As luck would have it, I will be headed to Copenhagen - yes, that one, the one in Denmark - soon. It may be a long shot but I was wondering if anyone has been to that great city and, more particularly, if anyone has found a good pipe shop? With makers like Eltang and Nording right there it...

Gentlemen, are any of you going to attend Cigar Aficionado's Big Smoke Las Vegas in November? Tickets went on sale a few days ago. I was already set to be in Las Vegas that weekend so I am going to grab a ticket for Friday evening. The price of admission ain't cheap but considering what I...

Gentlemen (and a lady or two),   My apologies for not being very active on CP over the past couple of months.  In addition to being my 'busy season' in the office, I also coach and coordinate our local lacrosse club.  It seems like every minute of March and April is consumed.   I know that many...

I like to get high in the Rocky Mountains...since the snow there is impeccable (certainly far better than Utah).  I am soon heading out to Steamboat for some all mountain snowboarding.  And some winter fly fishing since there are fish there.   ALL of EVERYTHING that I read about Colorado right...

Nothing says football like a solid Cincinnati versus Pittsburgh matchup! Cincinnati should rock this one tonight against what appears to be a fairly weak Pittsburgh team. No guarantees, no wagers. But look for me in the stands. Oh, and if you are going, head to Nippert Stadium instead of...

Crooked Arrows opened nationwide on June 1 and has been widely noted as the first mainstream movie about the sport of lacrosse. The other story line in the movie shows Native American culture in a positive light. I saw the movie this morning in an outing that I arranged for our local youth...

I looked around and did not see where this rather amusing website, ( http://www.whiskyblender.com ), has been noted on CP. The concept of being able to blend my own scotch whisky is intriguing. Has anyone tried this?

Mike Judge is a genius and his return to the abhorrent MTV is a welcome thing. Beavis and Butthead are the great television philosophers of our time. (Where is Seanholio when you need him?)

I have been sicker that sick over the past few days and haven't made it out of the house. So, feeling at least a little better this morning I decided that my first order of business was to head to the track to place some bets on today's Kentucky Oaks race at Churchill. I don't know what the...

Some of us had the experience of attending 'The Big Pittsburgh Herf in Ohio' a few years ago. That event was some kind of odd Pittsburgh Steeler fashion show with Steeler fans engaging in varying forms of black and gold elephant walks and leap frog matches. (At least they said it was leap...

There was really not much shock in the vote that REPEALED the smoking ban in Campbell County, Kentucky. The jackass council that passed the ordinance only did so because they were lame ducks on their way out and they wanted to stir some s%$t. None the less, I find it amusing that a smoking ban...

I will be headed west to do some snowboarding in Breckenridge next month. If any of you fine folks have tips on the town, the mountain or anything else then let me know. I have been to lots of other Colorado destinations but I have never been to Breckenridge!

How many can you afford? Many thanks to Ray (AVB) for the gift sent on the occasion of the starting of my new law office! The book will go front and center in the entry way of my office. Only 38 days for the USPS to get it from Pennsylvania to Ohio...that's pretty good, right? 38 days...

When: December 28, 2010 at 5:00 pm (or so) Where: The Beer Sellar located at 301 Riverboat Row, Newport, KY 41071 What: The Party Source Tuesday night herf OK, so McWarrior, ALostTexan and I will be in attendance next Tuesday for The Party Source herf. These herfs have been made famous by...

Has anyone been to Cleveland Indian Snow Days? I know that you would have to breathe the air in Ohio's armpit to be at this event but the concept is amusing and people seem to be enjoying the ballpark in the winter. Gets people downtown. Makes people feel better about how bad the Indians are...

As my screen name suggests, I am a lawyer...but not THAT kind of lawyer. Six years ago my current law firm made me an offer that I could not refuse. My work there has paid my way but corroded my soul. I have been successful but not happy. Oddly, I was both successful and happy prior to...

Snap, our beagle / yellow lab mixed dog, had to take to the road today. From what I understand she was under attack from a stray dog that was double her size. This dog had also bitten a lady who lives a street over. Animal control is looking to handle that problem. I suppose that you could...

What with at least two recent CP introductions coming from folks who claim beautiful, scenic Akron, Ohio as their home AND with the likes of Breedy wearing the City name on his chest AND with the likes of CigarStone being very very close to Akron, I think we Buckeyes can be secure in knowing...
