Another hello from Oregon - A new-old member.

Hello, BOTL's - I've been lurking this forum for a while (a year maybe, on and off) and passing it on to people as a good resource, finally getting around to (*re)registering now that I have stable computer access. I'm a generic 20 something cigar smoker in the Portland area, a college student (music production/marketing dual major, prelaw minor), entrepreneur, record label owner, and all around racontuer. I also work at the only B&M that really matters here in Portland, and hope to make a lifetime career out of cigars, hopefully in the marketing area.

Been an avid smoker for several years, but I'm always learning more - the transition to selling from buying cigars has been interesting. I'd love to be able to use CS as a resource to more informally speak and network with the regulars of the store, and find out what they like and dislike; I wouldn't mind finding out what PR issues I can possibly help address on that level either, within the length of my cable as far as discretion and job security are concerned ..

Anyway, if you are into jazz, a brother of AF&AM/F&AM, history, political science, or a cigar smoker - I think we'll get along fine. I'm not much of a speaker, but I love to listen and I'll throw in my when it isn't in anyone's way.

- Chad

*had and briefly used an account here about a year and a half back, but lost the username/password in a freak memory (mine, not my computers) accident.

Edit - I should amend, with a list of my favorite cigars I suppose, it may give you a sense of my character, or may just serve me in an exhibitionist matter.

1. Partagas Series P # 2
2. Tatuaje Havana VI series
3. Cabaiguan series
4. Avo Uvezian legacy belicoso and lonsdales
5. Partagas Black Label Maximo
6. Partagas Series D # 4
7. Ashton VSG belicosos
8. Davidoff Millennium Blend lonsdales
9. Fonseca Cubano Limitada belicosos (designated yardgar of my top ten)
10. A dead threeway tie between AVO intermezzos, Romeo Y Julietta Habano Reserve pyramides, and bolivar (domestic) lonsdales.

Cold. I'd rather be down in your area, I have smoked my best cigars in cathedral city at the desert princess - and at Mel's. How is it down there - can you see the smoke? Terrible what's going on right now near you.

Re: Another hello from Oregon - A new-old member.

It must be winter, all the Oregonians are coming out of the woodwork. Time for indoor activities!

Welcome to ClubStogie, Chad. So you work for the only B&M that matters? Hrmmm... if you make it to the herf that's coming up, we should talk.

Welcome (back) to the Jungle Chad. Always good to see a BOTL from my old stomping grounds joining the group.

It's more vice versa for me, I rather be up there.
I think I might get a cabin home up in Oregon later on in life.
So you've been down here, thats cool man its still in the
high 80s so im not to happy with that, but it will get better.
and as far as the smoke, last Saturday I took picture of it slowly
coming over mountains, and I took a other picture the other day.
so its looking a lot better out here. I live in La Quinta, these were taken outside my house.
