I'd love to participate in this. With the wife in school, new sticks are not gonna be bought anytime soon! I've done a few so far, so if I get bumped aside, that is fine by me.

Since Brian is the person who hooked up the critique and will be shipping the cigars, choosing volunteers will be up to him.  With that being said, please post if you are interested in either thread so Brian has a pool of applicants. :biggrin:

Dont think youre going to be short on volunteers but if you are in need I am willing. I volunteered in the other thread as well.
I am not concerned about what you think as I can tell you don't do it often.

I used to be a people person, but then people ruined that for me.

Thanks guys for volunteering.  As stated, I will be sending out the coffins which include both cigars so you will be doing this one and the First two weeks of August.  If I didnt pick you, its nothing personal so please don't be offended.  I won't get these out until maybe next week, so if you choose you don't want to, then please let me know.
So we have

For those of you who have them, I entered them in the database and Jackal got them quickly added so you can add to your VH as well.  They look good, can't wait but I will.
