One might like to smoke or drink what one is familiar with and something that is considered to be of outstanding quality (e.g., Cuban cigars in the 20th century, French cognac as a drink, etc.) might taste unpleasant simply because one is unused to it. The phrase "an acquired taste" is quite telling because it referred to dedicated acquisition of preference for something that was initially unpleasant. In the U.S. we do not legally have access to Cuban cigars currently but Canadians do. Which is better: the cigars grown and warped in Cuban or the ex-pats from Cuban (i.e., Cuban who fled after Castro and developed tobacco fields elsewhere)? A person with extensive experience with cigars (an "aficionado") might be able to tell but one's preferences could still over rule perceived quality (e.g., Hennessy is a passable cognac but Remy Martin might be considered more desirable; both are mass market products and one might not compare them to small batch cognacs). I leave to Canadian Tipsters (or US Tipsters who smoke cigars while in Canada ;-) to pass judgment. Btw, were his therapy sessions smokeless? or puffless? If he smoked while clients were=associating? I'd bet that he puffed away. Albert Ellis, who produced a large number of books, would write on index cards during therapy sessions, splitting his attention between what the "client" was saying and he was writing for his next publication. -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu - Original Message - From: "Mike Palij" To: "Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS)" Cc: "Michael Palij" Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2014 6:16 PM Subject: re: [tips] Freud and cigars On Sat, 22 Feb 2014 17:07:25 -0800, michael sylvester wrote: Does anyone know what type of cigars Freud smoked?

RE: [tips] Condolances
Hey, y'all TIPSTERs from Canada and the Northern states need to understan'
somethin.'
Those of us way down here in the south of the U.S. of A., especially in Georgia
(which is technically pronounced "Jo-Ga"), have a strict operational definition
for "sport" (apologies to Chris Green, whose writings on operational
definitions I very much admire; but in this case, we make a venerable
exception). Sport, as all of us down here know, is a game where you can get
banged up real bad.
Using that eminently reasonable definition, real sports include things like
American ("genuine") football, rugby, ice-hockey, boxin', wrasslin',
ski-jumpin," bobsleddin," skeleton (whatever the heck that is), pole-vaultin',
and so on. By that definition, NASCAR is most certainly a sport. In contrast,
wimpy games like "swimmin', ping pong (or as you intellectuals call it, "table
tennis"), curlin', and most of all, ice dancin', definitely ain't no sports.
Now, if they changed the rules of curlin' to allow the players to tackle each
other or to throw that big stone thing at each other, that would make it a
sport.
Don't get me wrong - I like y'all northern TIPSTERS plenty. But you gonna have
to spend some time with us down here in the South and get your definition of
sports right.

Re: [tips] Condolances
I admire curling tremendously and wish I could watch more. While I was generally boycotting watching these Olympics, I was DVRing the curling and watching it. I attended curling events in 2002 in Salt Lake City, where I lived at the time. It is very much a sport, more cerebral, and time to consider options compared to other winter sports which are more 'twitch' oriented. One of the things I've found interesting in the most recent Olympics was how buff the athletes on the top male teams had become. They appear younger and stronger, no longer are the top players necessarily in their 40s or 50s. These buff boys in their 20s and early 30s can brush the ice with more intensity which can lengthen the slide of a stone substantially more than their older and less fit competitors. It is the future.
