New Bums Introduction Thread

[RogueBallBoy]

Was wicked_rhube at Puff. Thought about keeping the name here so I'd be recognized, but I chose that name as a way of saying that I knew jack crap about cigars. After learning so much from you people over the last couple years I feel like it's time to retire it, new beginning so and all. So anyway, I'm really psyched that Don put this together and I hope to help make it great!

Hi everyone,I'm Matthew from guthrie,Ok.I've been a smoker for over 30 yrs,pipes and cigars for around 10-15.And premium cigars for 6 yrs.I'm best at inane comments that have nothing to do with reality,and most ppl know better than to trust my tastes on coffee additives.I enjoy a good scotch with a mild to medium stick.Well other than that there's not much interesting about me.

Welcome Bill and Matt!

Rhube, great to see you.

Well it's been like 8 days so I guess I better reintroduce myself since I'm sure some of you FOG have probably forgotten who I am. They say that the memory is the first thing to go and I don't remember what the other ones are.

I'm Bill and I'm actually a FOG as well since I passed the half century mark a few revolutions around the sun ago. I started smoking cigars in the mid 90s during the first Cigar Boom. Back then there really weren't internet forums per se, just Usenet newsgroups like alt.smokers.cigars and most of the time I got cigars from B&Ms. I did order a few boxes off the internet, cigars with names like Big Butt, Double Happiness and Fighting Cock...heh...he said butt & cock...heh.

I dropped out of the hobby sometime around the turn of the century and just picked it up a few months ago. Amazing how many new marques have hit the market since then.

That's really about all. I sell advertising for a major metropolitan media group, umpire high school and college baseball and my wife and I love sitting out on the porch puffing on good cigars with our 3 dogs on lazy summer evenings. Oh and my favorite color is orange

Damn Bill, you must really like orange to write this post three times! LOL
