Kechke Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 Hi folks, i got a heads up about this forum from a member on Cigar Aficianado. I smoked my first CC around 1958-9 and been into cigars off and on till about 15 years ago. At that time on my first trip to Cuba i got hooked, now they are mainly the only cigars i smoke. Being from Canada , where the prices are astronomical, my purchases mostly happen when i vacation in Cuba. My other hobbies are classic Mustangs and digital photography. I look forward to posting here and indulge in some banter with the members. I have included a couple of pics, one is of myself with an LCDT store manager in Holguin Cuba and the other of my storage unit which is a 100 bottle wine cooler. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v213/kechke/PICT0034.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v213/kechke/chigo004.jpg

gehrig24 Posted October 26, 2007 Posted October 26, 2007 Greetings and Welcome. Just read your bit about the kidney stones, sorry to hear about that. Glad you found us and enjoy. »
Claudius Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Hello and welcome. :-) I didnt see anything about kidney stones but have a friend who had one removed by ultrasound. He said he had to drink lots and pee in a coffee filter to make sure it got all out. Another guy I know had to have it surgically removed as it was too big for ultrasound. I hope you're fine! Take care, and remember: an Upmann a day keeps the doctor away!
marco polo Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Welcome! Nice collection ! Just wondering how you keep your unit humidified? :-)
Kechke Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 » Welcome! Nice collection ! Just wondering how you keep your unit » » humidified? :-) I used to use Climaxx beads but for the past year it's kitty litter beads in this "Chigo" wine cooler. They keep the 100 bottle unit at a plus or minus 2 points around 65% R/H. The link below is a picture of the tray of about two pounds of the cat beads. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v213/kechke/chigo2004.jpg

It's getting a bit tireing reading on how much better the NC's are on some of the other boards.
