Intro V2.0

[redneck_toy]

I guess since everyone is making a better intro thread, I'll jump on the bandwagon.
My name is Robert. I'm 43 yo, married 20 years, father of two. I work in the "evil oil industry", in an oil refinery, producing gasoline, diesel, turbine(jet) fuel, propane,butane,etc. I've been on the job for 8 years. I've been smoking cigars for about 7 months, it's my obsession,really. My hobbies include golf, shooting,and some reloading. If bitching about the current government is considered a hobby, chalk that one up,too. I'm pretty conservative, consider myself a tea party member. I don't think we need subsidized healthcare, Obama phones, and I damn sure don't need the government telling me which light bulb I should buy.
My music likes are really all over the place. I like old country, Hank (jr and sr), Merle Haggard, Patsy Cline,etc. I lean more towards heavy rock ie,
Godsmack, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd,Rush, Avenged Sevenfold, KoRn,etc. most of the time. I have a knack for remembering just about every joke I've ever heard.
I guess that's a better intro than what I had initially. I really enjoy the site. Everyone has been real nice so far

Thanks. Fuente has to be overall my favorite line. Especially the Hemingway's. I like full flavored maduros a lot. Loved the few Tatuaje's I've smoked. Liked the Flor De Las Antillas I smoked last week real well

Not sure what decisions your referring to, but I think most of us are capable of choosing what's best for our own lives. No one knows your situation better than you.

It's come up here to 1.99/gallon. But that's American, not sure of the exchange rate to the loony or toony or whatever. Lol
It was down to $1.67 a month and a half ago, though

Welcome brother.

Thanks. Global warming reminds me of a T-shirt I saw recently. It said " Al Gore didn't invent the Internet, but he did make up global warning" lol I love it

Fairly certain that comment is tongue-in-cheek.

If the government doesn't tell me which light bulb to buy, how will I know which one to spend my food stamps on? Welcome from Indiana.
