While I was not the person to go AWOL on nirab, due to health reasons I did go AWOL on the pass and on alphairon. I have sent a request to join the pass but understand if there is someone out there who would prefer that I stayed on the sidelines. If that is the case I understand, otherwise I m happy to donate my cigars to the eventual winner.


You will please note that I didn't say a thing about it. I figured something might have come up that prevented you from finishing the course. Not a big deal in my book. But you'll never know what they really were unless you smoke them and tell me your guesses! Then I might let you know...if I can find the scrap of paper I had the identities written on!  :biggrin:

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.

So don't be afraid. :biggrin:

I really want to join this one Mike...unfortunately my windows to get a cigar in have closed up recently and I'd hate to hold anything up. I'll get in on the spring edition.

Alright fellas, we've waited long enough, I'll start randomly assigning recipients and post a list here, as well as shoot you all a p.m.

Here is the list. The name on the left sends to the name on the right. I just randomly generated 2 lists using our names (at least versions of them  :biggrin: ) and set them side by side.

Post here when you see it, and understand who you are sending to. That'll save me sending 15 unique PMs.

Those that do not post that they understand, will be PM'd tomorrow. Let's try to get the 5ers out by the end of next week.

NO SMOKING/POSTING REVIEWS UNTIL EVERYONE HAS RECIEVED THIER STICKS!

 Yeah... be prepared to pay more! :biggrin:  

 Although, I have found sending first class to be the cheapest route.....

DO NOT TELL THEM YOU ARE SENDING CIGARS...

Pack in a non-flate rate box.

Claim the value is around $20-25 (def no more)

Write down something specific as the item: Air conditioner part; broadheads for Archery etc...

It is not illegal, but most PO's don't know it. It's only a couple extra bucks, and I've sent (Sporting Goods: Hunting broadheads) to Karl half a dozen times without any issues.

I've sent Biggsy "sports memorabilia" twice now with minimal delays.
