    New Bums Introduction Thread

    Until we get everything built, I'm just going to start threads in the Main forum and migrate them to the appropriate sub-forums as we progress.

    Here goes,

    My name's Don and I'm a huge cigar and pipe enthusiast. I've been imbibing in the leaf since high school in the late 1970's. I dabbled in both throughout college and took a rather long hiatus in the 90's to focus on bicycle racing. I'd still smoke the occasional celebratory cigar, but nothing serious. In the late 90's I got pretty serious about storage and honing my palate. I joined Club Stogie in late 2008, just before it was merged into Puff. About a year after that and I was invited to become a moderator for Puff. It was a great job, which I enjoyed very much; the ability to give back to a community, which had given so much to me.

    I put a tremendous amount of work into Puff, but enjoyed the incredible camaraderie and friendship we all fostered there. Losing it broke my heart, but since I had no say over the financial aspects and ownership, was powerless to do anything to prevent it's demise.

    But, today is a new day and we have a brand new opportunity to recreate ourselves. We can take what we learned from Puff, the good, the bad and the ugly; embrace the good and kill the bad and ugly.

    I'm just happy to have a new place where we can carry on the great tradition we all put our hearts and souls into, without fear of some uncommitted third party spoiling it.

    Thanks for reading this and I'm damn glad to see ya!

    Don

    Looking forward to a new era post Puff.

    I'm Eric and have dabbled in cigars since the early 90's. A cigar or two here and there and occationally a pipe for the next 15 years or so. Always had them on hand but it wasn't until I hit up a cigar store with a great owner and friendly staff that I became hooked. The Kristoff maduro (fantastic!) the owner gave me sealed the deal. Wasn't too long after that when I started searching the web and came across Puff early 2009. Lurked for 6 months before joining and then the journey took off.
    Met some incredibly knowledgable and friendly people on Puff and it became a home away from home. Lots of trades, bombs, and passes gave me a deep appreciation of cigars from different regions.

    Fast forward to 2013 and I was asked to be a mod. Surprising isn't it! Thoroughly enjoyed all of my time there and am looking forward to making cigarbum my new cigar forum home.

    PS. Been a member of other cigar forums for a while too. On any of them my username, piperdown, is the same.

    Looking forward to hearing from all of you fellow cigar enthusiasts!

    Hey all, I'm Blake... and I'm a cigaraholic.
    I'm from the province of Nova Scotia but currently live in Saskatchewan up here in the great white north. Pretty new to cigars but really enjoying my, both feet first, jump into the hobby. I've always had an interest but for one reason or another (mostly lack of disposable income) I've never really gotten into the hobby other than the odd captain black or old port gas station cheapies (term used loosely here in Canada). Summer of 2014 I stumbled upon the 2 threads on puff about Companies that deliver to Canada and became hooked on the idea, lurked around for a while then finally joined the forum and pulled the trigger on my first order and have been hooked ever since.

    Recently my grandfather has been diagnosed with dementia/Alzheimer and being this far away as his condition deteriorates I've spent alot of time remembering him as a child. He was a pipe smoker for years and the smell of someone burning a bowl always throws me back to spending summers visiting him. So because of all this, along with my journey into cigars, I'm taking the first steps into pipe smoking as well. Awaiting my first order as we speak and can't wait to jump into that side of the hobby too.

    With both of these similar hobbies I'm sure, with time, I'll find the same amazing comradery and advice on here as the was on the previous site. And just maybe, in time, I'll be qualified enough to add to it and help another noob get off the ground in this amazing hobby.

    Morning all, Heard about this place on the asylum thought I would check it out. Long time cigar smoker and enthusiast. Small time cigar collector, I guess I smoke them almost as fast as I get them.

    Hey, all old Puffer friends and new Bums!! I was active on Puff for a couple of years, but kind of dropped off in the last year or so (focused on family, and craft beer!); but I continued to enjoy cigars!
    My grandfather smoked 13 Te-Amo or White Owl cigars a day while working; He lived a long, healthy and happy life! I have fond memories of him and his cigars, so I have a special connection to him through my cigar hobby.
    I learned so much from the good and generous BOTL on Puff, so I am looking forward to reconnecting and meeting new Bums.
    My tastes run the range of sizes and styles, but my go-to styles and sizes are in full-flavored robustos and bigger. Recently smoked one of those Asylum 8x80s! Whoa. Holy $#@*!!
    Everyday sticks include Liga Undercrown, AB Black Markets, DPG CC and JJ Maduro; Bueso Genesis; JDN Antanos;
    Special sticks include Liga UF-13 and Pigs; PSD #4 and Behikes; Camacho Triple Maddie...
    Love hoppy beer and stouts and sipping rums (Zaya and Zacapa);
    We usually gather out in the Doom Saloon--my converted garage--for cigars, music, mischief, and beer tastings.
    Thanks Don, for getting this up and running!! It's Good to be back!
