I was once a regular cigar smoker years ago. But it has been about 13 years since. I picked up some lung issues from the middle east and my now ex wife didn't approve of them anyway. Long story short... My now lovely bride doesn't mind and I am trying to get back in the swing of things but man it's tough. I used to even host a forum site but it since has died. Things change. Heck come to find out the torano family sold out.. crazy. But anyway. Here i am humbeled at how much i have forgotten and how little i seem to know anymore. Small but about me. I live in memphis and a favorite sick of mine was an onyx reserve box pressed.

That's the plan. Thanks. Been reading through some posts and sounds like alot had changed. Cigars that i used to smoke have lost their quality and such. But u have a humidor setup and primed with a few sticks so i am on my way. Woohoo

Welcome back to the addiction, er, hobby. Lot of fun in this place. Head over to the trade forum and jump into the Noob PIB. Great way to try some new, or in your case possibly rediscovered, sticks and build some trade cred. Have a thick skin, and enjoy the chaos.

Covfireman: where was i in the middle east? If thats the question i was in Kuwait. I did a search on thonginator and the links i found dont work. Keep telling me it doesnt exist. Will try to manually go through the forums.

Hey noisy: either my backyard or on my center console are usually my only options.

Never make to Havana mix, Burning desire or Tinderbox?

I sometimes even find myself going to Fox & Hound to watch a game or play shuffleboard.
