    I'm doing this for the Base Chaplain. He's not tech savvy and I offered to see what I could do because he'd like to start one for the troops here and didn't know where to go. All I'm doing is passing him the info if I can find it. I'm asking because I can't find anything after the first dozen or so pages of Google searching ..... which was the same road block I had the last time I asked.

    Some of the sites I've found aren't online or they simply can't meet the demand. Some of the sites are blocked or aren't categorized, and since our internet at work is filtered by content they either come back as blocked or they simply don't load because of the lack of being categorized. Trying to work around that problem, I've tried it from the internet connection I get in our living area but my IP shows up as being from the Middle East and blocked by them on their end. There are some forums I visit, like Diesel Power Magazine, that will not allow me to login because I have a foreign IP.

    Like I said ..... I can do a few cigars and a humidor, but there is no way I can do 80 to 100 cigars a month because my wife would kill me. None of you can honestly try to tell me that your wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend wouldn't do the same to you. If you guys can help me out with info then I'd appreciate it ..... if you can't then that's fine as well.

    I didn't realize my "contractor money" was an issue for some since all I really wanted, and made perfectly clear, was some good info.
    I don't give a flying fuck how much money you make. Nothing in my post was directed at your salary. It's also been my experience that Chaplains have shit loads of contacts to get help/assistance for their troops. Maybe that doesn't apply to cigars though.

    Here's one link: http://cigars.about.com/b/2008/04/16...for-troops.htm

    And also, some cigar outlets on the web donate cigars to the troops when you purchase certain brands or samplers or sumptin'......I don't think you can specify exactly which troops they go to though, so this might not be what you're looking for.
