There is a card in the mail today indicating I have a box available  for pick up at the post office. My sweet wife needed to check her PO Box and offered to pick it up for me!

Moments away........ahhh the anxiety, sweet sweet anxiety!!! :dancing:

The plot thickens................the mail lady has not got back to the PO with box yet (yikes) my sweet wife has agreed to wait twenty minutes for her to return. If she doesnt make it back by then (high intensity orchestra blast) I'll have to wait until tomorow (The Price is Right "You Lose" music).

Paul, ever thot of emotiwaves?

Twenty years ago we had Steve Jobs, Johnny Cash and Bob Hope.  Now we have no jobs, no cash and no hope. Please don't let Kevin Bacon die!

No word yet. This is LIVE real time cigar action happening now.

I have a postal worker willing to give a statement if his/her id can be kept secret. The statement is as follows: "Using a card for over sized boxes is standard procedure."

There you have it, Standard Procedure.

More later.................

Awesome.  Now the fun begins.  In order to have the system award the points to everyone, you just need to flip the "Completed" flag to yes.

Some closing thots:

The Aurora #4 wrapper was in rough shape - I had peanut cigar glue for repairs!

The Graycliff Prof. made it back safely - I am surprised someone didn't snag it and it was naked but not badly damaged by the long ride, small split at the foot glued right up.

Note: I think the wrapper issues on some of the smokes are related to a rapid increase in RH. Going from a stabilized humidor to a RH rich air tight box that is made of no absorbant material. Someone added paper towels along way - I recommend this practice for future passes.

Only four of the original 22 smokes made it back to me - this will result in much smoking pleasure for me and many reviews for our dtabase.

22 smokes in the pass 35 smokes out - 13 smoke increase - you guys are great! Thanks again.

No problemo! The unpacking and sorting was a blast! Just imaging which one to smoke next is a happy thot.
