You stated you received an email from TexasAggie? What'd it say?

PM sent...i'm not going to post it. The gist was that he's really sorry...alot of things are going on in his life, including medical issues. he got a slip from the PO stating that he had a package. I told him to email, or phone once he'd gotten it...Says he feels bad about not being around here, and felt as if his rep had been smeared because of his lack of posting, etc...

sounded like in addition to his life being topsy-turvey that he was sort of sick of the BS too.

It would be nice if he'd post instead of hearing it second hand.........that way we could draw our own conclusions ;)

texasaggie owes this pass and the participants in it a post telling everyone what's going on.

He's held it for a hell of a lot longer than I did and has YET to post WTF is going on.

But of course I get jumped ugly on and now we're supposed to feel sorry for poor ole Bradley for all the negativity.

BS to that :angry2:

texasaggie, you owe this board a post pure and simple.

I'm going to the grocery store tomorrow after work. Be sure to check in at 6:00 p.m. tomorrow to see just how much effect it had on my disposition ;)

i agree and i'm sure it will be forthcoming...

in the meantime can we get to the issue of how the participants want to handle the matter of splitting up the cigars once they are recovered?

im assuming that this pass is going to end.
 
I for one think you guys should send them sticks out to newbies. I believe some amends to the community is in order and this would be a good opportunity, since you all assumed they were all gone anyway...JM $.02...

thats a great idea...do i hear a second? oh wait...your not a pass participant :p
 
How about a grab bag of sorts?

Take all the cigars out, renumber them, and have pass members pick their allotted amount of numbers. ???
 
Just a sugestion, the participants are the ones to decide. My sugestion if your looking to give them away you might think about some deserving servicemen over seas. Like I said, it's up to the participants to decide, it's there sticks.

Ah perhaps it is a regional thing. At five in the evening on any given Friday in the small town of Front Royal, Virginia, one must interact with hordes of humanity escaping Washington DC and suburbs. It is an extremely eclectic mix from the human detritus (also know as the "Great Unwashed") from the surrounding mountains who are compelled to "go inta town fer eats" to the pampered, powdered well cared for rat bastids who live on the federal dole and must escape their hardship filled lives and spend the weekend getting back to their roots... that is a weekend in their 10000 SF country houses and alternate wait staff. These people, all of them, head for the store to stock up on various edibles, liquor and beer... lots of beer.... at 5:00 PM on Friday evening. The front of the store is completely clogged with this flotsam of humanity who are invariably angry, in a hurry, rude, hacking their lungs out with the flue, have 1.5 to 7.5 snot nosed children hanging off their carts in various stages of undress and screaming, with absolutely no regard for anyone around them and are intent on cursing the poor soul presently checking out 6 carts in front of them who is in desperate need of a price check for a single donut. The hostility one can experience here at 5pm on Friday is usually enough to get one "het up", start the old blood pumping, put a little starch in yer shorts, the old ticker clicking, and for me... well... an unsurpassed sense of superiority and joy in the knowledge that not one of these bastards is gonna live forever.

It just tends to get me in the mood for battle... didn't work though.

LMAO :laugh:

I'm glad I asked. That was a very vivid and entertaining description there. Your right, its a regional thing. Something I'd sure give a try though if only we had the eclectic mix. Unfortunately all we have is the red neck mouth breathers (its not my fault, I have sinus issues). Excellent description though. Thanks for the explanation.

Well Barney, you did a great job of trolling for responses. It's a little premature to be talking about what to do with the cigars. Until the next guy in line actually possesses them, this kind of conversation is pointless. A good comparison would be to plan out what I would buy with a million dollars if Ed McMahon were to show up at my doorstep. :p You KNEW people would take to the hook when you posted this. Of course, you couldn't do it through PM, that would be too discreet. :whistling: PM would've also been a good way to go about figuring out what to do with the cigars since it's obvious that anyone else involved in the pass is a little gun shy about speaking up as of late. You also KNEW people would respond to your bait by bolding and enlarging the "pass participants" part of this. You indirectly threw this red meat of an argument to the dogs and then proceeded to post in the two cents forum which has been dead for a number of days previously. No, no actions on your part to stir the pot. :whistling: :rolleyes:
 
I thought this had become gregor22's pass now. Why is Serve ending it for him? And ... there is no rule saying only pass participants can post in a pass thread!
 
Exactly!

I will be keeping an eye on this one to see how it ends and with whom....

See Barn, I'm not the only one questioning your ethics and you can call me names here, no need for you to pm me for that...... :laugh:

i didn't end it...rod did.

if there is someone here who isn't comfortable with posting here, the option is open to PM me directly, but i'd rather discuss it here. cliff so far yours is the only idea that i have gotten back.

as far as the guys that aren't in the pass, feel free to offer up suggestions, and thanks in advance to everyone.

buh-bye

Oh, so since Rod ended it, it's his fault that you get the pass and that the rightful person with whom it should go to does not.

its nobody's fault...lol...the pass is over because the administrator of the board wants it over. period.

as far as the disposition of the cigars, this is what we are trying to figure out.

want me to go a little slower? ;)

Who is in the pass that wants it to keep going is my question?

well since the $hit hit the fan about a week ago...everyone has headed for the hills.
the general consensus from the few that have PMed me is to shut it down and let the healing begin.
