I get home Sunday and will get this thing swinging right after a conjugal visit with the wife.

I think I have two vets and two noobs ready to go.


And then what? She has to return to her prison cell?

Box arrived in the early afternoon and luckily I was still in town so was able to swing by and pick it up.

Will post up contents after some research.

Thanks Greg.

So here goes the noob/vet trade with Palama.

First I will start off by saying my wife was next to me when opening. As soon as I opened the box, she says "EWWW". I look into the box and I start to gag myself. There is a big old bag filled with 5 finger cigar bags stuffed inside of a Greenbay Packers bag. I think I might have to go get a few Chicago bears swag for you now.

Also in there:
Bag of humi-care pillows great for sending out boxes
2 plastic spoons actually have wanted spoons like this for when I have soup with my sushi or Chinese food.
Hawaiian islands hibiscus honey lemon green tea wife is claiming that since she doesn't drink coffee but I think I'm gonna have to have one of these today.
Yan Yan vanilla cracker sticks yum! These won't last long
Yan Yan chocolate cracker sticks do I have to share??
Hawaiian shortbread coconut looking forward to trying
Royal Kona Coffee grounds already had two cups, gonna need to have another and a cigar with it.
Rocky's Kimi Balls
Rocky's cuttlefish
2 packages of strawberry guava pancake mix I know what I am having for breakfast tomorrow
guava flavored drink mix gonna wait till it's a nice warm evening and sit outside with these.
passion orange drink mix again, nice warm evening outside
box of Mauna Loa Mountains chocolate macadamia gonna be gone as soon as I open them.
2 bags of one ton chips gonna open one soon and try these
Cigar-30 xlarge tshirt awesome!
bag of 4 music pogs ? Not sure what these are yet?

And if that was not enough. The cigars

Wait! Wait! I know this one. The pogs are actually milk caps from back when Conan had a mail order music business.

Helluva hit Conan! And while Cheno makes a good point on your NFL support, us Chicaolanders forgive you in light of your other fine qualities

You’re welcome Greg.

Hope everyone enjoys the treats and you find a cigar or two that fits in your wheelhouse.

As far as football goes, as odd as it may sound, our son is a Bears fan. Long story there but suffice to say, poor parenting on my part. Brick wall

Go Pack Go!

I believe Gunney is waiting for a vet (non noob) to adopt him?
I'm next in line I think with Yaro ?
If Gunner can't get picked up there's no hope for me.
if trades are kosher in this current climate I'd be happy to accommodate anyone up for some fun. Is noob on noob violence tolerated here?

So I’m probably gonna jerk some chains here but I am curious, a noob can refuse a vet when the noob signs up asking for a vet? Just seems dumb to me I guess some noobs need to be mollycoddled.

Technically I don't think he exactly volunteered. However he has some practice from his former career at being voluntold, so he's fallen into line nicely

Not sure where the question is at. USNGunner had said he was interested in participating. I don’t think he turned down a vet. So, I matched him up when a vet stepped up. On the other hand, I don’t have a problem if the vets are selective.

Thank you, USNGunner for the nice selection of cigars - most are ones I haven't had but wanted to try. So....who's the noob, and who's the vet here?

Crux Limitada Gunner (nicely done)nh,
Galera No. 1 Maduro nh,
Southern Draw Harpoon lance nh,
Southern Draw Jacob's Ladder lance nh,
Stolen Throne Crook of the Crown nh this vitola

Vince also sent a copy of his US Navy service commemorative coin, marking his retirement after 20 years of distinguished service. Thank you, Sir!

To keep my son supplied for his hobby, there was a ziplock bag full of cigar bands...looking at the bands, Gunner smokes better cigars than I do, so this will be interesting...

I'm gonna have to take some time and dig around my stash so that I can send something adequate in return...

First of all, good job Ronin Gunr!

Secondly, Al, I’mma pretty sure you’ll “adequately” send some “decent” smokes. Whistle
