Even from Germany the new members flock

Since I discovered this forum by chance a few weeks ago I find myself coming back and spending quite a bit of time reading reviews and discussions about cigar stuff which is discussed here more competently than anywhere else I know of. Actually this behavior didn't go unnoticed and my girlfriend complained the other day: "You wanna go out tonight or stay at home and watch pictures of half-smoked cigars on the internet again?"... Well, I guess it's time to at least register, introduce myself and say hi to all the other "friends of Habanos" that are interested in reviews, wrapper experiments, vintage comparisons, aging theories, speculations about blend mechanics etc. and that have created such a wealth of information here. I'm glad that I found it and look forward to be a part of it in the future

"You wanna go out tonight or stay at home and watch pictures of half-smoked cigars on the internet again?"

Well, that pretty much sums it up. Good to have you join the rest of us single, divorced, and maritally dysfunctional guys.

Hopefully you have seen more than just the barracks while being there, but yes I can confirm that there are some really ugly and boring places in Germany.

I'm from the southern part (Baden-Württemberg) near the border to France. 'Heidelberg' usually gives people a vague idea, so I often say I'm from there when travellig abroad, although I actually live about 60 km away from it.

Thanks for the warning, shrink ;-) and everybody else for your warm welcome.

:rotfl:

Reminds me of someone very dear to me, and of something I reposted to another board that I'll have to post here on a new thread.

Welcome kirill! Nice to have you aboard.

Yes, I saw MUCH more of Germany than that. One of my hobbies at the time was hitting all the vineyards on the Nahe. I love German Rieslings, and used to buy them by the crate (when in Germany). Too hard to find any but the most overpriced of bottles here in the states.

It's really, really a small world, my mother was born in Bad Wimpfen which is just the neighbouring village to Bad Rappenau.

Welcome to the cigar board with "soul!"

Glad you made it.

And yes, I get in trouble from time to time looking at "cigar porn" online too.... It is all part of the lifestyle, I, (and I am guessing many readers here,) live.

I love Germany. I flew in with my wife for our honeymoon, which went onto Switzerland and France. I have only been around Sindelfigen , the black forest, and then on to Basel, Switzerland, but we were driving ourselves around and had a great time!

Cheers,

DC
