    Default Update and Bump

    Alright folks, here is the progress so far. I have gotten a PM from the following people offering to donate.

    Hefty Smokes
    Sammis
    Diesel Grinch
    Ashauler
    SpiffyKyle
    Smoked

    Thanks to all of those who have pledged.

    I also sent a pm to Lopaka, but haven't gotten a response (which I understand), but I saw in his one post in this thread, that he will be leaving in January, the same time we will be sending. Does the group still want to send to his division? I am sure that will be ok, just want to throw that out there.

    Sorry,

    Just been a little busy. I post and respond to PM's when I can. Currently, I'll be leaving in the middle of January. So, I don't know if it will get here before I leave. All the smokers I hang out with are cigarette smokers. I'm the only cigar smoker in the group. I don't think sending me Cigars to take home is your intention.

    Might be good to find someone else. If you do send them to me, then they will probably arrive for me to take home.

    However, thanks for the thought.

    Yeah, I keep telling people Black and Mild are not real cigars. Try to convert. However, for some odd reason they like them.

    I know there are some more generous folks out there, step right up!

    Also, does anyone know of a AFO to send the package to? Lopoka will be back (Thanks for the service) so I wanted to ask the group.

    Alright folks, yet another shameless bump

    I have gotten a donation outside of this board.

    I did a quick count and so far from all that I have received, and those I have set aside, we are up to about 110 sticks. I'm hoping to get over 200 by the time I send this off in another week or two.

    Hey folks,

    I work at a newspaper here in Chattanooga, Tn. This would make a great story for one of our reporters.

    Could somebody pass along to me some good contacts for the story??

    PM me.

    Default I suck at Life right now

    Fellas,

    Let me first off saying the following is not an excuse, and I don't want to come off as being an A$$.

    My work sucks right now. I have spent just about every weekday from Feb 6th in a $hit hole called Ardmore OK. My company has an account there and we are going through a management transition, while that transition goes on, I have to fill in, which completely is not in my list of things I wanted to do in my life.

    Ok, more to the point. The sticks are all packed up and ready to send, they are in in 18x18x18 box with packing peanuts and all. I do have a huge favor to ask from a botl here, is anyone willing to have my wife ship these to you and you ship them to an APO address. If this sounds strange or not on the up and up, here is my reason, my loving wife has agreed to help me get these off of her dining room floor, but she doesn't want to have to fill out the forms to send to an APO. If someone agrees, she said she will send them out ASAP, I will also send a MO for shipping. I haven't been her for along time, but I hope all of you will understand, again, I don't want to seem to be a flake or anything of that sort, work sort of screwed with me after the new year.

    If someone would be kind enough to do this, please PM me with your address and I'll get the wife to send them out, at the same time, I'll send a MO to you so within 2-3 days you should have both.

    Kevin

    Cabaiguan Juan offered to help me out on this. The smokes have been sent to him, along with some $ for shipping. Thank you so very much Cabaiguan Juan for doing this for me.

    I know due to me, this shipment didn't get out as quickly as intended, and for that I apoligize. I'll make no excuses.
