Think I smell a great week ahead as the semester winds down with the last day of finals and graduation scheduled this evening. Yeah! The library however, is still held hostage by a few desperate students drowning in anxiety juice trying to craft that last research paper, or refraining from going postal on a team member while working on that final course project. Summer will simmer like a crock pot providing time for my colleagues and I to work on projects for the upcoming fall semester, still a million miles away.
I smoked quite a few cigars this weekend which got me to thinking about some of my favorite cigar blogs and sites. One such site, Cigars4Women , is an excellent site providing an e-home for women who love cigars and "the men who support them." There is also an online magazine sponsored by this site called "Lit Lifestyle for Women." The following verbiage below details an article from The Cigar Advisor website posted April 11, 2011:
"Lit Magazine will undoubtedly become a go-to source for women who are tired of only having the male perspective and the good old fashioned boys club publications that are available when they want the latest news, products, reviews and culture centered on fine cigars. Lit is about and for women who enjoy a good cigar and can be fierce and confident in a man’s world. Lit Magazine will be based out of Las Vegas, Nevada.
While the latest in cigar news will be a major part of the publication, Lit Magazine will be filled from beginning to end with engaging sections that appeal to almost any market. Specific sections of Lit Magazine will include the Aficionada’s Corner, which focuses on cigar culture news and Ask Him, a column that give women answers to what men want and need. There will also be a Lifestyle section that will focus on staying fit, beauty and fashion; an Entertainment section; which will highlight independent artists and celebrity news. Lit Magazine will feature stories about remarkable women in and out of the cigar world, along with information on cigar blogs and social networks connecting like-minded, strong, independent women. New brands and cigar accessories will also be highlighted.
The target audience will not only be women who enjoy smoking cigars; but also retailers, manufactures and corporate executives in the cigar industry who respect and value the female consumer and her input. Recognizing the power and influence of the growing number of female cigar lovers, the creators of Lit Lifestyle Magazine are sure it will lead to more than just respect and props from industry executives. They envision the magazine influencing creation of products and accessories to attract and inspire even more female cigar lovers."
I am proud to be a part of this growing trend in the cigar industry. Hold on to yer hats boys, the ladies are here so why don't you settle on down and come smell what we're smokin'!!! :D
Check out some of my favorite cigar blogs that are my go to information sources for cigar reviews and culture. This list contains blogs authored by women and men. Of particular interest to me are legislative issues concerning cigar regulations that may well affect the future of cigars in the U. S. No matter if you're a democrat, republican, independent or Tea Party member, if you smokes cigars, please pay attention to what might be coming down the pike and believe me, it ain't catfish!!! I'll elaborate more a bit later (links to sources will be posted soon.)
Also coming soon on my blog is an interesting entry about how I spent Saturday morning smoking cigars with our library dean (my boss) and a few new friends (May 6, 2012). I informed them I would post about it so they've been duly warned! LOL!
Smoke on !
