We’ve reported on it before, and we will report on it again: put your cigar out properly, or risk the lives of those you love. Another house was burned in Brunswick two days ago because of smoking negligence. It appears a cigar smoker decided to throw away his still-burning cigar in his second floor bedroom, where it caught fire and nearly burned the entire house down. And now a family of five has no place to live.

The story on TroyRecord.com reports:

“The fire started in a waste basket in a second floor bedroom around 11 p.m. Sunday, said Chief Steve Willson with Brunswick Fire Company No. 1. Since there was a skylight in the room, flames were coming through the roof when police and fire crews arrived at the fully-involved scene.

The family was home at the time but got out safely, he said.”

Please, put your cigar outside, and make sure it is disposed of properly, or you might lose your home or even lose a loved one.

One of the most popular cigar brands in the country, Rocky Patel has set the standard for taste and quality for over 15 years. This commitment to excellence shown by the company’s namesake owner and guiding mind inspires a devoted following among cigar connoisseurs. Nick Gordon, True Tobacco‘s general manager, said Patel fans would find a lot to like in the sale.

“Anyone who loves Patels should not miss this sale,” he said. “We are discounting everything from single sticks to 20-count boxes. This is a great opportunity to fill up a humidor with genuine Patels.”

Gordon said what makes Rocky Patel cigars unique in the industry is his level of hands-on involvement with his company from creating custom tobacco blends to traveling and personally meeting customers and retailers the world over.

“Many people do not realize just how much work Mr. Patel puts into these cigars,” Gordon said. “These blends can take over a year to craft. He’s on the road more than 300 days a year looking for new tobacco varieties and winning over new customers. Yet, he still manages to keep his cigars affordable. It makes the values True Tobacco is offering even more incredible.”

True Tobacco offers not only Patel’s latest works like the Vintage 2003 and Xen by Nish Patel, but it also showcases classic cigars like the Decade and the mysterious Rocky Patel Fifty. Whether a devotee prefers junior, toro or double corona cigars, every size in the Patel roster is present. Even the legendarily robust Edge Missile Torpedo Maduro in its diamond-shaped box is represented—and discounted.

The sale has something to suit every budget. Single sticks start at just $5.99. Many 20-cigar boxes are discounted up to 25 percent for savings that may not be seen again this year. Aficionados can save over 35 percent on the Best of 5 Sampler Pack and the Best of Sampler Kit.

With each Rocky Patel purchased, customers will earn True Tobacco loyalty points they can redeem for free products. Stocking up on extra stogies and ordering over $200 of merchandise snags free shipping, too.

Ohio Bible Study Blends the Leaf and the Word

Pastor uses love of cigars to get the word of God out

If you thought the only thing to do in a cigar lounge is smoke, watch football, and sip scotch, you’d be wrong. Cleveland.com reported yesterday on a Bible study group that is meeting at Cigar, Cigars and puffing their way through the gospels of St. Matthew and St. John.

A few selections from the article:

“Van Scyoc, pastor of St. Thomas Lutheran Church in Rocky River, has been conducting Bible studies at Cigar Cigars for about three years. So far, the group has puffed through John and are now smoking into Matthew.

He says he told his congregation about the idea and no one objected, so he went ahead, naming it Smokin’ Bible Study. “There are those who might say, ‘What kind of a Christian would smoke a cigar?’ ” says Van Scyoc.

Gilbert, butting in, says, “Let that be our only sin.”

The lounge bears the same name as another we recently reported on as having launched a charity drive to bring in clothing for the homeless.

Smokers in Ohio should think twice before they buy their next sampler or box of cigars online and consider supporting a small business that gives back to the community and allows small groups to meet.
