- Cigars
Tony on CigarsMy grandfather on my mother's side loved Dutch Cigars in the old Shanghai days.Cigars appealed to me as I spent the cold winters in Canada as a kind of warmth.As a senior in boarding school, we were allowed to smoke pipe or cigar, no cigarettes as that's for the working class. cigars were then port-dipped cheapies.Cigar is a luxurious way of relaxing myself after a long day of work; ita?s a treat to myself. Of course, too much smoking is not good for your health but a few cigars a week wont break your bank or affect your health.

- Cuban Cigars and Tony
BANGKOKa While the U.S. Navy's second fleet patrols Atlantic waters to monitor Cuba a whose cigars are banned from the United States a sailors in the Pacific fleet freely purchase and puff on Cuban stogies at a U.S. government-managed facility in Hong Kong. The cigars are sold at the pier-side Fleet Arcade, a short stumble from Club Hot Lips and other bars in the Wanchai red-light district. A servicemen's commissary that also serves as the embarkation point for boats out to visiting navy ships, the Fleet Arcade's shops pay rent to the U.S. government at well below market rates. Numerous sailors on leave in Hong Kong from the USS Kitty Hawk battle group have stocked up on Cohibas and Romeo Y Julieta cigars. Some probably brought them back on board, a violation of American law. Nonetheless, the battle group's commander, Rear Admiral Steve Kunkle, said the navy had more urgent concerns than conducting a body search of more than 7,000 personnel for smuggled smokes. The admiral's effective establishment of a "don't ask, don't tell" cigar policy for the navy's Seventh Fleet certainly pleased Tony Wong, the biggest seller of Cuban cigars in the Fleet Arcade. But, Wong added, sales don't just spike for the navy. China's frequent cancellations of naval visits have forced him to rely heavily on the ever-eager buyers among delegations from the U.S. Congress.
