Walked out to the mailbox today and noticed it was leaning one direction; figured the postal guy hit it with his truck. Upon checking my box I see a key in it. This means there is a package for me in one of the larger bins...I opened the one the key fit and there it was--A MOAB from penguin13 (Kevin). Getting a neighbor to help me carry it to the porch I said thank you and told him to get lost I could handle it from there. Took it downstairs into the basement and proceded to operate on one of the bulging taped seams...the aroma hit me square in the face like only a MOAB can. A MOAB full of so many sticks the aroma practically filled the entire basement and I have a large basement. Top notch sticks to the tune of Camacho Liberty 2003 coffin; Opus Double Corona and many many more. Many of which I've been wanting to try. I'm talking a $hitload of sticks that easily qualifies as a MOAB in my book.
Kevin I'm humbled and floored by your generosity and this is not the first time I've had deals with Kevin. He is tops in my book and you can't help but stand there with your bottom chin touching your shoes as you pick through the package.

Well,...being me I could not let this stop there. I put together a semi-MOAB killer for the good penguin. Just a few dog rockets I like to smoke now and again. I don't bomb just anyone and I don't always return fire. Kevin's a class act and deserves getting JD1's MOAB Neutralizer.........be afraid penguin...BWWWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA...be vewy afraid!!!!

Your most welcome! Does that Humi Pouch look Familiar? It's yours!! Thats the one you sent me when we traded for the SAK. You were suppose to just send me the SAK but instead you sent me the SAK and filled that Humi pouch with some quality smokes. That was just a thank you bomb for all the magnificent trades that we have done in the past. I know you said you wanted to try the Dunhill Signed range but couldn't bring yourself to buy one, well, I hope you enjoy it :) Thanks again for all the wonderful trades and you never know when return fire might happen (some shrapnel might even land in Jersey :)

JD1,

I met Penguin last week at the Camacho tasting. I talked to him a couple of times this week and was privy to what was going on. I was in awe when he told me what was included in the bomb. Yes, it was one hell of a package.

Way to go Penguin.........

I'm incredibly humbled. And it never ceases to amaze me as to the generosity and sincerity displayed by so many on this board and by a few that always go way beyond what is normal trade practices. I'm honored and humbled to be a part of that brotherhood and clearly put Kevin the good penguin in that latter list.

the penguin MOAB Neutralizer is coming to your neighborhood Kevin...tell the kids not to be afraid; bring a tissue to the tearing eyes of their Mothers...then get your SAK and torch ready...pour your favorite libation...and open with extreme caution...

My wife just called and said the mailman was at the house. She asked me if I was expecting a package from "Jerry" I told her I was but you beter get the bomb squad before you open it. She brought the "box" upstairs to difuse it. She piled up all the furniture around her and got out the longest tongs she could find. Fom across the room, she opened the box. A load BOOM escaped from the box that was heard by surounding cities. The smell of choice tobacco filled the room. She said it was like walking in the Tinder box (a tobacco shop I use to go to) Picking herself up, she then went through the contents over the phone with me. First she asked if there was something wrong with my head? I told her of course. Then she asked if there was something wrong with Jerry's head? She started reading the bands to me and I couldn't believe my ears. I'm still in awe of the smokes you sent and I can't wait to see them/taste them in person. I can still hear her voice "whats the Fuente wrapped in cedar with the black band that says 858?" I'll be sending you an email tonight because she said there a few in there without bands. Once again, I've been outdone by another Brother of the Leaf :) Thank you buddy, you've just made my day!
