Background:

Smoked cigs for 30 years. Quit cold turkey. Picked up vaping 4 years ago at 12 nic level. Boring after a while. Picked up cigar smoking @ 6 weeks ago.

Likes so far:

Size:Robusto and longer

Gauge: 40-52

Body: depends on length/gauge but usually medium to full

Fond of Nicaraguan fillers, binders, and wrappers. I do enjoy the occasional Connecticut wrapper every now and again.

One straight and one v cutter and one punch. 2 single flame torch lighters. No humidor proper yet and I enjoy most every cigar with some Bourbon.

Seems like a crazy forum so I should fit right in.

Aloha from Hawaii. 👍

The Forum’s Master Interrogator should be along shortly to ask a few...but very important...questions. [frypan]

Hi new guy, welcome to the madhouse...glad you came...

skip the small desk-top humidor...ya might as well get a 120 qt cooler now...it'll cost about the same as a cheap desktop, but will serve you much better over many years...

you're prolly thinking this tip is just nuts...in about a year...you'll see...

Do you like camping by the river ?

Cello on or cello off ?

Ginger or Maryann ?

David Lee or Sammy ?

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison ?

Wad or fold ?

Do you like gladiator movies?

He's still here....geez.

I've been on message boards when it was IIRC for all you youngins.....I can handle it.

Hopefully I don't step on toes that take smoking cigars too seriously....you know who you are. No apologies now or.in the future if you're culo gets hurt.

And yes I'll play along with the CB personality quiz...please don't forget to rate me amongst other newbs based on my answers....as I'm sure you will.

Now for some fun..answers in order

French toast....flat bread is boring and waffles are just embossed pancakes

Short walks on the beach...I'm old and smoke..

No camping thank you

Cello on with out a humidor proper

Ginger anyday

David Lee..no brainer

Been to jail not prison

Fingers

Any movie where blood flies in slow motion across the screen and someone tells "Spaaaarrrttaaaa" is A-OK in my book.

Switch hands....whose got time for that? Rub that **** out and move on already. Three strokes gtfoh..some of y'all it might only take 3 strokes.

French toast, huh? That was a trick question. The correct answer was crepes.
