I am still trying to get my mind around the definition of family.  For example, if I take one Man O' War (standard line), do I have to replace it with another Man O' War standard line of a different size/shape (since the Virtue and Ruination use different fillers), or can I replace it with another Nicaraguan filled cigar from another company?

I'll drink and I'll whore and every pleasure realize

Jason the same brand. I have to change my list a little.  When I set up the cigars I was not thinking right. I'll fix the list tomorrow. I want to keep the company the same. Thanks for pointing that out.

A wise geek once told me that moving up from a daily smoke to a weekly or even bi-monthly smoke would be worth it, if I could learn how to appreciate a really really good cigar. -southernrun

Billy, you may want to split those X2s up so that someone can take one without having to take both.

Pass received...will have it back out Monday with any luck, work permitting. And good thing I stayed and waited for the box. Postman just dropped it off at the door and left after knocking. They would of been stuck out in the heat for a long time if I wasn't here. Grrr...I hate the USPS.

Just wanted to throw my Takes and Puts up before I box up the pass and send it on its way. Any problems with this?


Takes:     
Viaje Skull and Bones Short Torpedo (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)
Viaje Skulls and Bones WMD (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)

Puts:     
Ashton VSG Sorcerer (7.0" x 49) ($10.60) (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)
Ashton VSG Torpedo (6.5" x 55) ($12.05) (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)
RoMa Craft Tobac Intemperance BA XXI Intrigue (4 x 46, NIC) ($5.00) (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)
RoMa Craft Tobac Intemperance EC XVIII Charity (4 x 46, NIC) ($5.00) (7/29/2012 4:39:46 PM)

I wanted to add a bit more to the mix which is why I added the set of RoMa cigars to the bunch, along with the Ashton's.

Thanks. I find it a nice easy way to label smokes without a band, dates I bought them, or anything else that might help me track the smoke. :-)
Looks nicer than a sharpie in my opinion.

Buda used to be in the sticks, and has a name that sounds like it is in the sticks, but really, we are only 20 minutes from Austin. So, I will be in the sticks...when they get here! You got em out quick, thanks! :bigthumbs:  :biggrin:

I am finding out, and have seen it stated on this site, that the USPS is the best way to go. I can send a 5er out for about 6 bucks, and get there in two days. My post office is literally 1/2 mile from IH-35, which is the major highway going through Austin. You might try the post office next time and see what happens. Unless it is not convenient for you. Either way, no worries my friend!  :biggrin:  :bigthumbs:

 yup. I have an account with UPS so it is nice to drop and go. but you guys are right. the USPS has gotten a lot better in the last few years. I need to get some of those boxes they are advertising.
