I have a gaddam pile of empty cigar boxes, a big pile. I give away as many as I can, but they still accumulate...

What do you do with empty cigar boxes?

I know, it seems like a waste to throw them away! I break up the cedar ones and use them inside my coolerdor. The others I keep to put stuff in.

I keep all of them! once the cigars are gone you can nothing to show for it but the box and bands! I''m in the process of building shelves out of cigar boxes! trying to do some cool deco stuff with them!

I give them to the kids for storing crayons, pencils, erasers, and other classroom supplies along with small toys.

There was a lovely sotl named Karen on the boards who used to make clocks out of them.

Yeah, I thought about approaching schoolteachers as maybe the kids could use them--then I thought that the anti-tobacco thing might cause their refusal.

I could actually use some wood boxes for storage in my coolerdor if you have any cedar ones that you would be willing to sell or trade

... send a few of the really nice ones to RICKAMAVEN and he can turn them into some really nice wall clocks ...

... and, once converted into a wall-clock ... they make great 'hidden-safes' for handguns and spare magazines ...

- give a Montecristo box a whole new purpose ...

- we had a very nice (antique) full length wall (dressing mirror) turned into a very nice jewelry vault for my wife ... it was placed in between the wall studs and mounted very securely ... all she has to do is 'swing open' the mirror, use her fingerprint for the biometric lock and/or enter a 'pin' security code and it opens right up for her ... keeps all of ther necklaces, etc in very neat order and was actually a very cheap way to secure her jewelry ... lot's of space, very secure ...

... anyway - cigar boxes (desktop humidors) make great hiding places for all sorts of items ... and you can easily install a false bottom ... use a thin sheet of cedar and glue it into place in the bottom and if done right, you won't know the difference and can simply used your hand to break the cedar and retreive the slim-framed pistol you stashed there ...

Rambo, wasn't it you who said Jimmy reminded you of G. Gordon Liddy?

Jimmy, are you the Gman's illegitimate son?

^... only the ignorant are unprepared ...

... if EVERY single woman in America was armed with a compact .380acp with hardball ammo (pass through a body completely - leaving 2 holes instead of one) and every woman that was targeted for rape simply shot her attacker 3-4 times ... guess what ...

- rapes would DECREASE dramatically ...

- if every mugger was shot and killed on the spot ... guess what? Less muggers -

- and each and every rapist and mugger out there contribute to other sorts of crime as well ...

... I'm all for the government "spiking" heroin, meth, crack and a few other junkie drugs ...

... lace a bunch of that crap - put it on the streets ... and in a short period of time ... the crime rates will drop dramatically ...

- 'prolly be best to lace them with some form ricin or radiation where you wouldn't have an immediate death ... need to have something that would take about 2 weeks before symptoms started showing up ... that way, it would be too late for the others and you'd have enough time to get the crank out and distributed on the streets ...

... think of how much money the taxpayers would be paying if (nationwide) we did this...

... no more crack-whores, junkies, drug dealers, etc ... it could completely wipeout the degenerates of society and would save us billions in just the medical aspects alone ... no more free rehab clinics either ...

Both sound like fearsome adversaries except that one is 5'8" and the other one wears elevators. ( ;
