Hey there,

I'm brand new to the forum here, if the topic and my post count didn't give it away, and wanted to introduce myself.

I've been smoking cigars for a little over ten years, ever since I could get away with getting into the local brick and mortar. Most of my time is spent with my wife and son, who just turned one. What a ride the last year has been.

Luckily, I work from home, as a software developer / consultant, which allows me to head to my local shop about three times a week to work and enjoy a cigar at the same time. Most of my cigar purchases have always been from my local shop until I recently discovered CigarBid. After winning some bids, I decided to check out the forum. I'm also new to forums in general, as this is my first one. After reading through some of the topics, I knew this was a forum I wanted to be a part of. Reading about the "Platinum Membership" and the CBid Customer Service rep had me cracking up. I can tell this is a good group of people that enjoy having a good time, all while sharing a love for cigars.

As far as cigars go, I enjoy mostly medium-full bodied blends, and I have been on a Nicaragua kick for the last couple of years. I enjoy most of the Nicaraguan staples, with a few of my favorites being Perdomo, Oliva, Padron, and to my pleasant surprise Drew Estate (Liga, Undercrown, and Herrera). My go to value smoke is the Perdomo Lot 23, I have yet to find another smoke for the price that consistently delivers solid construction, taste, and strength.

I'm looking forward to getting to know you folks and joining in on the fun. I did just join in on the Noob PIB, and I"m looking forward to participating in more trades and the like.

Cheers,
Jason

Welcome to the asylum, Jsnyder. I'm not sure what got into everybody...this is not how we usually say hello to noobs. Must be the earnest, orderly and dignified intro post....good spelling...proper paragraphs...grammatically correct, for the most part...

Smells kinda fishy... sounds so formal, almost governmental. CBid bros have been on edge lately, crying about the Patriot Act... surveillance...wondering if they'll be identified and hauled off in the middle of the night...

who you with?
