Rebecca is putting some in too, so ours will ship on Saturday.

I'll do what I will and I'll drink what I please
I'll smoke what I like 'till I cough and I wheeze
I'll drink and I'll whore and every pleasure realize
For this time tomorrow I may die

My fellow Cigar Geeks...y'all are so freaking awesome!! Here are the donations to date. Very impressive, especially considering that this was a spur of the moment, lets show some CG love, to an incredible human being kind of bomb! I plan on trying to get these to Mr. Overton this Saturday, but if more come in after that, I will happily drive em over to him. Man, I just love this site!!!!  :biggrin:  :angel:  :bigthumbs:

Just yell from the side walk. I come in peace and have good cigars you should be OK.
You should hurry up and acquire the cigar habit. It's one of the major happiness's. And so much more lasting than love, so much less costly in emotional wear and tear.
Aldous Huxley

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace.

I did not get to deliver them last Saturday, but should be able to this weekend. I also got another donation from Longhorn, and will post a pic of those tonight. I added 5 more sticks to the cause in ebernabe's name as well.  :biggrin:

FYI...if anyone would like to donate, I can add a 5pk in your name from my stash, and you can send a 5pk to me whenever you get around to it. I've got plenty to share, and won't run out anytime soon, so whenever really does mean whenever!!  :biggrin:  :angel:

Thanks for the offer.  Put in 5 for me Brian and I'll get some off to you hopefully this weekend.  I know that I'm not as active as I used to be on this great site but the spirit of generosity hasn't diminished a bit.

Clay and Mark, I've got you down for a 5er each. I am attempting to deliver this Saturday around noon. If that fails, I am going back on Sunday, mid morning. I am hoping and praying this goes down on Saturday, and that I can snap a pic or two with Mr. Overton. I am really excited about this!  :biggrin:  :angel:  :bigthumbs:

I will Kerry! I am hoping for a pic or two, but I will not be pushy in any way. If it takes me however many attempts to get these to him, y'all can bet on one thing...Mr. Overton will get his cigars!  :biggrin:  :bigthumbs:

I wish I had a CG hat to give him! That would have been super cool!

Here are Longhorn's donations, and the sticks I pulled for Clay, Mark and Gary. I plan on adding some more tonight. Gives me a good reason to rotate a couple of my humidors.  :biggrin:  :angel:

Brian,

Please put in a 5'er for me, I'll send you some sticks next week if I'm not on jury duty.  This is awesome! :dancing:
