Welcome to the board, both of you. Probably.

Thank you for the welcome. However, please don't concern yourself with my actions. I will read when I please and post when I please. I don't intend to become an expert overnight, nor do I ever. I simply enjoy learning about cigars and shooting the breeze with others alike.. and doing so on my own time. I think an excellent rule of thumb for senior members who let their post count get to their heads is that it is just a number and any member, regardless of his or her post count should be treated equally. I'm simply welcoming another new member like me, which I see nothing wrong with. Anyways, this thread is about welcoming gifters and not me, so let us not get off topic.
