Cool Greetings from Tampa!
Hey everyone! My name is Jeff. I've been reading posts for a couple months now, figured it's time that I got in the game! I've lived in Tampa, FL for the past 14 years, I am currently employed by my church, doing religious education and youth ministry. It's extremely regarding and exhausting, making the little time I have to relax and smoke even more enjoyable.

My history with cigars is quite young, I only enjoyed my first this past summer. I've been reading posts out here on almost a daily basis. I haven't taken the plunge into buying a humidor yet. So far I have been purchasing singles from two local B&Ms and smoking them within a day or two of purchase. Of everything I have tried, I have found that I have really enjoyed a Zino Classic No. 6 and the NUb Habano is quickly becoming a go-to stick for me.

I's like to take a minute to thank everyone who participates in these forums. There is a wealth of knowledge here and it has made the beginnings of my hobby awesome. Thanks!

Bill, Patrick, Squid, thanks for the warm welcome. Nice to meet you guys.

Believe it or not, I have not made it into Ybor since I started enjoying cigars. From what I've heard of the cigar scene in Ybor, it seems almost a crime. Used to go a lot a few years ago, but that had nothing to do with cigars.

Bill, I noticed that you are also a new member, welcome!

Hey Chris! I noticed you're affiliated with Thompson Cigar. I purchased my first sampler (first cigars period) from ya'll. Thanks for helping to get me started!

What I meant was it seems criminal thaqt I have not gone yet. From what I've heard the cigar scene in Ybor is iconic. The fact that I live so close leaves no excuse for me not to have gone.
