Have you read CA lately? They're getting better. They sucked from the Kevin Bacon issue right up until the Sopranos issue. The Sopranos issue is an improvement though and seems to be the direction that the magazine is taking.

I bought the Sopranos issue only because of the Sopranos article. That magazine will continue to suck as long as he is going for style and fashion. Hell, it is like Playboy without the pictures! What a bunch of trash the mag has turned into. Charlie PS-F--K Marvin!

Let's not be too hard on Marvin ... just as the cigar "craze" is slowing down, so has the revenue stream he enjoyed for the last 10 years. However, I agree that the Sopranos issue (as well as the latest Cuba issue) have been getting better. Remember folks, there's only so much you can write about cigars ... I thinks he's bridging the gap quite nicely by incorporating lifestyle in the magazine, as well.
