I just noticed this thread, new to the cigar world. Never smoked before. Smoke maybe 3 times a week or so, depends on mood. I drink Single Malt, neat only. I also brew beer, just as a hobby, not a job. Work for a big old southern airline fixing fuel controls on engines. Married to an Indian woman with a son, and two dogs. born and raised in wyoming, now living in Atlanta... cant wait to get back to the west and retire...

Howdy Folks, I may be a newby to this forum, but I have also made the rounds. I am considered a celebrity in the eyes of many, especially in the chicken rhelm. Chickens are not very fond of me though... I am Colonel Johnny D. Miller and I am the official Global Brand Ambassador for the Kentucky Fried Chicken corporation based in Louisville, KY. In other words I am a professional Colonel Harland Sanders impersonator and KFC uses me for their official Colonel Sanders events all around the world and I also do TV commercials. Most of my work currently is overseas even though I was the first live actor KFC used as Colonel Sanders in 2011 when they started their Re-Colonelation program to re-introduce Colonel Sanders back into their marketing since his passing in 1980. I do so love a good cigar, even though Colonel Sanders did not smoke. Naturally I enjoy the Drew Estates Kentucky Fire Cured (KFC) "Just a Friend" as my main cigar. Indeed very satisfing and refreshing for my tastes and needs. I also hand them out to my friends who indulge. Please check out my official website at colsandersimpersonator.com for more information about my most fun and rewarding job.

Welcome, Colonel, I hear that KFC is big in Japan at Christmastime. Funny thing, my family has started a tradition of going out for sushi on Christmas eve. Welcome to the forum.

Hi all. My name's Mark, I'm 25. I've already posted in a few discussions since I got here, but I just discovered the newbie thread while browsing through the trades and bombs. Definitely interested in that once I'm further along! Tons of great information on here.
First let me say it's gonna be hard to top the Colonel - welcome aboard fellow BOTL! Started smoking cigars just over a year ago when I came across a certain superstore in Hamburg, PA. I'd had a few in the past, but 2016 was definitely a year of education. I'm still learning, sampling everything I come across, while spending most of my free time trying to broaden my horizons. I've begun to shop around more instead of putting all of my eggs in one basket. Found a nice B&M in Gettysburg which I need to get back to as well as one I now frequent in Winchester, Virginia. I've got two desktop humidors filled to their brims, and a (150 count?) 5 Vegas box on the way.
The first ten years of my career were focused on doing what I have always loved - working on the railroad. Coupled to that is my new production company, which is my first solo endeavor, producing and distributing railroad-related DVDs. I've also just went into business with my best friend down in Virginia/West Virginia. We are starting a classic car restoration and detailing shop just outside of Winchester. This will hopefully become my main bread and butter, and I'm planning to move down there permanently this summer.
That pretty much sums up my bio. I look forward to getting to know you guys and gals.
-Mark
