All cigars are to be NC (Non Cuban) cigars you normally smoke. This is not a dog rocket box pass (1876, fighting **** etc.) but a pass of everyday smokes. Everyones taste and budget are different so this pass may help the members experience different smoking views. This box pass is NOT to try and out do the last person. Just be honest and include some smokes you enjoy and may find others may enjoy.

Other than that, it's a pretty standard box pass;

-The box pass will start out with 33 cigars.

-Each person can take a maximum of 5 sticks replacing them with the same number taken.

-You can also add more cigars than you take if are so inclined to do so.

-Please post your takes and puts here so that the list can be kept updated.

-Place all naked cigars individually into a small ziplock bag or a clean, recycled cello sleve or somehow protect them in some fasion.

-INFUSED CIGARS: Must be individually bagged (even if in cello) and then stored in a seperate ziplock bag from the non-infused cigars.

-Please check and recharge the water pillows if necessary. Additional ziplock bags and water pillows are included.

TROOP BAG:

Mandoman sugguested a "Troop Bag" and I'm all for it, so in addition to the regular "box pass" contents, there will be a troop bag (labled as such) that will be for donations to this cause.

If you so choose, you may donate as many or as little cigars to the troop bag as you wish. Your participation in the box pass is in no way contingent on a donation. This is a totally voulantary addition to the pass.

Cigars donated to the troop bag must be done in addition to any takes/puts from the regular pass items. ie: you may not take 5 cigars from the pass and return 4 plus one to the troop bag.

I have an email off to Todd regarding trading cigars in the troop bag - so, for the moment, until I hear back from him, let's assume that Troop bag cigars ARE NOT open to box pass trading.

At the end of the box pass, all cigars in the troop bag will be sent in all participants names to an address of a unit serving in Iraq or 'stan as provided by docrks.

TG, Thanks for the placement.

Pat

if it is alright with you guys I might try to get on the box pass when it gets to loco, I see him on almost a daily basis.

^^^

That's fine by me.

Chazbo ships the box to loco, you and loco can both do your picks and puts at the same time and one of you ships the box to dunkaroos.

Welcome aboard. When you get a chance, please shoot me an email with your name & address for the file. TIA.

Hey TG,

I don't have any cello sleeves at all,can I use one of the baggies that I get on a regular basis from ci to put mine in for the pass?

gary

That'll probably be ok. I put a bunch of ziplock "snack baggies" (the half height size) in there also - feel free to use them as needed. A few layers of Saran wrap works too.

The big problem with shipping naked cigars, and unfortunately, I have opened boxes that people have sent me and discovered this has happened to the cigars in transit, is that when you ship a naked cigar and a cello'd cigar together that if the cigars start rubbing against each other, the edges of the cello have a tendancy to shred the wrapper on the naked cigar. Two naked wrappers slamming into each other in transit (man, that sounds wierd) can also cause a lot of damage.

I've seen it bad enough where the edge of of the cello at the head of a pirimade cigar tore a hole/slice almost two inches long through the wrapper, band, binder and part of the filler on the two naked smokes it was packed between (and it was a shame too, since both of the naked smokes were out of production cigars).

Thunder, will be gone Aug.3-6. Let me know if this is problem. You can move me dowm list if needed...Bill

Sepo,

billstep,

I think the box might just land the day of your return - let's see when it gets to Sepo.

Could always have Sepo ship to the rickowe and move you out to the end of the pass, between pliny and pjge.

Like I said, lets see when it lands in Colorado.

geez.. how did i go from virtual to friggen first!!!!

wow.. i better check the damn mail.

wow.. i better check the damn mail.

Any chance of putting pliny behind me.. i got not problem meeting him to transfer!!!!

Nah, just do your takes and puts and ship it to either billstep or rickowe depending on the date (see post #12).

You'll probably ship to rickowe and then billstep will get the box towards the tail end of the pass.

sepo,

Label/Receipt Number: 0103 8555 7491 0204 7986

Status: Arrival at Unit

Please do & post your takes/puts as outlined in post #1 and then ship the box to rickowe so that we avoid the chance of the box sitting in billstep's mailbox for four days.

Shipping order has been adjusted due to billstep's vacation.
