So when I was getting ready to mail the super secret stealth bomb run on stinger payload, I remembered Delta's request for cigar bands. Since I was going to the post office anyway, I took the pitiful amount that I had saved up, tossed them in a bag, a danged little ole sandwich bag, and mailed them at the same time. Piece of cake.
When I say pitiful amount, remember, I'm the noob. I haven't been at this as long. And I didn't even save the things for the first month or two when I got back into cigars. Which brings us to today.
I pick the mail up before I came into work, open the box with a "What the hell?" Why is there is a SFR lurking in there? Must be the wife's.
I pull it out, check the return address and low and behold, it's from Mr. Innocent, Mr, I did nothing to deserve this hit!, Mr. "Get off my Lawn" himself.
Yep. Al. My first thought is "Why is Al sending my wife stuff?" But no, it's for me.
I take it in the house muttering and my wife asks 'What's this" as she picks it up to look. I tell "It's a damn bomb!" and she drops it. (She's lived with me too long to take chances). So I back filled her on the story.
In said unsolicited bomb is A selection of some very nice grass fed beef sticks, and a bag containing:
A Don Douglas Bucanero Cigars (This beauty has some serious humi time on it!)
Sombremesa Cervantes Fino
Joya de Nicaragua Cuatro Cinco Resera Especial Toro
Ashton VSG
Arturo Fuente Rosada Gran Reserva Magnum R44( I think?)

Those are all never hads, and some gorgeous smokes.
Al, I suddenly find myself leaning toward jespears version of events now.
Seriously though, thank you very much. You have to work on your appropriate meter though, this was way overkill.
