Incoming!

[imported_macms]

Received the first shipment from the raffle today. The coming week will see a huge increase. I plan on going to the Bunker (cigars on 6th) this Saturday afternoon to begin organizing and unpacking. At the moment 2775 cigars are headed this way. And this doesn't include the Gorilla math I've learned about from a couple of guys! :D

Please stop by if you have the opportunity for a cigar and pictures of shipments, unpacking and storing to be posted on forums.

FYI, I've ordered a big shipment of the new USPS flat rate boxes & labels for shipping. I also have the contact info for our guys over there to show you.

Hope to see you there!

That's great news Fred, I will try to make it on Saturday. I have several AF Cuban Beli boxes just sitting around, should I bring those to put singles in for storage or shipping?

[LordOfWu]

Great seeing you guys down at Cigars on 6th today! Sorry I made it too late to help unpack all of the boxes, remember to give me a call the next time and I'll help out!!!

[imported_macms]

I appreciate you coming down to help Mert. Next time, we will call you in advance. :mrgreen:

[St. Lou Stu]

Great job on the raffle Fred!
Thanks for putting this together.

Hey Gang, your newest member here. Tim, aka St. Lou Stu from CS.
Glad y'all let me in here, it'll be cool to see this place grow.
I used to live out there on the South side of Denver and still travel back that way from time to time. I can't wait to make a Front Range Herf!
I usually am out there in Manitou Springs every 4 July, but I'll be in Germany this year so it may be awhile before I make it out.
By the way, 858 Maddies are AWESOME. Buy 'em! They taste like Anejos, only better! :mrgreen:

[LordOfWu]

Tim, nice to meet you (virtually :) ) Let us know when you're coming out next, we can do a proper welcome back!

Fred...should we set up an introduction thread?

[jcarlton]

Welcome Tim :!: Glad to have you on board, just let us know when you will be in town and we will be sure to get a herf together.

[imported_macms]

Fred...should we set up an introduction thread?

I'm on it.

[opusfxd]

Hey guys! Thanks for your efforts yesterday. I tried to just stop by and drop stuff off but ran out of time. Let me know when the next one is and I'll see if I can lend a hand or two.

[imported_macms]

I'm going to the bunker late Monday afternoon with another shipment. Will probably be there for several hours. I also need to mail out a couple of hundred cigars to Tony (newcigarz).

Let me know if you can make it. :P

[opusfxd]

If by late afternoon you mean about 5 or so, I might be able to assist.

[imported_macms]

That will work. My cell is 720-231-0600. I don't know how many packages to expect. Tuesday may work better or even Wednesday.

[opusfxd]

Tuesday is out for me, kids night. I'll come packed for tomorrow and see what's up from there.

[LordOfWu]

Fred! I saw the post w/ 36 boxes coming in today (on CS)!!! You headed down today or later this week? If I don't see something here in a few minutes I'll give you a call...

Everytime I see a post about this topic I just want to break out in the song "We are the Champions"!

[imported_macms]

All done! thanks. :mrgreen:

[LordOfWu]

Holy Crap! You already took all those boxes down?!? Geez, Fred...you da man!!

Anything you need from me/us? Some icy/hot or an ice pack or anything? :mrgreen:

[opusfxd]

Wow!!! That's crazy.

So you still planning on Wednesday as well?

[imported_macms]

UPDATE

No packages today! I will wait until Friday evening to go to the bunker and NOT go Wednesday evening. Let me know if this works for you guys.

[imported_macms]

See above

[LordOfWu]

I'm good for Friday...we can make this a nice evening herf/troop cigar management session!

That's right, more excuses to get together and smoke cigars...I think we're officially a success!!! :mrgreen:

[opusfxd]

FAC! Friday afternoon Cigars. Yummy. I'll see what I can do.

All bad days for me. Hopfully I'll make it down for one of these sessions.

[opusfxd]

What's the box count today??

[jcarlton]

So is Friday a go?

[imported_macms]

About 10 boxes as of this morning. Today and Friday we should get a lot more. so Friday is a go.

I am just lost without that damn dancing chicken...(picture it here)




:mrgreen:

[LordOfWu]

This is going to be a great way to end the week, and most definitely needed!!!

:mrgreen:

[imported_macms]

18 boxes as of today plus whatever comes in tomorrow.

[LordOfWu]

OK, looks like I'll leave work between 3:30 and 4 tomorrow to head down to the bunker. I can't wait, I've had a long, long week!

[opusfxd]

I'll try and cut out soon after. Fortunately it's a straight run down 6th.

(Tried to paste the dancing chicken in here, didn't work)

[opusfxd]

Looks like a good number coming in tomorrow judging from the guys that posted on CS. I'll bring a cigar for the person that can closest guess the number of boxes that come in tomorrow before Fred calls and checks. Fred, you're valid too if you don't cheat too much. :lol:

[LordOfWu]

27 total boxes is my guess!

[opusfxd]

So far you're the closest!! ROFL!!!

[LordOfWu]

Well since I can't seem to keep up w/ your posting, maybe I'll win something at least!











(yep, that's an indirect reference to you being the better post whore)

[opusfxd]

I have no life. Sad but true. Sitting in front of the screen all day every day for a job doesn't seem to hurt much either. But I have found the end of the internet. Twice.

[jcarlton]

I'll go with 36 boxes.

[imported_macms]

I hope the majority of the remaining come in. I'm thinking a big hit will occur tomorrow, Saturday.

[LordOfWu]

Jamie, how can I guarantee a win if I'm not the only one guessing?!?

Geez...guess I'm back to trying to outpost the duck!

[opusfxd]

I am not a duck. I am a motor scooter riding flightless waterfowl. Big difference. :D

[LordOfWu]

AFLAC!

[opusfxd]

AFLAC my a...

BTW, the incredible folks over at Taboo threw in about half dozen cutters with my order. Wanna guess what for?? :D

Dem folks ROCK!!!

Oh and I got a bunch of golf tees too for the tourney. (Now you guys have something to play off of.)

[LordOfWu]

Fred, what's the word, are we going to do the drawing tomorrow? Is it too late for that, do we need to just schedule it this weekend?

[imported_macms]

Still have a lot of cigars due. Lets plan on the weekend for the drawing.

I still have mine that need to go to the bunker, but I figured I'd just hand em to ya. :P

[physiognomy]

Sounds like a few more boxes are trickling in... Can't wait to light a good one tomorrow afternoon @ the bunker.

ps - You guys lose this somewhere??? http://www.clubstogie.com/vb/images_cs3/smilies/th_dancing-chicken.gifhttp://www.clubstogie.com/vb/images_cs3/smilies/th_dancing-chicken.gifhttp://www.clubstogie.com/vb/images_cs3/smilies/th_dancing-chicken.gif

[LordOfWu]

OMG it's the chickens!!! But why aren't they dancing?!?

[opusfxd]

What's a time check for everyone? I'm open.

[opusfxd]

Waaaaah!!!! I don't see no chickens. :cry: :cry: :cry:

[opusfxd]

I see a chicken!!!! Now to go home and fix my home laptop.

[imported_macms]

Only 1 box today so there aren't that many to put away. 15 I think is the total :(

Cya guys this afternoon.
