Are cigars like toast?

[Smokin'Sims]

Due to the rules laid out by the master of the house (aka wife) I smoke outside. Typically I do this in the dark so the small birds we call mosquitoes don't carry me away while I read the boards when I should be reading paper. Smoking in the dark has the advantage of making really interesting smoke with a back-light from the house, but also has the disadvantage of not being able to see exactly what I'm doing. Tonight I knocked my cigar off the ashtray and onto the ground. It of course landed lit foot down and split a little, not bad enough to keep me from relighting and smoking it. So the question is has this happened to you, and if like toast always lands jelly side down, do cigars always land on their feet?

I've found my cigars are like me. Always going head first into something.

Mate.
Your Toast lands jelly side down because you spread it on the wrong side :sign:

You guys know how cats always land on their feet and buttered toast always lands with the butter side down? A good experiment to do is to take a cat and a piece of buttered toast up to the top of a couple story building. How it works is that you throw the cat off the building and then you eat the toast. I'm pretty sure that's how it goes. Not sure what it proves, but I usually bring extra toast because one piece is never enough...

agreed I do this experiment as often as possible

That has not happened to me, but something else has happened that I find odd. On several occasions, I have been taking a shower and my bar of soap has fallen out of my hand, hit the tub, and landed upright. Weird!

(NO! no one has been around for me to worry about having to pick up the bar.)
