USAF Veteran of 23+ years, still serving.
Husband to my amazing Wife, Angelique. We have a Fur Baby named Geronimo who is a Maltese Chihuahua mix. My previous companion was an incredible Weimaraner named Deuce.
I am an Expert/Pro Privateer motorcycle circuit racer and certified Instructor. I currently race a 2001 Suzuki GSXR 1000 with the American Historical Motorcycle Racing Association (AHRMA) and a 2021 Suzuki GSXR 1000R at a plethora of circuits locally and regionally in Vegas and the South West.
I am an overall motorsports enthusiast, not limited to motorbikes. I have a 2006 Audi S4 25th Anniversary Edition that I will take to the track some day when I am done playing with motorcycles. My wife has a 2003 911 Carrera 996 as well as a 2021 Kawasaki Ninja 400R.
I am a huge fan of Science Fiction and Sci-Fi Fantasy books as well as movies. I recently finished the first six Dune books by Frank Herbert. The "hexalogy" if you will. My wife has dove into Tolkien and is working through the Hobbit and LOTR. We also enjoy reading/talking about Stoic Philosophy, neuroplasticity, mental development, and the power of manifestation.
I am a stodgy old New England Catholic with a wide experience of Christian denominations and worship.
I love to write short stories, poems, and motorsport related media. I am a published author and Journalist from previous adventures.
Finally I am a singer, former trumpet player, and a drummer. Sadly I have not had room to setup my drum kit for going on 4 years now. I have a 6 piece Pearl Export Series Select in "orange mist" with hand selected Sabian, Zildjian, and Paiste cymbals.

Cigars!
I started on this adventure in May of 2021. I remember this because my loving wife gifted me a leather bound journal that I began storing cigar bands in and writing about my experiences.
Currently I have settled into smoking primarily Davidoff cigars or cigars blended/produced by Henkie Kelner and/or his family. It's a sickness honestly. I started this hobby looking at Davidoff as ridiculous in many ways and now I embody those thoughts of me as a young partaker of the leaf 3 and a half years ago.
I enjoy collecting certain lines and brands just as much as smoking them. Cubans of all sorts, fancy LE and discontinued Davidoff & Avo, Smoking Jacket, and recently Padron.
I love to re-arrange and take photo's of the collection as well, and my secret pleasure is vintage humidors. If I could I would have a massive collection of vintage, traditional humidors from the past.

Trades/ISO: Always down for a trade and helping out if you're looking for certain cigars. For example, Johnny-O was looking for an empty box of Behike 54/56 and I was happy to indulge in the quest. I was able to secure a genuine 54 box with papers and to my surprise, the suede cover as well. I enjoy tracking down hard to get/find cigars, please don't hesitate to shoot me a DM if there's something you can't find or are looking for. I'd be honored to help if I can.
