    Too true, but also remember that - "The crux of the biscuit is the apostrophe" (some here may recognize that)

    Back to the topic at hand...My ashes usually just go on the ground to be blown around by the wind and my butts go either in the coals in my grill, or in the campfire, depending on where I'm smoking.

    A little Frank Zappa! Loved that album..
    Mine go in the deck ashtry until the next day. I dump those into the trash can and repeat...
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    Buts usually go in the wood burner. I've also given them a proper burial by kicking a small divot in the ground with my heel, dropping one in and covering it with dirt. Usually it's pretty easy to find a small area devoid of grass for the purpose.

    The apostrophes for plurals is a pet peeve of mine. Not sure why it annoys me, but it does. A lot of people do it, but I've never figured out why.

    I let mine sit in the ash tray until cool (or perhaps a bit longer) and dump them in the green waste bin. I can only assume that the local waste management company is composting them somewhere.

    I built a little firepit in our backyard, so I toss the butts in there. Random tree branches also get pitched in there. At some point, they are consumed by flame or broken down by the elements - out of sight, out of mind. Makes for good coals for a wienie roast, too!

    I just dump the ash and any buts in the outdoor trash bin. It usually has a mix of garbage, charcoal and ash from the grill, and some dog rockets from the daily walking of our dogs. Cigar smell is never an issue.

    At home I usually smoke on the back deck. Ashtray gets dumped over the railing into the lawn where the butts get mulched up next time I mow. Either that, or I will toss them into my compost bin where they decompose and become rich organic matter for the flower beds.

    Butts and ashes go in the ashtray on the porch. If they get annoying, they then go in a covered trash can on the porch.

    Last Summer my little brother and I were having cigars on the porch while he was going over my black powder weapons. I have a little 20 ga side-by-side black powder shotgun he liked a lot. When we finished our smokes I loaded it with powder and wads, but no shot. I dropped a butt down each barrel, drew back the rabbit ear hammers, and let both barrels go at once. It blew the butts to smithereens!

    My wife came out and started lecturing us about playing with firearms while drinking, and said no more shotguns today. I said something about there being more butts in the ashtray still, but she shot me down by saying if she heard one more shot she would call my little brothers wife (who we are all terrified of). I cleaned, and put away the shotgun right away.
