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.
Diff Between Herf & Meetup?

That is good to know, I made a complete mess out of my Meetup and called it a Herf and out it in the Zcigar section - a complete mess up.

Hell all our herfs are short notice. I don't think timing has much to do with it any more than the number of people make it a herf. You know a herf is only a herf if there are at least 5 people there, etc... I thought herf was a polyseme. I thought it was a meetup were you smoked. So, go to your meetup and herf or go to your herf and meetup.
Hmmm... I had no idea there was a difference in the two. I personally use herf for anytime I get together with at least one other person. It's not a herf unless one other person is there.
Maybe I need to write a song about smoking alone???
"I herf alone. YEAH... with nobody e-else... you know when I herf alone, I prefer to be by me se-elf..."

This is the way we handle it.... and I'd smoke to your song!
Herf Defined:
As a Noun; An event nickname developed for cigar smokers in the late ninety's on a cigar smokers News Group. When people get together Smoking Cigars.
As a Verb; Smoking (and enjoying) a fine cigar. . . to smoke cigars with others.
Steve Saka* (and friends) operate an excellent cigar-information web site called Cigar Nexus (dot com) which has the actual history (and event) that created the term HERF. Here's the excerpt:
The un-official word of ASC is HERF. Herf is a unique part of speech. It can be correctly used as a noun, a verb, an adjective, an adverb, an infinitive, a prefix, a suffix and an explicative. The arcane word "herf" first entered the ASC lexicon on November 21, 1996, and was quickly elevated to frenetic and common use by ASCers. The Prince of Skeeves (aloysius@gte.net) exposed ASC to the word herf in a casual posting to the group... however it was ASCers, as a budding collective, who took the word and made it divine. Herf is now virulently spreading to worldwide common use as hip cigar parlance.
*Steve Saka has a long running history in the cigar business. Currently he is the President of Drew Estate Cigar Co. and writes an article for Cigar-Magazine (each issue).
ASC:
Alt.Smokers.Cigars. . .
ASC was formed on 3/10/94. The "newgroup command message" which "created" ASC as a newsgroup, was sent by David Barr (barr@pop.psu.edu). Dave issued the newgroup command on behalf of Rex Wockner (rwockner@netcom.com), who came up with the notion of a cigar-oriented newsgroup, and most selected its name (i.e., alt.smokers.cigars). Dave was a USENET-savvy associate of Rex Wockner, who helped to technically facilitate the group's creation. [also copied from Cigar Nexus dot com]
