Ok so a bit more on angelology. I know Michael was the angel of Israel (or rather, I believe that I have read that, correct me if I'm wrong). Do jews have personal guardian angels?

Granted I'm not a Rabbi or play one in real life but I believe for Jews and specially boys/men their guardian angel is their mother's or so they believe, the mothers that is.

OK, how about a non-secular question:
What music do you enjoy listening to when enjoying a cigar or otherwise?

Malach Michoel is not necessarily the angel of Israel, just a very, very high level Malach that has been tied to many Jewish events.

No. Jews do not have personal guardian angels. G-d is our only guardian, who neither slumbers, nor sleeps.

Here is a nice piece on "angelology":
