RonLin Posted November 25, 2013 Posted November 25, 2013 Maybe it´s about time to drop in an say hello to everyone at this great forum. I´ve made some buys from the *****int with great success and I thought I´d give this forum some time. Seems to be a lot of nice and fun people hanging around here! My name is Ronnie, a middle aged, self employed man from a small town in the middle of Sweden. Quite new to the joys of a good cigar - it all started when I bought a humidor starter pack from a local web-site for my uncles 65th birthday, and got one for myself at the same time. This was about 2 years ago, and since then, I´ve sampled some good and some not so good cigars. I still have to call myself a newbie, though. The favourites have become the Cohibas. But I smoke maybe 2-4 cigars per month so the price issue isn´t a big deal. The best one so far was a Siglo VI that had been sitting in some guys humidor for a couple of years (bought it from the trade-section in a Swedish forum). Still have 4 to go waiting for the right time... Apart from the above I like good food and drink. I guess I could call myself a pretty decent cook. I do most of the cooking for the wife and my two kids. I don´t even mind the day to day cooking (as long as I get out of doing the dishes...), but off course it´s more fun to do the fancy stuff... I love the Italian cuisine and make a mean Carbonara for instance. Traveling is also nice. I only wish I could visit Italy more often. I try to go at least once a year for the beautiful country (especially the northern parts) and the good food and wine. A dream would be to move there in older days. I´d also like to go back to NYC sometimes. Me and my wife was there last fall for a great weekend. I´d love to go back and get to know some of the neighborhoods a little bit better now when I´ve crossed of the "have to see"-stuff. I´m also the proud owner of a 1969 Mustang Mach 1 which is my pride and joy during the summer season. Unfortunatly it´s not really running at the moment. Had some troubles with the engine this season, but I think the problem is solved for next season. 400 horsepower on the back wheels doesn´t make it the perfect car for the Swedish winter, so I have to wait until spring to try it out... I play some guitar and like my rock old school as well. The best stuff (as with the cars) was made in the 60s and the 70s if you ask me! The Stones, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, AC/DC are a coupe of favourits to mention a few. Among the more recent bads I like a lot of the 90s stuff - Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains. And some Swedish acts like the retro rockers Soundtrack of our Lives and the great Hellacopters. Well, that´s it for now! See 'ya!
