Stogie Guys Friday Sampler XLI

27 Apr 2007

In our ongoing effort to make StogieGuys.com as entertaining and reader-friendly as possible, each Friday we’ll post a selection of quick cigar news and stogie-related snippets. We call ‘em Friday Samplers. Enjoy.

1) The Cato Institute’s latest issue of Regulation includes an excellent article that exposes the flawed “science” behind the surgeon general’s latest report on secondhand smoke. It goes on to say that “people should feel offended by the complexity and sham paternalism of health authorities and of profitable tax-exempt charities” because “such an officially imposed tyranny has no place in countries that claim and presume to be free, enlightened, and just.” To read the article in its entirety, please click here.

2) Now that the Chicago Bulls are poised to win their first NBA playoff series since the Michael Jordan era, many people are wondering what MJ has been up to. According to the picture to the right (which made the rounds on several popular blogs on Monday), he’s been smoking cigars and grinding on chicks half his age in Cabo San Lucas. Isn’t that what you’d be doing?

3) We wanted to let you know that our friends over at Cigar Jack have a Battle of the Cigars currently in progress, a tournament-style stogie face-off where readers vote for their favorites. Be sure to check it out.

4) Deal of the Week: Our affiliate Tinderbox.com has been coming through with some great bargains, and this week is no exception. For just $24.95, you can pick up a ten-pack sampler with some real gems, including a Montecristo Platinum, an Ashton Classic, and a CAO Brazila Gol (which alone are worth the price). With other top notch cigars like Hoyo, La Gloria, Bolivar, Oliva, Romeo y Julieta, and Fuente, this is a must buy. To get yours, click here.

    Sounds like MJ is really enjoying himself these days. Thanks for the heads-up on the Tinderbox deal; I just picked it up.

    Yeah, I also just bought that Tinderbox deal. It looks pretty sweet.

    Are you guys sure that's really MJ?

    Yeah, we're almost positive that's Mike. I think the sports blog Deadspin was one of the first to publish the photo on Moday. Also, here's another Deadspin post with the photo, announcing that MJ's son will be playing basketball for my alma matter.
