CC . . . LMAO

You said what I was thinking when I read the first post.

Jstrider . . . how old are you? Are your parents paying for college? If so then keep the folks happy and leave them at home. Possibly bring it up casually when you are there and get a better feel for your mother's reaction.

Sure send Dad a sample pack and you will both be in the hot seat with mom

Also a couple suggestions . . .

How well do you know your local tobacconist? I am sure that if I told my guy that I was going out of town for a month or so and needed to borrow or rent some humidor space he would be happy to accomodate me - even though he does not provide this as a normal service.

Do you have a humidor? If so buy some Humi-Care or some of those beads. I believe (and someoen please correct me if I am wrong) that once charged that they will last for a couple months without issue. I am not sure if keeping the Humi closed for that long will cause some additonal problems - a good question for those here that are more knowledgeable.

Godd luck
