Spocimp,

The first KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken)? The first one of those is in Corbin KY. Right down the road from my parents house.

**slcraiders** · 02-17-2006, 10:52 PM

Wrong, UKY. The recipe was formulated there. The chicken was originally served there (hence the name), but it was not KFC. The first official KFC is here. The Colonel sold his secret recipe to a Utah businessman who opened the first franchise.

They have this cool statue of the Colonel and Pete Harmon at the rebuilt place. I hope to get that in the picture with the cigars.

OK, the "Sanders Cafe" is what's in Corbin. I stand corrected

Funny, TSC. I did not call you out on this thread "being one of the people in the pass". I did, however, address you the other night about your abbrassive attitude in general.

Your demeanor is oftentimes unappreciated. I love the thread you started. Great idea and equally great people involved. It is you and your shitty ass character that rub me the wrong way. Weirdness aside, you can be a real dick. Other times, you can be cool.

The pass shall go on, indeed. Also, I hope you return to CS with a new perspective and position. No one is chasing you out but yourself.

O.k. folks, the caboose package containing the camera came in the mail today. We are almost back on track. Unfortunately, I had lunch at the Worlds 5,112th KFC today, so I will need a day off. I will hit the World's First on Thursday, snap the photos, and get this sucka off to Aaron on Friday. This is going to be cool when all the pics come out. First, The JFK backdrop... ...a place I visit every time I am in Dallas, even though I think he is way overated at best. I am just into the whole conspiracy thing. Then the second set of pictures at the World's First KFC. This will be followed by Hefty's contribution; which is sure to be good. By the time this gets back to TSC (and assuming he comes back), there will be some insane pictures of cigars sitting next to who knows what

**slcraiders** · 02-23-2006, 01:51 PM

The photos were snapped this morning and the package is on it's way. Next stop: Montana

This should arrive on Saturday.

Some of the guys said to kill this pass and I thought about it...but, even though TSC started it, I'd like it to continue for the guys who signed up and aren't idiots. One thing Dave Letterman has taught me- even a monkey can paint.
So, I took a couple of pics in Billings, MT, on Saturday, one of a bronze commemerating the Great Centennial Cattle Drive of 89, and one of a statue of Dan Mortensen, a family friend considered to be one of the finest saddle bronc riders of all time. A pic of the statue is actually on this website. http://www.lockwood.k12.mt.us/cowboy/danhome.html

I am not --by any means-- a cowboy, but I tried to capture a little Montana flavor.

The pass went global priority to pyro on Sat. from a mailing center.

Oh ya, I put an Ashton VSG Corona Gorda and took a DC.

I agree killing the pass would be a bad move. the main thing I want is the pics so you can see where your cigar can travel too. I myself joined not because of the person organising but because of the spirit of the pass. I say send TSC the final 2 sticks so ass not to be fuckers but send the camera to someone trusted that will do the right thing with the pictures.

Sounds good...I'll send him a fresh disposable to replace his.

Hex is the last participant... We could sign him up to post them...

Or he could send them up to me and I'll do it.

**WOXOF** · 02-28-2006, 12:13 AM

I agree, we should keep this going regardless of what happens with TSC. I already have two spots picked out for pics.

**TheSilentChamber** · 02-28-2006, 03:52 AM

Dont worry about the camera and cigars. If I'm still here when hex gets the pass, he can send it back to me, if I'm not here, dont worry about it. I may be an asshole, but I'm trustworty- I want to see the pictures just as much as the next guy.

**prophetic_joe** · 02-28-2006, 04:08 AM

I wasn't trying to imply that you aren't trustworthy. The fact is I don't really know you, I have never had problems with you myself but I do know you rub quite a few guys the wrong way. You had said you were leaving for a bit and how would we know if you would stick around to finish out the pass, it would be a nice stand up move on your part if you did. I just don't think it would be cool for us to not return what you sent out and like wise wouldn't be cool for you to get the cigars and camera and then say "you know what those guys are assholes who don't want me around, fuck them" and then we don't get to see the pics, which is what this pass is really about.

Anyway that was much longer than I meant it to be. TSC if you want to stick around and do the pass great, if you don't we'll cover it and get you back the 2 smokes and a camera, no biggie either way.

Received the package today.

The La Flor Dominicana got smooshed. Bad. It's not savable nor smokable. I'm just going to replace both sticks. Will have this out probably on tuesday.

**TheSilentChamber** · 03-03-2006, 09:12 PM

Cool. That sucks about the LFD, thanks for replacing it though.

Sorry about the crushed smoke, Pyro...keep an eye on your mailbox; there'll be a nice replacement stick on its way shortly!

I don't really mind doing it, but I'm not going to tell you to keep a free smoke either!

Thanks a lot.

**thepyrofish** · 03-09-2006, 09:18 AM

Sent this out yesterday morning. Express was only 60 cents more than parcel post so It'll be there tomorrow I think.

**drew_goring** · 03-09-2006, 10:14 AM

Did you send it up here to Fort Crack? or did you send it to Roham?

**thepyrofish** · 03-09-2006, 07:37 PM

to you my friend. You were next right?
