For starters go to this link. It gives all the most widely used abbreviations(ISOM). I made it and revised it. Print it out and save it.... :>)

Chad,

Do a search on ISOM and premiums and you'll get a bevy of information here on the board.

An ISOM = island south of miami (ie: cuba).

Welcome indeed. You've asked the same starter question that draws all newbies from just watching.. to posting. This included myself, of course.

Welcome to our little loonie bin ...

And, before you ask your next question ... "cello on or cello off?" ... you should know that we're of very mixed opinion here ... some say on and some say off ... some say "po-taa-to" and some say "to-mah-to" and so forth ... however, with only one or two exceptions, we DO agree that if you choose to store your cigars with the cello on, that you should remove it BEFORE you light the cigar ...

Of course, this topic, like many other questions you might have, if entered as a Search All query will provide you with hour after hour of happy reading ...

Welcome fellow newbie.

I'll borrow this quote from tail

"We simply reminded him where he is on the food chain.

Newbie is just below pond scum...and just above liberal..."

And I always thought pond scum was slightly above liberal.
