars are still legal, so what's the big deal if ray wants to smoke one occasionally? I love it when people try to shove their morality down other peoples throats...let other's live the lifestyle they want, not how you think they should live.
Moreover you just believe there is a price quoted some where during this exchange r perhaps the price is a given. I sure would like to have an original authentic?
