Having recently become a bit more active on CP has brought back so many good memories I thought it would be a good idea to create a thread where people can reminisce about their special moments; with pictures we hope. Whether it be the classic lines from a classic FOG like the recently lost Devil Doc, bombs, the newbie/FOG wars, the HERF’s, or just the earlier days of CP. Thanks @Rod !
When I joined in 2007 it seemed that a newbie/FOG war was a regular occurrence and we were no exception. @jfields , and many others of us got involved in a war with FOG’s that damn near broke several of us newbies! Below is the label that we newbies had made and attached to a cigar to represent the fact that we “thought” we won the war. We sent them to FOG's and challenged them guess what the stick was. There were pipe bombs, glass bombs, stink bombs, and many more.
"Para Los Nuevos" meant "For the new ones"

At one time I bombed Miamicubano with this gem, we had so much fun playing it out!

This is how the build started:

This is mid-way:

This is how it ended:

If you read the post you will see reference to a bomb that @AVB encased in concrete in a flat rate USPS box, I think it weighed 50 pounds? And I sent Smokyballs a bomb which was encased in a 3” PVC pipe with caps glued on the end. If he cut it in the wrong place, he would ruin the cigars. Let’s just say he finally got it open and was the better bomber on that exchange!
Last but not least, Jfields, Mysterea, Jonesy, Seth and myself all agreed to meet for a primitive camping trip in West Virginia, none of us had ever met with the exception of Mysterea who was my brother in law. This could go very bad! But we had a blast and the friendships and memories will live on forever!
I kept trying to take a picture of John and I swear, I got this same picture at least five times, he kept putting the camera up so I couldn't take his picture.

After I was sure I got him this time, this is the picture John took of me when I went back to the image and found the exact same thing:

There may have been alcohol involved!
