I'm there, the only question is whether I go on two wheels (bike), four wheels (car), or god-knows-how-many wheels (septa). See you there.

Re-ordering of the last 4 items 63 Hemingway Signature Maduro 65 CAO Vision 65 (repeat) Diamond Crown Maximus Churchill 66 Anejo 50 Please scratch the VSG for Hemingway on account of damage - minor but sufficient. My p/t's P: 67 La Aurora 100 Anos Robusto, T: 37 La Aurora Preferido #2...

Interesting and well-written, thanks. It seems that the cult of the warrior - the individual warrior who changes the course of a battle, by virtue of skill and courage - is a universal human trait. The Chanson de Roland, for example, deals with the last stand of Roland, singlehandedly holding...

If you're looking for a business degree, I graduated last spring, so I have a little insight as to what made it useful for me: 1) I learned stuff (basic business, finance/ops/marketing) 2) I worked with good people and learned tons from them. Big attitude adjustment for me. 3) I met alumni and...

All packed up and pickup scheduled for tomorrow.

OK - I'll try to do HTF for HTF, "normal" for "normal", inasmuch as possible. Tom, the LFD Cameroon Lancero is moving on ... do your worst :) P: Ashton VSG Enchantment, T: Fuente Hemingway Signature Maduro P: La Aurora 100 Anos Robusto, T: La Aurora Preferido #2 Maduro P: Rocky Patel Decade...

Restrictions in that HTF for HTF applies as opposed to general price for price - I seem to recall that LFD Double Ligero Cameroon were also limited distribution. However, if HTF for HTF doesn't apply, might as well take advantage (at least a little bit :-) )

Is the Boris 11 a HTF (as far as I know, it's an Avo 22, right?). Likewise, are there any restrictions on the Padron 1926 or the LFD Cameroon Lancero?

Inspection complete - all sticks are good. (I didn't check the numbering, should I have?) P/T's are ready - I just have to complete my "sourcing" exercise to make sure the prices are spot-on. If I have any questions, I'll PM before posting; I just don't want there to be a big fuss about correct...

Got it on my doorstep, I'll double-check numbering this evening.

Hi guys, I have a serious problem at hand. Today, my wife received several calls from someone who was harassing her (details confidential, of course, but not good - it looks like some sick puppy wants to break up our quite-solid marriage). This is the first day it's happened. They called both...

Well, the pass has come to a conclusion. Thank you, everyone. It's been quite the experience, and I think that I'll do it again (although perhaps the first couple of months of a new job is not the right time). You are all - every one of you - welcome to my next and every future pass. I would...

Approved - and you nearly let the signature maduro slip through. (You were supposed to get it, subtle hint). Answer's in your inbox.

All but Sam's are in place - consider the suspense part of the pass experience. (Actually, my fault - I have no idea where time goes these days. Probably in traffic on the turnpike, come to think of it.)

The Pass's Final Contest! Given all the contests that have been run by participants (thank you!), it's only fair that I close out the pass with a good contest. I was thinking of laying odds as to what day the package would hit my doorstep, but there's not enough latitude in there for a good...

I'll approve everything but the Signature Maduro - I let the two Hemingway Maduros in at price-par, but please leave something in there for the next guy.

Sorry, guys - totally wiped these days, and trouble in paradise, etc etc. Anyhow, pt's look good, approved. I'll log on tomorrow evening and update the master list.

True enough. I thought about ratcheting at the start, and have refined my thoughts as I go along. First, ratcheting is exacerbated by a small volume, because you get more churn on a smaller volume, especially as a number won't be picked up. So I put a fairly large quantity in place. Second...

Sounds good to me.

The HTF for HTF rule is not in effect, so you can, hypothetically, put a HTF in or take a HTF out. I'm stating that the rule is not in effect in order to keep with the spirit of the pass, so keep the spirit of the pass in mind as you consider your p/t's. If you intend to put one in, drop me a...
