Heard that KB! being after Freebern, Ree, and BD, we're going to see most of them gone

 

[gtphale]

Oh man i'm first and have no idea where togo with this pass. I have been so busy that i've been totally out of it lately ,Guess i'm going to have to see what I can pull out to drop into this pass.

 

[gtphale]

hmm that number 6 is only like a 3 dollar smoke? Just checking to see if I'm looking at the right thing

 

[KayakinBoy]

No need to complain though. I'd even love to be last. With a great set of guys, i know this pass will be a nice one!

 

[BrownDevil]

I'll be sure to take pictures :laugh: :laugh:

Steve & Dub-G Jr. need to trade in those tired jersey's for some 49er colors!!

Our new QB is gonna kick some serious ass this year :sign:


EDIT: Just noticed.....FOG rookie....... :laugh: :laugh: you're still newbieER than me brother

 

[Beefcube]

Always good to put faces with names !

 

[gtphale]

Talk about running we got the best in the draft this year. He's going to run over alot of line backers this year.

 

[gtphale]

Alex is going to put my puts and takes up. He has the list,but I got everything approved from the host,so I'm hopefully did well enough. Getting hard to take non isom's,Seems I haven't bought very many lately I got into the isom fad.

I was wondering how long it would take for you to notice that.. :laugh:

I may be NewbiER than you, brother, but I'm a FOG in training!!! Gotta serve my apprenticeship!!!

BTW - a couple of notes...

1st - There are a bunch of cigar bags, a marker, the pass list and the participant list in the cigarbox in the pass. I also threw in printed out mailing labels with tracking numbers for everyone to make it easier. They are numbered in pass order to help. I also threw a spool of tape in the box for packaging.

2nd - There are three bags in the container - one is pretty full, and contains all of the non-ISOM's in the pass (#'s 1 to 25). The second bag contains the remainder of smokes (all ISOM's at this point). The third bag contains the pass smokes for the participants - each cigar is in it's own baggie, and has your name written on them (these are the AVO LE05's). The LE05's come unbanded, so I put a special band commemorating my granddaughters birth on each. Please take one - these are your thank you for participating in my pass, and commemoratimg Kiley's birth!

3rd - each of the bags contains a humidification pillow. If any of them gets low, please charge them up with distilled water. I also threw three extras into the cigarbox in case any of them fails. The instructions are contained on the little baggie they are stored in.

Thanks again to all for participating!!! You guys are a great bunch!!!
