UR Chicago Article on Cigars Featuring Me

cover of Never Give UpA recent article on cigars was published in UR Chicago, a great lifestyle magazine in Chicago by an even greater journalist, Daniel B. Honigman.  Following the statewide smoking ban in Illinois, Daniel introduces cigars to some - reaffirming them to others - and how smoking a stogie adds to an experience, rather than just getting a quick drag on a cigarette in the cold outside of a bar.  He interviewed me for the article, and my quote is at the end of the article.  You can download a PDF of the January 10-30, 2008 edition and read the full article.

I enjoy an occasional cigar, and it usually compliments an event or get-together with friends.  There’s nothing like a cigar during a Patriots game tailgate party!

Hi Michael - Yes, whiskey, whether Scottish or Irish, is a must with a good cigar!

Thanks for stopping by - and a belated congrats on your Ambassador Domainers Choice Award!

I too used to like smoking a stogie out at night and as much as I dislike cigarette smoke I hate the ban. It will have to be all scotch now!

Hi Robert -

I am surprised “membership” clubs haven’t opened yet here in the city - a nice place to get away.

And from history, we see that it wouldn’t be a good idea to take whiskey away from us again!

Some of the upper end wine and liquor stores in the suburbs are doing the memberships...it beats smoking in the garage in the winter!
