CP's "Cigars 101" Newbie pass 3

Sweetness. I think khari said it best, and I forget the exact words, but it was something about being so excited that we usually take for granted. This perfectly describes me right now.

I'm glad it is all ok. I imagine the beads are on the dry side though. It's been 6 days since I sent it out.

I hope I never have to do this much work to send a package again.

Enjoy the pass. Good luck sending it back east. :)

Cheers,
Chris

Wow.... is it just me or does it seem like it was longer than six days. What an ordeal! It feels like it's been a month. A long, antagonizing, gut wrenching month!!! :sign: Chris you deserve a freakin' medal for what you've been through. I'm ecstatic we're back on track..... and startin' to get those butterflies back!!!! :thumbs:
 
Okay, here is my attempt at puts and takes:

Take- (#52) Diamond Crown Maximus Puramid #3
Put- (#62) Padron Anniversary 1964 Piramide Maduro

Take- (#46) Padron Magnum Maduro
Put- (#63) Ashton Aged Maduro #30

Take- (#16) H. Uppman Vintage Cameroon Robusto
Put- (#64) Cuesta Rey Pyramid #9

Take- (#50) Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic
Put- (#65) Ashton Cabinet Pyramid

Take- (#9) Cusano Corojo '97 Robusto
Put- (#66) Don Pepin Moduro Selecto

I realize that there is already an Ashton Cabinet in the box. If you would like be to pull that, I can.

Hope these are reasonable!

I think the "medal" will be the $25 bucks I plan to get back from the Post Office now that I have proof that Steve's work really exists.

I appreciate the thumbs, but I really don't deserve anything. It is just an unfortunate, infrequent part of the job. Hopefully I have absorbed all the blows for this pass. Next time, it is someone else's turn.

Enjoy the pass and I want to see who wins the "get to Jonesys" contest now.

Yeah, about that. Bad news: Jonesy's had some things come up and he had to drop out. More bad news: Since he's no longer in the pass, the contest can't actually take place, can it? Small consolation: The contest has been changed. It's now when it gets back to my house. Since the contest has changed, we're going to give everyone another guess starting now. The same rules apply. You have until 3/12 at noon EDT to submit your guesses.

By the way, Lovetheleaf had to drop out as well. Just thought you might need that info.
 
Like I said earlier, if everybody overnights it from here on in... :whistling:

Edited to amend message because Khari and I were typing at the same time.

Sorry to hear we had drop outs. Hope everything is okay.

Man Larry, thanks for the pics! Amazing! That must've been one hell of a trip. So uhh... I see they haven't finished construction on your house. How much did that li'l shack run you? :sign:

I'm sorry..if I were to ever drop the amount of coin needed to build that monster home, someone better give me a swift kick in the nutts! I've seen some big houses before, but this guy must be over compensating for something?? Maybe a PETIT corona?
 
Steve,
Well done on the takes and puts. Go ahead and check the beads and give them a few spritzes of distilled water, then PM the next person on the list to see if they're ready. Don't forget to post the DC or tracking number here.

That should be me.

Showtime!
 
Just so everybody knows, Steve and I have already been in contact and the package will be heading back east tomorrow. Chris, you can wave as it passes by you.
 
The pass sheet has been updated. Steve, let me know if any of your trades changes. Otherwise John, you're free to do your puts and takes when we get a DC #.
 
Friday, April the 4th, the package will arrive at khari's address.

Bummer about the two drop-outs. I guess they will have to re-take the class next term.
 
Okay guys, I believe that FedEx will pick up the package shortly. It should arrive on Thursday before 7:00 pm. Here is the tracking number:

798893369330

No more West Coast trips for that box, please! Now I just have to find time to enjoy my new smokes!

Cheers!
 
I think I'll be optimistic and pick April 1 for my pass arrival date. That is my sister's birthday, so she can help me out here.

Good luck everyone!
