    I'm still waiting on the cigars from Avalon. I'll let you guys know as soon as it comes in so we can do a final rollcall and get started.

    It was a pleasure meeting you at RTDA. You've got the sticks now so I hope everyone enjoys them.

    Best Regards,

    I got to meet Tom and Gary at the RTDA. They are a great bunch of guys. I got 25 Honeyboy Edward Robusto's for the pass and am going to get them ready to send out next week.

    Lets do a final roll call before we kick this guy off!

    Here is a quote Tom just sent me about the Honeyboy Edwards:

They will be shipping out nationwide in mid to late September and are currently available in a handful of shops, including Serious Cigar in Houston.

    Let Mithril take my spot if that is cool. I have several trips planned coming up over the next couple months which might cause a conflict or slow down the pass.

    I'm almost done getting things organized to send out. I'm thinking we are probably going to need to split up the Pass for our brothers up North. I'll take care of that part.

    The US portion of the pass will go as follows:
    1. guado - Tampa, FL
    2. ReV - Mobile, AL
    3. The Korean - Danham Springs, LA
    4. spiffykyle - Dickinson, TX
    5. ashauler - Wichita, KS
    6. mithril - Beach Park, IL
    7. cigarsarge - Jackson, TN
    8. hex1848 - Tallahassee, FL
    The Canadian portion of the pass will go as follows:
    1. Roham - Calgary, Alberta
    2. Kass - Mississauga, ON
    3. hex1848 - Tallahassee, FL
    We have 25 sticks to play with, with 10 people that leaves 2.5 sticks per person. Lets say everyone gets 2 sticks and leave it up to each of you - if you really want the third take it, just make sure everyone down the line is going to have a chance to get 2 sticks. I'm not too worried about getting two myself, so keep that in mind.

    I'm going to send 5 up to Canada and send off 20 to the US group.

    The boxes will go out Monday as I have to go by the Post Office in person to fill out the custom forms.

    US Pass:

    Delivery Confirmation™ Label Number: 0103 8555 7491 0922 1419

    CA Pass:

    Priority Mail International® Label Number: CJ154167647US

    I still got to drop these off at the post office in the AM. I went ahead and did the online deal, hopefully I can just hand the International Mail box to the teller and not have to get in line since it has the customs form built in.
