Hello everyone,

I just joined the forum today. I know Eulogy and I'm actually Expendable's room mate. I've known them since middle school. They got me into smoking cigars, and so naturally, I followed the bandwagon here. I've met June (dunno how to spell it, sorry man) and the four of us are about to start a blind tasting on Friday.

Let's see.. I'm currently in college, going for a Bachelor's in Science of Registered Nursing. I used to own a house but sold it and now im using the money to support myself through school (and my smoking habits). I'm currently a combat medic (68W) in the Army National Guard. I've been in for 5 1/2 years, out in December, counting down the days.

I'm far from an expert in cigars, but I know what I like and why I like it. I don't know Cubans because ive never tried one, but I like a lot of stuff out of Dominican republic and Nicaragua. I don't only smoke cigars. I also smoke cigarettes, and dip exclusively during military bullshit because you don't always have time for a smoke, and if you've ever had to sit through a suicide prevention course and sexual harassment awareness training for 12+ hours of death by powerpoint as well, you would know my pain.

I'm a bit of a nerd. I love building computers for some odd reason. been building and fixing computers since elementary school. at some point i'll post some pictures of my latest creations. I also like anime. cowboy bebop was awesome, as well as some others im not going to post at the moment. I have a small collection, but it is steadily growing. and before I get ***, no, I don't like hentai.

I love guns. guns are great. I currently own a beretta 92A1 (basically the civilian version of the m9, but with more goodies) and a custom 1911 by dan Wesson. I am surgically precise with both. im thinkin of sending out my beretta to Wilson combat sometime soon for a nice overhaul.

I'm 6'1" 185 lbs, enjoy shooting, smoking, and open shirt horseback riding on the beach with the breeze gently whisping through my long luxurious hippy hair as I recite poetry under the setting sun. nah im just kidding, but ill kick your ass in (insert videogame here). im also extremely addicted to energy drinks.

some of my favorite cigars include Padron 1926 maduro, Alec Bradley Prensado (basically the only alec Bradley I like anymore), Ashton ESG and VSG, God of Fire Carlito (haven't had the don carlos yet, but I have some coming. cant wait!) Camacho Pre-Embargo (dunno if you consider this a Cuban) Arturo fuente almost everything. didn't like the double chateau's though, oliva V line is great, but I hate their other stuff. my father is also good.

There's so many friggin cigar brands out there that I find it difficult to imagine trying them all, and im sure I forgot some gems in that quick list off the top of my head.

anyways, that's me. i'll see you all around on the forums!

    So, since you know those guys, what you're saying is, you're pre-lubricated, right?
