diverbelow72 has been tremendous these past couple of years passing on all my hits and trades.

and today i got a box, which was almost too big for my old delivery guy.

got my palio from DED's "Tiger" contest. i cannot wait to use it.

got my split of flying pigs...looks like a few nice extras, as well.

kipp beat the crap out of me. sent my box of T110's, along with an opus X, anejo, tat black tubo, and 2 new cigars for me--VSG tubo eclipse...which will not last the weekend. and a torano exodus 50 years.

and he added 4 skor bars!!!!!!!! and a cool watch that i have been wearing all day...a photo to follow.

Jules and the MMM (Michiganders) beat me down! i like cigar and alcohol, but they are eventually gone, so i love none disposable things--i got a cool moose manor hat, 2 killer glencairn whiskey glasses, and these awesome whiskey stones (like ice). last night, i kid you not, i was watching columbo and the killer was pouring glasses of whiskey loaded with ice, and i said out loud, yeah, i want my whiskey cold, but do i want it watery? well, i got a bottle of the best whiskey of 2009 from jules.

cigars from jules include cubao, CAO traviata, 100 anos, Don Carlos 2006 edicion de aniversario!, matasa anni, anejo, TB, 601s, CAO's galore, JOHN HAY anni, cain, padilla miami, 1492, MY 1922, perdomos (incl the patriarch), and a cigar that looks alot like hemi sig...

the MMM crew crushed me...sent like over 50 cigars. including punch, RP renaissance, CAO blacks, la aroma de cuba, ERDM, graycliff DE, MB3, RP edge, gurkhas!, men of war (plural since there are more than 1 man of wars), pepin black, camacho select, oliva, quintero, ITC 10th anni, mayorga and lempita fuerte (new for me), LFD, anejo, many CAO's, diablo, angel 100s, fonesca cosacos habanos (5), don kiki harvest of 2000 (new), CI annis, patriarchs, and a fat cigar in cello without a label...

..........and the cream of the crop a nice lancero with a label that reads "Gauwd Awful Cat rocket FIRE MMMhers spring herf 2009". sadly, i am interested in smoking that soon, but how embarrassed will i be if i like it.

WOW! just wow! many thanks. right when my humis are reasonable, i am FULL again! WAIT! i think i got an 8-5-8 rosado, too!!!!!!!!

Damn kid, you got knocked the fuq out.....nice work everyone!

I almost didn't open this thread because of that thread title.....

well anyways WOW! What a HUGE package!

Awesome hit on the brother!! As always, glad I could help. I will miss being the middle man for Burge when I leave Japan next month. I always love seeing how bad he gets beat before he does, and then laughing when I drop it off at the domestic PO. I always hint, like "hey you got a little something from..."

And yes that was a HUGE package, same box I picked up two days earlier from Jules. I just seperated my ass whoopin and added the other hits/trades I had been storing for Brian and put it back in the mail.

WTG all!!

i would totally love being the first to see a hit on you!

did you try the whiskey? almost too damned nice to open. gonna stare at it for a week or so.

Just drink it! It is really good. About the only peaty scotch I have liked.

Brian, you had it coming. You and Jim have both mangled Moose Manor.

Enjoy!

^Jules, I am pretty sure you have beaten me to a pulp in comparison to the mild hits I have attempted on you.

Yes Brian, I tried it the night I got it. I am like a little kid when it comes to stuff like that...plus I can't pack it up, so I gotta drink it before I leave, lol.

wow, that's awesome! good thing that sucker didn't see customs, lol.

^Thats the beauty of APO my friend...you will see. Email me before you get in, let me know your dates... we gotta herf at least once before I leave.

AWESOME job guys!!!!

customs is exactly why diver sacrifices for the team.

well, jules, it is ON! i have an article from 2008. best single malt and blend whiskeys were from Japan. a $300 21 year-old blend and i have to find the article for the single malt, but i think i sent a small bottle to englet--he liked it. the 17 year version of the blend is one of the best whiskeys i have had...definitely the most unique! aged in cedar barrels.

It is not sooo much a sacrafice...^ this guy takes pretty damn good care of me...UNDERSTATEMENT!!!

Awesome! Way to go, all!

I'm glad you finally got them piggies

BTW That 858 rosado is the new release...

Enjoy!

Wow....

you really do have a huge package......

AR--thanks, bro...i missed it the first time around...when i was packing them up, i noticed it. thanks, man!

#15 you sound excited

^ you tellin' me you don't appreciate a huge package Ray??

Depends on what that huge package is....

if it's junk, I'll let you have it.....

^ "junk".....
