Greetings from mid-MO
I'd like to introduce myself to everyone. My name is Ed "Smokey" Strodtman and I live in central MO on a farm about 6 miles SE of the tiny town (population 220) of Gilliam, MO.
My wife and I own some crop land here that we rent out. We are both retired, although we do have a small home based business on the side to bring in a few extra bucks.
Besides pipe smoking, my other interests are motorcycling, bicycling, reading, watching sports on TV, and pets (we have two dogs and one cat). My cycle and bike riding have been severely curtailed by serious back problems in the last few years.
I've been a pipe smoker for 38 years and enjoy participating in these forums and doing tobacco reviews. My tastes are eclectic: my no. 1 type of smokes are burley blends, but I also enjoy English, Balkan, VA, VA/Per, and the occasional aromatic. I'm still learning things about this wonderful hobby and probably will continue to do so until I'm 6X6.
I would welcome any correspondence with other members, I'm a pretty gregarious fellow. Thanks for taking the time to read this and for having me here.
Smokey

Hello Smokey, good to have you here. You may be relieved to note that I live no where near Missouri.

Hey Smokey,
Greetings from another fellow Missourian (although I'm stuck in Cali for about another year )
I look forward to your posts and any wisdom that you have to share.
Motorcycle's huh?? Right now I am riding an 05 Honda VTX 1800, what's your scooter of choice??
Welcome aboard,
Tom
Tom, I'm riding a 1999 Kawasaki 1500cc Vulcan Drifter (the one that looks like an old Indian Chief). I've ridden Kawasakis for quite a few years now and used to work for a dealer. Thanks for the welcome!
