Ron took the bull by the horns – November’s gathering was to be held at Motor City Casino on Grand River and the Lodge freeway. This outing was all about change! First, it was on a Friday night – Friday, November 21, 2003; 6:30 pm. The second change was that dinner would not be the […]

Mark’s month, and the Big Rock Chop House was a great suggestion from his better half, Judy. This also was a casual attempt at “L’Anniversiare Spectacular”, since it was one year since the inception of our little get-togethers. The intention was booths by the bar at Big Rock from 6-8, then up to the cigar/martini […]

OK gang, I (Jeremy) was thinking that it was time for our first-ever return to a place of previous gathering: Centre Street Pub in the Harmonie Park district (See February ’03), Thursday, September 25th.

June’s Tokenring gathering was at the Hazel Park Race way on Thursday, June 26th. Patrick went there in advance and it had all the makings of a great night: booze, food, gambling, and a sleaze factor that just made him all warm inside. We had a few tables in the clubhouse around 6 pm. The […]

After our failure to get a quorum for the expensive cigar dinner opportunity the previous week, Mark proposed Bahama Breeze (http://www.bahamabreeze.com/ ), out on the enclosed porch, on Wednesday the 23rd at 6pm. It’s a pretty fun place, diverse food menu (great sandwiches), and an extensive selection of rum (Mojitos!). It was a cool, breezy […]

The food was great (loved that spicy blackened chicken pizza), the staff were great (thanks, Mohammad!), the cigars were even better than usual. The official plan was: Local Color Brewing Company in Novi, 6:30pm, Tuesday, March 25th. I offered a free beer to the first one (besides me) that showed up, and Barry was there […]

Located in the same area as Intermezzo’s Restaurant and Coaches Corner bar. We were so impressed with the place that we leased a humidor box! Patrick stuffed it with Makers’ Mark, and […]
