I do both. I guess when you are single you can. I love the smell 2 hours later but you need to clean more and air out the place some people are so touchy on that. Oh while on the subject, I go to this very nice coffee house smoking permitted. I lite up a CoRo and peple start to complain about the smell as if the little white crap tobacco they are smoking is so much better. Ok they pay $6-8 for a pack compared to my $14-18 CoRo. They need to stop that.

Of course it's only my worthless 2 cents but I never considered my smoking as any sort of health issue but rather one of good manners.......
If people are going to be offended for one reason or another than I'd rather be a gentleman and take the high road......
Besides it always gives me the perfect excuse to get away from dull parties or (even worse) dull vistors by wandering off somewhere all by my lonesome and lighting up!

I also smoke outside at my home or anybody elses for that matter. The only places I smoke indoors are at cigar stores and cigar lounges. If I was rich, I would have my own cigar room with vent system. For now and the forseeable future the front porch and the back deck and spa are my domaines.

invest in an Ionic Breeze from Sharper Image. Its portable, so i can take it to any room in the house. Works like a charm. I'm a lucky man. Not only does my wife not mind if I smoke in the house, she encourages it. Says she loves to see me enloying my cigar. She'll even smoke with me.
Theres only on thing that I'm sure of. Indecision, may or may not be my problem.

Stroh, My wife Bought me tickets for the Big Smoke in dallas back in 2001. AND went with me. I know she had as much fun as I did. Maybe more!!! Yeah, not only can I smoke in the house, but any where I want at work as well. I run a horse & buggy company. Kinda like ranch management. Almost nothin' better than an evening with just me, my 2000lbs. horse (Joe), My blue heeler (Sheila) and a good stogie from the humi!!

I smoke on the back deck when weather permits. When it gets cold or wet I smoke in my study off my great room. My wife is completely cool with it. I have this window fan which I use when I smoke. It's quiet and works great. I rotate the fans to exhaust and it clear the room very well.
I'm almost always on the front porch. I occasionally smoke by my computer here, espically if I'm coding, nothing like a cigar while you create. Luckily I have a window about two feet in my left direction so I simply hook up a fan in the outward direction and away I go

I prefer to smoke inside. And my wife doesn't mind. She smokes cigarettes inside so it's kind of like quid pro quo.
Before we got our house and we lived in an apartment it was a pain in the ass to go outside and smoke a churchill for an hour. Especially in crappy weather.

Since my divorce 12 years ago, I smoke where ever I please (best move I ever made).....My girlfriend now heads to the master bedroom where I did buy her a Ion Air filter machine so she's not bothered by the smoke (although she likes the aroma). It's got a 32" tv/dvd/vhs/direct tv, so she gets her solace and so do I. She's a movie fan and I love the sports, maybe I found the right girl this time ???

weather permitting,I smoke outside on the back patio. If it is cold and or rainy,I smoke in my basement,where I have an input and output fan system. It actually works quite well,and I don't have to freeze my ass off,while enjoying a great cigar.

I smoke in the living room... I smoke in the bedroom... I smoke on the toilet if the cigar is just so good that I can't put it down... I use to smoke while taking a shower after coming home from nightshift, I'd rest the cigar on the shower door in between soaping up and rinsing off...haven't done that in awhile... I smoke in the basement... I smoke in the den... I smoke in the dining room... I smoke in the kitchen... I air the place out, use Febreze, light some candles and to Hell with anyone who doesn't like it... (Thank goodness my GF likes cigars almost as much as me...)
