Awesome bands, Clown! Thanks for letting me play! :D

The pass is in Big100HD's hands - as we were screwing around taking too many pictures and didn't get around to his P/T's.

Cheers,

- Oak
 
A few FYI's from the pass:

1) As I said above, I'm pretty sure the Work of Art was indeed a maduro. Check out the pic in the post above, it's essentially identical in color to the untold story maduro on the right - and the contrast with the natural cigar in the mix is severe. This is a good thing - as the maduro is better - but just wanted to mention it.

2) #16 - a Monte Delacroix Royal is somewhat damaged on the near the head on the side. Needs some wrapper repair or it will unravel in your mouth pretty immediately.

3) #38 - This was in a monte delacroix tube, but was not a delacroix but a monte platinum.

We just noticed these things while sifting at random - just FYI for the record.

- Oak
 
Shelly's is a great cigar bar. Good to see John (Lumberg) again. Even better to put a face with the name Oak. Remember Ed, Now I know ya, no holding back.

Thanks again for the bands clown, this was a fun experience, and yes that WOA is indeed a WOAM. I happened to have a WOAM that I gave to BigHD as part of a past lottery win and the coloring of the sticks was indentical.

And oak thanks for your generosity and Frank for the freebie!

There needs to be some kind of super-smiley to express what I am feeling now.

Well I tried matching puts to takes a few different ways and it looked like you had it covered quite well but it was just a quick perusal.

It'd be nice to get a few more opinions so mayeb this baby can go out on Saturday!
