    Default Generosity

    I wanted to take a moment to publicly thank Cigarsarge for his recent generosity to this noob (200+ posts and still a noob).

    Anyway, about a month ago, Sarge was cleaning out some room in the humi and offered up some sampler packs. I jumped on it but asked him if he wouldn't mind waiting to send them off since I was in the process of moving. His reply was, of course, "no problem, lemme know when to shoot them your way." I got another message a few days later letting me know he had a nice sampler bagged up with my name on it.
    Well, a few weeks pass, and as I'm moving into my new house, disaster strikes. I had planned on leaving my humidor behind in the old house for a few days where I knew it would be safe and wouldn't get bumped and bruised during the move, but a friend helping me move saw it sitting there and packed it into the back of my van.
    Four hot days later, I got around to unpacking the van...and my humidor had turned into a science project.
    To make a terribly long story a bit shorter, I PM'd sarge and asked him to hold off a bit longer so I could set up a coolerdor since the humi went to the garbage. And once again the sarge obliged.
    When I finally gave the green light, Sarge sent a package along and apparently that baggy with my name on it gave birth to another baggy while in transit and somehow a little sampler became a HUGE package.
    I know Sarge will never admit it, but I think he saw a brother who was a bit inexperienced and a bit embarassed, and lent a helping hand.

    Just thought the board should know what a generous and good member we have in our ranks.

    Kudos.

    BLOWN AWAY-

    Two big ass bombs showed up today from NY. Tommy and Sid, you have humbled me.

    When I found this place, I instantly liked it, and I knew I found a home in the online cigar world...I went and looked at a few other places (mostly when their stink would spill over onto this board) but the other sites just didn't feel right. I know I made the right decision when I made this place my little online "spot."

    Asshats come in and wonder why we defend our "turf" so fervently...they just don't "get it."
    We have a bunch of friendly, knowledgeable, generous, opinionated, ornery, hilarious B'sOTL here (and a few sista's too!), and I'm glad to be a part of it.

    Thanks again to all you guys, now all y'all can fucking knock it off before I get all blubbery!

    Exactly my point. Why should I go anywhere else?





    Also, received ANOTHER bomb from a certain resident of the Windy City....now enough is enough! My mailman at my new house probably thinks I'm a damn drug dealer! I'm going to have to make him some of my "special" brownies so he doesn't turn me in

    Hefty, be careful with a package from Astoria, it was sent saturday June 2nd and just said delivered yesterday. Make sure the smokes have no beetles before letting them commune with other smokes.

    Thanks for the warning!

    As a matter of fact, the smokes were delivered yesterday to the neighbor's house and he brought them by this morning. I was out and the screen door was locked so the mailman wasn't able to put them in his usual spot. But they're here, safe and sound, and looking very healthy!

    And thanks a bunch for the sticks. You guys have been great.

    Aaron

    Just in case, I'd keep them in a separate tupperware for a week or so, they took 11 days (thanks priority mail) in summer heat.
