I've got a great cigar collection - it's actually not a collection, because that would imply I wasn't going to smoke every last one of 'em.

Hey! How come Habana is written on here with a Sharpie ?!?

A day without whiskey is like . . . just kidding, I have no idea!

 I haven't

I talked with Nate on Friday about this, and he was checking with Tim.  I do know that Tim just got these in and put them up for sale this weekend, so maybe he had to wait for them to come in.

NO WAY are we making the April 10 deadline.  We need to receive it first, and give it at least a few days to rest.  ;-)

Sounds probable! The brother does have a business to run so you can't fault him for having to square the site away first. I was just making sure I didn't miss a box or something and with today being the 7th even if we DO get it tomorrow afternoon that gives us LESS than 48hrs from mailbox to review being due. Didn't want to sound like the ungrateful b@stard since you NEVER complain about a free smoke :biggrin:

Good to hear these are arriving.

If we set the deadline for 13th/14th, will that give everyone time to get their review submitted?

I think the 14th is pretty reasonable. That way they can sit for a few days, smoke em and worse case that gives us the weekend to get the write up all done.

Mine arrived today too - Thanks, Tim!

I don't see any issue getting the review done by EOD Sunday the 14th.

Ready to submit my review - need a little direction on how to find the template.

I'm on an iPhone... but the link is in a few of the last review threads I think.
