I believe I now know what it's like to be smacked around like a "red headed step-child"...

The post office is apparently unreliable if you don't track your shipments... some **** is out there smoking the cigars from his first volley. So, what does Greg do? he sends more...

If this package is any indication of what was in the other, GD... I hate that postal worker even more!!!

An Edicion de Silvo...(beautiful double corona)

a CAO sopranos... (and not an Associate or Soldier... a BOSS)

a RP 1992 (one of my favorite cigars)

a CAO Brazilia

a Joya de Nicaragua Antano (churchill size.. I've wanted to try this size, the consul is great)

and a friend from Habano to keep them company! Never tried one from the island GD... I have to say, this package outdoes most of my smokes...yikes!!!!!!

I'm keeping an extra close eye on my postal workers here... I just don't trust them now.. 🙂

Hehe...

If both of our packages from GD were snagged at the same time, I suspect a postal worker in Illinois has figured out what's in GD's packages. ****. I say we take a trip there an hunt him down!!!!

this was a while back, but he DID tell me that yours did not come through, as well.

I remember he sent us both an email saying the packages went out. So, GD makes a trip to the post office and hands them two (2) packages. Moments later some disgruntled postal worker is sitting out back smoking himself silly. As much as I appreciate the hard work these people do (the mail never stops)... I do think this is a violation punishable by death.

Nah. I doubt it was any of our local guys. Just victims of the delivery process.

Burgess, I did mail another one out to you same time as Victor's, so hopefully it's enjoying a nice flight over the Pacific right now.

V, hope you enjoy them.

I knew better than to send them without confirmation, but I just had my brain on too many other things at the time.....all my packages had them this time, though! LOL

Unfortunately, Burgess' aren't so easy to track as the domestic addresses.

that is true...bassdude will attest to that.

is it just me, or does anyone else feel guilty about making a guy send a second package. i am a sucker for intentions...you INTENDED to bomb me, but the PO screwed us. should be enough...to be honest, the thought COUNTS with me! thanks, bro!

That Greg knows how to hit. Pretty damn good fella too.

If we didn't want to do it, we wouldn't have, bro.

You can't make GD do anything he doesn't want to do!

You must be Catholic with all that guilt, burg. Or else you have a German mother stashed away somewhere... LOL

LOL! actually, not a catholic, though i went to a pretty conservative Christian college (in IL--you have heard of Wheaton College, right).

yeah, i have always felt guilty about everything...it is the source of ALL of my health problems, though at 30, these trite troubles are just warnings for later.

i get nervous alot, too...acid reflux burns me...cigars have actually calmed my nerves quite a bit.

my mom tells a story like this. she was out shopping; dad found a broken mirror (big--it had been jumped on). dad asked the 3 of us, who did it. no one confessed; i was spanked. mom came home, i ran to her crying. not from the spanking--dad was a softy, really, but i did not want him mad at me, AND there was a grave INJUSTICE! she brought me in...dad said i "looked guilty"...mom was sad. she said, watch this..."brian, people are starving in africa." apparently, i looked guilty then, too.

i was once an inocent boy, who was actually one of the most wholesome to walk the planet...then, my parents got divorced....and now i am a crusader for justice...

and i think it is unfair that you (oranyone) pay twice for someone else's mistake! that is all i am saying.

I'm with Burgess on this one... I feel bad for GD having sent two packages (make that 4) because the PO screwed him. It must be the catholic church....

But, apparently GD is undaunted by such trivialities... it certainly teaches me a lesson. Tracking Tracking Tracking.
