    Hi, my name is Stan. I'm 24 and have been in the US for about 5 years now :). Originally from far away Bulgaria. A recent college graduate with a passion for EVERYTHING! I work in the school I graduated from and had recently started to enjoy cigars on a regular basis. Got my whole set-up going and am reading up on my Idiot's Guide for Cigars :). I made an entry in the forums with a BANG lol (look at the trades and passes forum), but am really a very steady type of a person. lol... I'm looking forward to learning more about cigars and possibly making some trades - i like games... Cheers!

    Hey All, My name is Jimmy Huddleston & I live in Lubbock, Tx. I am 31 yrs. old, married, with a 2 1/2 yr old. I just smoked my 3rd official "real" ( non-convenience store) cigar. I picked up the hobby to quit smoking cigarettes and it is working so far (down to about three a day - maybe less). So far, I am completely consumed with getting set up to where all I have to do is grab one and enjoy while I relax. Also, I would be completely cool with it if anyone wanted to send me a trial cigar or two to help me get started on the right foot....LOL! Looking forward to learning from all who contributes.

    Hello all, Mark here from Minneapolis. I have had a few cigars over the years ( usually pieces of dried out wood handed to me by a golf partner). But, 2 weeks ago at my sons wedding, a friend handed me a MOW Ruination and I was hooked. He also sent me this link and I have been spending waaaayyy too much time at work reading these threads and getting educated. The general non-puffing public has no idea the subtleties and nuances of a good cigar, I know I didn't. Keep up the good reviews and discussion.

    Hey Mark ,,, Welcome it's nice to have you here.
  • Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 9,403
    Welcome aboard Mark. Your friend sure did start you off with a good cigar...I would have been floored, literally on the floor, if someone gave me a Ruination as a first cigar, they're not light on strength. Good to have you here, see you around.

    Mike here, from the St. Louis, MO area. I, like some others on here, was an infrequent smoker, mostly of mediocre cigars. My friend gave me a Cohiba (Cameroon?, not exactly sure on the specific type) to smoke and that was it. It had been a while since I had a cigar that good and now I think that smoking finer cigars will become a more regular habit of mine. I have started checking out the web and stumbled upon this site.

    I look forward to reading about others experiences and using those to help me pick a good cigars to try. I also hope to return the favor and let others know about good cigars that I may stumble upon.
