I haven't posted here or even logged on in over 5 months. It's not because I don't like this wonderful board or because I quit smoking cigars. It's not because I'm dissing all you wonderful people either.

The truth is that one of my truest joys is to bust Asshats...and well, frankly the quality of Asshats has been diminished greatly in the past few months, so I've just stayed away. (Just kidding, asshats never go away, they just pop up their wrinkly heads in a different place and time.)

Actually, I have a 4-year old and nearly 2-year old and I'm over 40, so it isn't exactly as easy as it seemed the first time with my first two kids (now 18 and 20). Also, I'm lazy and my free time has become very precious. When I do have some time to kill, I have to decide between smoking a cigar or playing my Xbox or surfing porn. While this forum rocks, I've had to move reading and posting down the Maslow's Hierarchy a peg or two.

This brings me to the reason for my posting at this time. I'm not posting to get attention or a baby shower or anything like that. Although, I do love me some attention! My real reason is to make a comment about Cigar smoking and those who love it. My love for smoking Cigars has NOT diminished even slightly. My love for herfing has not diminished either. In fact, I'm loving it even more now that the times I get to do it are fewer. As time flys by, I find myself drifting away from reading and posting here on this board, but I haven't really left the board; only temporarily departed from it. I may not post for another 5 months, but rest assured I will be smoking cigars and LOVING IT! That means that when I finally get a lot of free time on my hands (and I mean that figuratively and literally (wink)), I will be back to posting regularly and participating in trading, etc.

This doesn't make me a very good CigarSmokers member, perhaps, as many of you have spent a lot of time making this board the excellent place and I haven't spent that much time. However, the time I posted here regularly, I did so with dedication. And at some time in the future, I will do it again.

In the meantime, let me just say "Hello!" as I do a driveby visit.
