Hey FireMedic, Good Job! Glad I could be the one to break your Box Passing Cherry!
Perhaps we can get rid of a few more on Friday (your wife did tell you that you invited us over on Friday, didn't she? )
Don't forget to post the Delivery Confirmation # when it's shipped!
Thanks again,
Dave

That Atlanta, ILLINOIS.. LMAO If you're my neighbor you must be a farmer. LOL Actually Atlanta, IL is where my office is. I live farther downstate. 
As a side note. I will be on vacation, leaving Friday and returning Sunday. No work or mail on Monday so I won't see the box until Tuesday at the earliest.

Matt, duh...silly me...LOL Herf...where was I at?
I went to school at SIU-C and dated a farm girl from Panama. Ever here of that? It's near Alton, home of Popeye. And of course I had to go to Metropolis and smoke one with Superman. Yup, Illinois is farm land for sure. Corn Corn AND more Corn. Or Milo.
Emo -Pensacola, FloriBama the bar or will you be in an un-disclosed location? I'll be in Panama City 3rd week of June.
Lee found a phat smoke for you - The Drew Estates "The Egg" full of "pipe" tobacco - Latakia and Syrian stuff.

OK Atlanta Illinois, so I am a little soft. Dave, yes dinner is on Friday, I heard you're bringing the food and booze, you might as well bring the gars too.,Bring Carrie if you think of it.
Matt, the box (really big) wont fit in your mailbox, leave an umbrella at the door for the postal service to place it under. It should be there Sat. PM. Conf # 03001290000518007619.
It was under 10 bucks.
Jerry G. I too attended, and I stress attended, SIU-C in the early 80's, probable the reason for my poor geography.

You may have gotten the wrong impression since we love to give Dave a hard time ( I mean geez have you ever read the rules of one of his passes 
LMAO), but make no mistake he is "A#1" in my book and a great cigar passer
FM43 as the saying goes Good Food, Good Drink, Good Friends and Good Cigars that's what life is all about.
Glad all of you had a great evening

Man, I was afraid someone was going to ask what we were smoking..... Jeff (FM43) had one of my infamous "mystery" cigars (i.e. something I won from cigarpool, that had no band, and no note saying what it was), he said it was very similar to a Punch. I, on the otherhand, had a "Dave's an idiot and doesn't write down what he buys" cigars... here's what it was: A. Fuente, black band. I think it was probably a Hemmingway, but wouldn't swear to it. It was one of those funky shaped ones. You can see as I'm holding it, the general shape, now imagine it about one inch longer, with a super tapered tip, the kind that you can get lit in about 2 seconds, and the cherry just spreads beautifully from the teeny tip across the whole head of the cigar. Nice solid medium strength, probably a wee-bit strong for my likes, but hey - good company, good booze, good nicotine buzz, it was a very good evening.
WAIT A MINUTE!!! I just did a little research, and as most of you have probably figured out by my description, it was a Hemmingway Short Story! Phew! Mystery solved.
Thanks for a great evening Jeff.

Ok everyone, I was just thinking about what a good time I had last night, and thought I'd try to share it with the rest of you...
NEW RULE:
If you desire, you may share the boxpass with a friend or two, to help introduce them to box passing, and CigarPass in general. These friends, however, will be held to traditional box passing rules (i.e. NO reverse-ratio). Take a few, put in a few more, preferably better quality (this should be supervised by YOU). Let's not get toooooo crazy with "friend puts" so I don't get 400 back from my original 100. Use your best judgement.
As far as the inventory goes... if you can get them to sign up on CigarPass, use their new username and mark it as "Yourname - TheirName" (i.e. If it was Jeff and me, we would have put "DaveWF - FireMedic43") - otherwise mark it down as your friend. For instance, if I was doing it, I'd have puts & takes under "DaveWF" and "DaveWF Friend1", "DaveWF Friend 2", etc. Sorry if it's confusing, email me if you don't get it.
The only stipulation I want to make is that all "friend transactions" be done in YOUR PRESENCE. DO NOT mail the box to anyone not on the list. If they can't get to you, or you can't get to them, they don't get in on it. I do not want to risk losing the box over an unknown trader.
Remember, this is not mandatory, but I highly recommend it. You'll have a blast showing off all those cigars to someone that probably hasn't seen that many together outside of a cigar shop. If it's absolutely guaranteed that they'll show up, you may hold the box through the weekend after you receive it. This is the only reason you shouldn't be running to the post office the day after you receive the box.
If it's possible, take a picture of two (preferably digital) and post it here. If you don't have online storage, email it to me at DaveWF@CigarPass.com - tell me who's in it, and I'll post it for you.
Remember, this is optional, but trust me - you'll love it.
Dave
