I’ve been wrestling with my website migration to a new host this weekend, and I about had an aneurysm this morning from trying to figure it out, so I’m cooling off and just sticking with the status quo. I have a couple weeks yet to work things out. Also, one or the chicks we hatched in June decided to loudly announce his gender this morning, so we will be rehoming a rooster today.

A few weeks back I happened to be. driving through Langhorne, PA and happened to see Cigar Phoenix, which is a relatively new chain of two stores in the Philadelphia suburbs. This is owned by Scott Atkinson, who bought out a few of the Cigar Cigars stores, in which he had an ownership stake.
