    I've been away in the big city for a few days at the hospital (wifey's in getting surgery) and this is the first I saw of this pass and I could just shoot myself........

    I've spent a lot of money the last while on guns and gun related equipment and my cigar stash is reduced to such a state that I'm not able to participate.

    I did just email VancouverMark to let him know about it. He's been away for a while and the last I heard from him, he'd sold his home and was in the process of buying a new one and moving in so that's probably why we haven't heard from him in a bit.

    I'm now going to reread the list of cigars and go quietly cry in a corner.....

    My email to Mark was bounced back as undeliverable so I don't think he'll be getting involved either.

    First post updated; order and lineup finalized. Max takes has been raised to 5.

    I also dropped the Boli Short Boli as, although the tobacco and taste are okay, most of that box has been horrifically under-filled (super-loose draws). I also added some notes toexplain which cigars I thought were in a vacuum or sick period.

    Please PM me your addresses so I can pack the box up.

    The pass will go to America first; Sailor71 will go at the end - I can see him in-person. As consolation for going last, I can re-stock if desired.
    Will will get the pass first - and will also be sending it back to me - as that should help minimize potential border issues.

    CaptnBlues - hope your wife is fine and is recovering well.

    Your attention to detail is impeccable, and much appreciated. I briefly looked at the matrix you created, and think I will probably choose one from each of the first four categories, and try to take notes to compare. Thanks again Craig. Yep, pretty excited about this pass.

    The video I was referring to is on Youtube - well, it is for the moment. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLNW2s6XmlE
    One hour documentary - very well researched (as far as I can tell). Sad but great to see the top farmers of the 90's - all passed away now.
