Suggestions please

I don't smoke a lot of cigars. A heavy month for me would be more then one a week. But I do enjoy sitting down with a good friend for and hour and a half or two hours and having a cigar and a drink over a conversation.

Some of the smokes I like are:

Romeo Y Julieta Reserva Real Robusto

The Edge, don't know exactly which one it was but it was Churchill length, must have been at least a 50 ring guage and a light brown paper bag color.

Avo, they were Robusto sized as well.

I have had some Punch and bought a few the other day again, but they are an o.k. smoke in my opinion. I threw four of them in the humidor for the sake of having some o.k. smokes on hand.

I spent a good deal of October in Birmingham, AL and while there went to a couple of cigar shops.

One of them was http://thehumidorroom.com/home/default.asp this place. The young man that was running it was very nice and I went back in the evening to watch some television and have a smoke. When he heard about why I was down there (son's medical) he went in and grabbed a very nice stick and gave it to me. It was twice the cost of what I would normally pay for any smoke ($11).

If anyone in the area can get me his e-mail address I would love to drop him a line. I had to have my dog put down about a month after getting home. (I had had that dog for 12 years, since college, longer then I had had my wife) I went out to my brother's that night and smoked the stick he gave me and would like to thank him.

I also went to another place further south that had about a 2000 sqft humidor. One of the guys there helped me make some selections based on my likes and price range. One of them was a robusto sized milder C.A.O. that I enjoyed very much.

If anyone is still with me and has managed to read all that, I am looking for suggestions on other cigars to buy a couple of and try. I would like to expand my tastes and end up with 4-6 different smokes on hand regularly.
