    Hi all!  I'm new here but not new!  I mean that when I was born the Dead Sea was still Sick! But I love my cigars and smoke at least one a day.  I think that this forum is great and I am glad that I found it!

    Hey Gents... My name is Danny.  I'm 46 and I live in Houston, TX. I'm real new to the cigar world and learning something new everyday. Ever since I was a kid I loved the smell of a cigar. I would follow the old guys smoking and shopping in K-mart.  
    I have been smoking for about 8 months, but only one offs from a b&m in my area.  Usually smoked when I played golf, which was about once a month.  I have researched and researched, watched reviews and the list to learn continues to grow. I just bought a 120 count cigar humidor and BOY what fun. What did I learn from that?  You can over saturate your humidor, even when you think you're being conservative. No worries now, patience won and the 70/70 was finally accomplished! It took about 5-6 days, but worth it when I placed those stoggies in their rightful place. Which is how I found this sight. Reading humidor forums helped me correct my humidor. 
    Im glad to be a part of the forum. Looking forward to learning from the VETS. 

    I was told to ask for a sponsor to trade with. 
    Welcome to the forum. I'm pretty new myself, but there is a lot of good info on here and some good folks to share the passion with

    Hi, I'm John from Va. I'm a long time pipe smoker as well as a recent cigar smoker. I've been smoking cigars more lately however. I've picked up some samplers and a few boxes lately, but I'm still learning about cigars. I hope to meet the folks here and pick up some tips.
