Hello from a new member

Hello everyone. I have just registered with the forum and I thought I should introduce myself. My name is Tom and I live in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. I moved to Florida from New Jersey 12 years ago and at this time of year I am really happy about that! My Wife and I have been married for 17 years and we have two wonderful daughters, ages 13 and 11. I've smoked cigars for over 20 years and I enjoy the pleasure and relaxation I get from smoking a great cigar. I'm looking forward to reading all the content on this forum and joining in the discussions. Happy Holidays to everyone!

    Welcome aboard Tom. Pull up a chair and tell us some of your more memorable experiences with cigars over your 20 year career!
    If you could... make it a warm story. Some of us from the great (not so white) North need to hear warm stories about cigars at this time of year.

    Last I checked it did, the ole walk-in humi has been neglected since you were last there but on the bright side, there's still Jello Shot Wednesdays. Oh and almost forgot, they installed a Miller Lite tap in your permanent room!
