Hey everyone, I couldn't find any threads for new guy introduction/hazing threads so I'm starting my own. I've been lurking around here for a couple of weeks and its time to introduce myself. I've been a cigar enjoyer(not an aficionado yet... enthusiastic but working on the knowledgable part) for a little over a month. I'm in Iraq with nothing to do so I went way outta control and moved from a small ammo can to a 100 count humidor and now im using a ziplock-a-dor for overflow. All the guys I work with say all the same stuff you guys do so I can relate with all of your comments about politics and boobies. Anyways, its nice to find a group and sorry for the long post!!

re 1: "I’m in Iraq with nothing to do" -- Um, no. I'm in Los Angeles with "nothing to do." If you're in Iraq, I'm sure you have PLENTY to do.

As for apologizing about the "long post," have you met jpotts?

P.S. Welcome.

#2 I'm at Al Taqaddum right now. I just got back from a month at Sahl Sinjar, and I'll be at Al Asad here pretty soon before I go home.

#3 Actually I dont do much besides take naps on the couch and smoke cigars all night. I'm a huey/cobra avionics tech. and I am the desk sgt. so I am just in charge of telling everyone else what to do..... and nope, i havent met jpotts.

#7 That's a great organization, but I would feel bad taking advantage of it. We get so much food and stuff out here as it is that we cant use all the stuff we get, but thanks!!

and #9 cello OFF all the way!! I just love the way dark, oily cigars look in all their naked glory. I like to stand in front of my humidor and just stare every night.... its almost better than porn

Al Asad, hmmmmmmmmmm

There are a couple of guys in the Al Asad Cigar Club. Do a search of the forums, particularly the Picture Post.

Hopefully, iwildman will be along and introduce himself.

If you get to Camp Victory, or anywhere in Baghdad, look me up. We'll light one up and tell lies about our stay in the Sand Box.

yeah, i've heard some good lies from people over here before... I don't even try to embellish my experience over here because i can be lazy and cruise the boards all night every night. I have it as good as it gets.

blah blah blah blah I'm a noob. blah blah blah blah Boobies.

Ok, so you saved yourself with the boobies comment. Oh, and thanks for your service. Kinda hard to cut up on you now, but yer still a noob.

TW will be along with some anal statement or how he was kicked out of a Walmart while trying on camo undies so just be warned.

milesdt85, Welcome. It's true, noob threads can go south fast. You've gained some invincible bubble shield for your attention to our favorite topics, aviation, boobies and far too much free time. Congrats.

I think all the good advice has been covered thus far, but make sure you familiarize yourself real good with #16's advice. 🙂
