Hi all,
AVB suggested I do an intro, which sounded like a good idea, so here it is... not sure exactly what to include, so here's a short bio:
(Sorry to bore ya!) Happily married, Idaho, 42, Program Manager, former paratrooper, 3 sons, no pets, blah, blah, blah....
I was introduced to cigars about 6 months ago when some guys I work with and I started playing weekly poker games. Since then, I've gotten slowly but firmly drawn into the fold. Now, I look forward to the cigar breaks more than the poker. (We've begun playing our games in the garage now so that we can smoke through the entire game without suffering the wraths of our repsective spouses or getting kicked outside... heh heh...)
Anyway, being a newbie I'm still trying to find my favorite smoke. I like to try different brands and sizes. At first, I stuck with milder sticks but now I enjoy those in the Medium range. I keep notes (taste, contruction, draw, appearance, etc.) on everything I smoke so I can remember what I like and what I don't.
That's about it... Next poker game is tomorrow, so all is well in the world. (Except it's in the friggin garage -- and it's cold as hell -- ah, well, the smokes make it worth it!)
If you've read through all of this muck and are still awake, thanks for your time!
Smoke 'em if you've got 'em!
