Well my faithful followers and lovers of the leaf, the Holiday Season is upon us and that means lots of food, lots of drinking and hopefully lots of fine cigars to top it all off. This is the time of year that we normal folks act a little nicer, dig a little deeper and try not […]

Just when you think spring is close, we get another snow storm. Is anybody else sick of freezing their ash off while trying to enjoy cigar? As a true Wisconsinite, it’s my duty to complain about winter and the fact that it seems like it’s never going to end. It’s also in our DNA to […]

Did you know that in the state of Wisconsin, it is illegal to grill without drinking a beer? No really. I’m sure I read it on the internet or was told so by some guy that works at General Beverage. If it isn’t a law, it damn well should be. There is nothing that goes […]

Six more weeks of winter predicted by that pudgy little quadruped from Pennsylvania known as Punxsutawney Phil. (hey we a have a Phil in our group also) He poked his fuzzy little rodent head out of his burrow (not our Phil, the other one) and cast a shadow on the ground which emphatically means six […]

I get asked this question all the time, “When did you start smoking cigars?” I usually offer up one of my typical smart-ass responses like, when I realized they weren’t going to smoke themselves. Helping select a cigar for a newbie connoisseur the other day got me thinking about my first venture into the world […]

Are you aware that people eat hummus, and then they buy more so they can eat it again? To me that’s like breaking your arm and then asking somebody to re-break your arm again. But people also think that Coors Light is a quality beer. This just goes to show you that there is no […]
