The bomb was carefully bounced off my porch by postal carrier as he ran back to the truck. It was loud enough to wake me up from my groggy desk nap. It's a big box, no SFR and I remember DG said it was packed to the gills so now I'm worried. Theres a finger size hole in the side and I'm thinking, those bastids took my sticks one by one out of da box.
But no, it's all intact, every nook/cranny stuffed with delightful sticks. This is a nOOb pib but who are we kidding? The list says it all:
DTT Umbagog EZ Cereal Killer-nh but have one I've been saving now I can smoke it! EZ Root Beer Float - had and really liked EZ Sugar Cookie-nh been hoping for one of these KG Cloudhopper- nh looking forward to it L’Atelier Côte d’Or La Tâche-nh sounds pretty frenchy fancy Liberty Desflorado- nh and never heard of- I'm so provincial Nub Connecticut- had and liked Oscar Valladares Ciseron- nh- cool artwork on the band Perdomo Habano BBA Connecticut robusto- nh-maybe a good morning smoke? Stolen Throne Call to Arms Sumatra-nh looks tasty
The reason for the big box?
A custom bluetooth speaker setup installed in a Don Carlos cigar box. Even included the usb wire and instructions (good thing because I can be pretty tech dense) It's a gorgeous box, nice size to set my phone on top to direct stream. Looking forward to setting this up this weekend and spending lots of time on the newly painted deck smoking as fast as I can to avoid having to beg for anymore tupperware.
Daniel, really over the top and so very thankful to count you as one of my "cigar boyfriends" as a wise man here said. I will enjoy each and every cigar you sent -especially since there were no chick magnets xl in there!
It's hard to explain to other people how you can join a cigar discussion board and end up meeting such a large group of generous, thoughtful and caring, no bull**** people. My almost daily comment that "people suck" is going to have to change. I haven't lost hope in humanity after all.
And yes, I've been drinking ;)

Very nice hit, and well deserved!!
I've been drinking too, and have that "happy buzz" going on where it makes me want to cry reading something so heartfelt and nice.
The folks I've met on here are such a wonderful, generous and loving group!! |

Excellent hit, DG! And also, I hold you directly responsible for gift wrapping an opportunity for a possibly vengeful Carolinian |

Point of parliamentary order. Dan'l, purty sure this was your non elite list pickup. Evaluate your level of absurdity from there
Regardless, great walloping Z! |
12963. Author: CarsonTheCat | Date: Sat, 10/17/2020, 6:50PM EST | |
Nice friggen "n00b" hit! |
12964. Author: Dg west deptford | Date: Sat, 10/17/2020, 7:51PM EST | |
Ahh, can't blame the blunder on bourbon this time. Who can keep up with all these gifted bombs from you gentlemen? That does explain the non noobieness of Z's selection but ... 2nd point of parliamentary order- The selection does seem awfully fussy, vintage & illegal in the U.S. to be referred to as non-elitist. But yes an apology and correction is in order...
My bad. ^Not a noob hit. Rather it was a non elite list pick up as graciously pointed out by Dan'l the man'l .
Ok I blame the bourbon after all. Because I forgot to list the Illusione Haute 10 which was indeed a listed want that I am so looking forward to!
Not only tardy but re-tardy. Fail!
Thanks again Jamie!!!
