BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Oily cigar = oil in mouth?
nope, that is not normal. you might have been tar balled, which is when an accumulation of oils and saliva accrues at the end of the cigar, and sometimes just drops into your mouth, but that is not the kind of thing you would miss. more info? pix would be a little distasteful, but the cigar...- javajunkie
