STATEMENT REGARDING FEDERALLY SPONSORED RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT [0002] Not Applicable. THE NAMES OF THE PARTIES TO A JOINT RESEARCH OR DEVELOPMENT Not Applicable. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] 1. Field of the Invention [0004] The present invention relates to storing a cylindrical smoking material, such as a cigarette or a mini cigar and particularly to a pocket-sized airtight cigarette container having a cap with a pocket clip thereon. [0005] 2. Description of Related Art Including Information Disclosed Under 37 CFR 1.97 and 1.98 [0006] Many cigarette extinguishing and storing devices exist in the prior art which simulate a ball-point pen, and include a cap that is adapted to cover one end of an elongated body for storing the cigarette or cigar. [0007] U.S. Pat. No. 2,038,350 issued Apr. 21, 1936 to Farinella, is for a safety cigar cover having a hollow fireproof container shaped like a cigar with a cap snapping bead to retain the cap and a pocket clip on the outside. It has a removable replaceable lining. [0008] U.S. Pat. No. 6,298,857, issued Oct. 9, 2001 to Schmidt, is for a hand held portable humidor including an upper housing and a telescopically interfitting lower housing, with a ridge structure integrally formed on the upper housing and adapted to secure both a cigar cutter and a belt clip mechanism to the upper housing. In a preferred embodiment, the lower housing is formed with substantially parallel ribs thereacross which contact the upper housing when the lower housing slides within the upper housing. An alternative embodiment of the humidor also includes a clip mechanism for securing the humidor to an item of wearing apparel. [0009] U.S. Patent Application #20040084055, published May 6, 2004 by Rebensdorf, concerns an air and watertight portable container for carrying and extinguishing a cigarette. The container comprises an elongated cylindrical tube having a closed end and an open end disposed opposite the closed end for receiving an ignited cigarette; said open end has female threads for removably receiving a mating set of male threads connected to a cap, wherein the cap contains an O-ring located on a seat between the upper portion of the male threads and the bottom portion of a lip located on said cap. [0010] U.S. Pat. No. 6,431,177, issued Aug. 13, 2002 to Sieggen, provides a cigarette extinguishing and storage device, which comprises a first hollow cylinder having an open end and a closed end. A second hollow cylinder constructed of a heat resistant material is concentric to the first cylinder and mounted therein. The second cylinder includes an open end adjacent the open end of the first cylinder and a closed end longitudinally spaced from the closed end of the first cylinder, thus forming an interior space therebetween. A plurality of partitions extend between the closed ends of the first and second cylinders and are positioned to form a plurality of dead air spaces for inhibiting a heat exchange between the closed ends. The second cylinder presents a diameter sufficient to permit a lit cigarette to be received therein. The device includes a third hollow cylinder having an open end and a closed end and having a diameter greater than a diameter of the first cylinder for releasably receiving the first cylinder therein. [0011] U.S. Pat. No. 6,920,885, issued Jul. 26, 2005 to Braun, is for a cigarette holding apparatus and method for reducing or quitting use of smokers' articles. The apparatus is a tube which can readily be used to extinguish and preserve partially-smoked cigarettes for later use. The method involves use of the apparatus to periodically cut back on cigarette use until an acceptable level is reached. [0012] U.S. Pat. No. 2,715,961, issued Aug. 23, 1955 to Field, indicates a three-piece safety extinguisher for ignited tobacco products, which has two compartments and a removable cap. The first compartment extinguishes the smoking material and the second compartment extinguishes matches. [0013] U.S. Pat. No. D409,327, issued May 4, 1999 to Brock, shows the ornamental design for a cigarette extinguisher. [0014] U.S. Pat. No. 4,660,575, issued Apr. 28, 1987 to Andreason, claims a cigarette extinguisher which can readily be inserted into a conventional pack of cigarettes or the pocket of a user. It comprises a hollow cylinder with open ends, sized to store therein a lighted cigarette. A removable end cap covers one end to removably seal the same. A slidable keeper is mounted proximate the open end to releasably hold via a friction fit a cigarette inserted therein. [0015] U.S. Pat. No. 6,463,936, issued Oct. 15, 2002 to Hicks, describes a cigarette handling system that comprises a housing in a generally tubular configuration. The housing is formed with a sidewall and an integrally formed circular bottom wall and an open upper end. The housing is fabricated of a rigid moldable plastic material selected from the class of rigid moldable plastics. The housing has an exterior surface with a reduced diameter at the bottom wall and enlarged adjacent to the top. The housing has an interior surface, the interior surface being hollow for forming a chamber adapted to receive a lit cigarette and with the sidewall tapering radially outwardly from adjacent to the bottom toward the upper end with the upper end being end being flared slightly. This is to facilitate the guidance and entry of the lit end of a cigarette into the chamber. A supplemental layer of heat resistant material is on the interior surface of the housing. [0016] U.S. Pat. No. 4,865,053, issued Sep. 12, 1989 to Girona, discloses a combination holder and cover for a substantially cylindrical wrapped smoking material whereby a lit tobacco product is placed in said holder and inserted into said cover until said holder and cover fit snugly, thereby extinguishing the lit tobacco product and providing a means for storing and protecting the tobacco product for re-smoking or disposal. Alternatively, the holder is in the form of a mouthpiece through which the tobacco product can be smoked. [0017] U.S. Pat. No. 4,819,666, issued Apr. 11, 1989 to Turver, indicates an elongated container that has a main body at least as long as a cigarette. The body holds an interiorly threaded cylinder and has an upper end that is exteriorly threaded. A container cap has threads engageable with the body's exterior threads. There is a serrated cup and ash holder inside the container engaging the interior threads, and a knob is provided for rotating the cylinder to cause them to go up and down in the container, depending on the direction of rotation. The main body preferably has a clip on its exterior. [0018] U.S. Pat. No. 6,273,094, issued Aug. 14, 2001 to Potter, illustrates a tobacco product snuffer that is constructed of three elements, i.e. a tubular member, a sleeve which fits within the tubular member and a cap which secures the sleeve in place. The sleeve has an inside diameter to slidably receive a lighted cigarette or the like. The cap has a bore through which a cigarette is to be inserted into the sleeve and from which an end of the cigarette is able to project for ease of removal for re-use. Multiple sleeves are provided to accommodate differently sized cigarettes or tobacco products. [0019] U.S. Pat. No. 6,354,302, issued Mar. 12, 2002 to Bingham, is for an adjustable device for snuffing out smoking tobacco products of various diameters. The device is comprised of a housing having a first open end, a second closed end, and a cavity formed therebetween; a slider within the cavity having an opening defined by an inner surface for accepting a burning end of a smoking tobacco product; and an adjustable retainer disposed within the opening wherein the retainer and the slider work in concert to snugly accept the burning end of the smoking tobacco product. [0020] U.S. Pat. No. 5,499,634, issued Mar. 19, 1996 to Herrmann, provides a device for extinguishing lighted tobacco products, such as cigarettes and cigars, which includes an elongated, tubular cap having a closed, upper end terminating in a cap end wall and an open, upper end, as well as an elongated, tubular holder constructed and arranged to be telescoped within the cap and having an open, upper end and a lower, closed end terminating in a holder end wall opposite the closed, upper end of the cap. The holder has a radially outwardly projecting collar between the open, upper end and the closed, lower end and the cap has a series of longitudinally extending biasing strips located about an inner liner of the cap, the biasing strips being normally biased outwardly towards the longitudinal center line of the cap. The open, upper end of the holder is tapered outwardly in the direction of the closed, lower end thereof and terminates in the collar. The tapered holder is engageable with the biasing strips on the cap as the holder is telescoped within the cap until the open, lower end of the cap abuts the collar on the holder to thereby form a frictional closure between the cap and the holder whereby a lighted tobacco product placed in the holder is extinguished by frictional closure between the cap and the holder.
