    Hey all, 
    My name’s Jimmy and I am going to have way to much fun with this. I’ve been smoking cigars about 8 years with ever changing regularity. Im from Indiana and am a huge Pacer’s fan. My friend told me about this and I’ve honestly never been on a forum. Super interested in these trading, passing, pay it forward, and bomb ideas. That sound so awesome. Anyways just introducing myself and hoping to get to know some people who’ve been here a while! Thanks all! Smoke em if you got em!
    What part of Indy are you from? There are a few Hoosiers that are ok

    @smoke_em_if_you_got_em
    Trust me I’m going to love it here. I’m not going anywhere. What are you smoking tonight? I’ve been deciding between 3 for tonight a Hemingway Classic, a CAO Flathead 660V, or a smaller stick with a CAO Columbia.

    30 minutes north of Indy. If you’re from Saint Louis and called me a Hoosier you wouldn’t be the first and you’d get this reference haha but if not I think we could be friends!

    Hi everyone! I am Larry, 30 from the Pittsburgh area.  Been smoking cigars since my younger brother got me into them about 5 years ago.  Some of my favorites include RoMa Craft BA XXI Intrigue, PSD4, Leaf by Oscar Maduro, and Bolivar Royal Corona.  Currently in Chapel Hill, NC for a conference and looking for a lounge/shop in the area to check out tonight- any suggestions would be great! Thanks!

    @TNBigfoot68 I’ll try to figure out joining you on it. I’ll be on my phone. Also if I found the bio and updated it I don’t know what it was can you point me in the right direction? Was it the activity post on my name page?

    Yes it is your profile, on the right corner of your profile is a figure with a drop down arrow that will let you change the about section (profile / Bio) and boom you got it. The fact you have already uploaded a picture makes you smarter than me. It took me a while.

    Welcome, @Slurry. I visited Chapel Hill during a business trip but didn't look for a lounge. I was getting sick so I didn't venture out much. Check out Al's Burger Shack for some good burgers.

    Greetings,

    I am new to posting to the forum and still relatively new to Cogar’s in general. I guess you could say I’m still developing my palate. Chocolate, coffee and cigars are my only remaining vices - unless you count naps - which I don’t.
    Still figuring things out here so I apologize in advance for any breaks in decorum.
    when not sitting on the porch enjoying a smoke and coffee, I am riding my Harley, messing around with music in the basement studio, or answering people’s questions about pool heaters (gotta pay the bills!)
    I look forward to “meeting” people on here, learning, and laughing.

    Cheers

    Welcome @12Ultralimited!  Best way to know, learn the good stuff is to buy a @Bigshizza sampler from Jim, smoke whatever the heck Nick @Usaf06 is smoking, and complete your newbie trade (in the trades discussion) with any of the guys!

    Smoking a My Father Connecticut Toro Gordo. Nice stick. A bit too expensive for an everyday cigar --- but nice draw, smoke, and flavors. Just got a new humidor - so looking forward to filling it with some good sticks that won't break the bank! Picked up a range of things at my local brick and mortar store tonight. Need to find some good "inexpensive" alternatives! Any recommendations are always welcome!
  • TpitmanTpitman Posts: 20 ✭✭
    Sorry guys --- that was the wrong thread!
  • TNBigfoot68TNBigfoot68 Posts: 2,754 ✭✭✭✭✭
    @Tpitman, taste and price is realative, welcome to the forum,  get you some samplers to se what you like. Sometimes the daily deals and auctions you can snag things you like cheap.

    Welcome @Tpitman

    buy 5-packs online it will be cheaper

    I am a 58 year old small business owner who just got into cigars again. I enjoy the mild to med range sticks but will venture into the full flavors on occasion. Still searching for that elusive "perfect" stick at the right price. I like the My Father brands and the Arturo Fuente brands --- by Not their price tags!  I welcome any and all recommendations!!!
