Only If I Could

Sometimes I sit alone at the cigar lounge. It is a chance to unwind. It gives me a moment to clear my head. Alone, I can listen in to everyone’s conversation; not a real difficult task at my lounge. As I dial into a discussion, I become less and less interested in anyone’s latest conquest, the size of a new house or the rate of return on a recent investment. The time alone allows me to think. What would I do? How would I handle it? This is daydreaming on the highest of scales. Allow me to share some of my thoughts with you.

I hope Liga Privada can increase its advertising commitment to Cigar Aficionado so that it can reap the rewards of being nominated Cigar of the Year.

Can we stop running nonsense sales on premium cigars? By the way, have you taken advantage of the Opus XA single cigar sale on Cigar-Now.com? Purchase yours in a coffin for $94.95; down from $99.95. Stop it now. Please stop it.

Flavors like chocolate, cherry, mint and mocha are foods and can be considered as flavor enhancers to food only. This should limit the confusion, discussion and legal haggling as to why these flavors are used in tobacco.

Would it not be wonderful if cigar manufacturers all agree to set prices based on the consumer’s knowledge of cigars? A Cigar I.Q test of sorts. Essentially this should keep everyone happy: the newbie can brag to their newbie friends of his recent fifty dollar acquisition of a Padron 45th Year, while the rest of us can enjoy more great cigars at a reasonable price.

Anti smoking advocates are stupid and self serving. You can seem them coming from miles away. They place restrictions, without understanding the consequences. They pass laws, without one iota of a thought given to enforcement. At times they take on the persona of grade school teachers, enforcing rules on those too young to think for themselves because of their lack of life experiences. They are smart enough to understand that resistance on this topic will be less than Governor Brewer’s fight in Arizona, for example. They are frontrunners who lead a charge against causes that are fashionable. If a pitcher tips his pitch to the batter, the batter hits a home run. Perhaps we can take the same approach to further our cause.

Fun time is over. Back to work.
