Adopt Army Newbee headed to Baghdad

[Army Tommy]

I put in my BIO that I am 42 and in the Army for 18 years. I did not Say that I am 18. I have been on many extended trips away from my family. I wouldn't have ever thought of asking anyone to send anything to where ever. I will be deploying in late January and thought that I might talk back and forth with folks until then. I do not know if any of you have been away for long periods of time but you try to figure out mile markers to pass your tours. I was hoping that having cigars sent to me in Iraq and then having dialog about the cigar, it would break up the monotony. I agree with the post that said anyone pretending to be separated from their family for a year is the lowest of lows. I was sent a post from Drew and I know that I addressed this incorrectly. Are their second chances or has my sophomoric introduction ended it for me?

Wow..I am not sure who Tony Dogs is, but I hope that he/she writes well. I am from Oklahoma, I joined the Army in 1988. I came in late in Army years, I was 24. I had tried the college thing, Oklahoma State, Go Pokes! After failing there miserably, my major was Rugby, I joined the Army. I have been to Germany three times to Korea once and spent time in Alabama. I was without my wife in Germany for a good portion of one tour and was without my wife and two daughters while in Korea, that was my latest tour. I returned in May 04. While in Germany I gave up smoking cigarettes. I smoked an occasional cigar from a shop in the local village. While in Korea, I meant a guy from my running club. It was a Hash club (not the drug hash); it is a drinking club with a running problem. He is an employee with the US embassy in South Korea. His drinking name is "Jolly Green Knob". Long story short. He was very educated in the cigar world and on every Saturday after our runs, he would introduce me to different cigars and a sip on Cognac. I do not miss being away from my family, but I do miss those Saturdays with Jolly and his wonderful cigars. That's a little about me. I hope that it quells any thought of me being some sort of fraud.

Nice intro Tommy. You'll have to excuse us around here, ya see, one thing about this place is it comes up pretty quick in google searches for cigar sites and we get an unbelieveable amount of scammers, thieves, asshats, etc., that join here and think we're all a buncha fools. As a result, some of the guys can be a little "rough" at first but we've got a pretty good group of people here.

Stick around and post in some threads and see if you like the place. It's all what you make of it.

Thanks Cat. I have been reading the threads and enjoy the banter. I do hope that I fit in but I do understand that is not my call.

Oh, you want some good laughs? You GOTTA look at Scotty's (SFG75) threads!

Here's what you want to do......Search for all post by:

SFG75
TBSCigars
RealPurobrat (oh what the hell, look at PuroBrat's too )
CoronaGigante
FPDoc77

In particular, the threads that have their MOST RECENT posts.
Since SFG75, TBSCigars and FPDoc77 have been banned, you won't find them in the regular membership list, you have to find them in the "FORUM LEADERS" section at the bottom of the main page, that's where the banned folks end up.

Now THAT'S entertainment.

What you have been told is true, we get a lot of shits here, but at the same time, if you're for real then you should be all set.

Sarge, I have gone back through some threads yesterday and this morning and I have investegated this Tony Dogs character. I asure you that I am not him. For one thing, I will never personally attack anyone even if I am attacked. I will continue to read and I will try to add meaningful input when I can; I am enjoying the threads and do not want to come across as an idiot.
