I'm not a TV watcher but this series has me totally enthralled. It has everything: nuanced acting, fascinating characters, tantalizing technology, and enough twists turns and speculative ideas to draw you in and keep you engaged. This and Heroes are the only two shows I watch and I feel Fringe...

Haven't you heard? Smoking's bad for you. ;) Doh! He didn't just say that. Did he? :laugh: Must I refer you to the very educational scene from that seminal Asian-American Film, Ping Pong Playa? Doctor: "Mr. Wang?" Christopher: "It's Huang," doc." Doctor: "I'm sorry. Wong." Christopher: "Not...

Holy cow, Al. I have a buddy in BOA and I'll drop him a line to see what I can find out. But for now, do as you say and drop the fuggers. Do what you need to do and we'll do everything we can do to continue supporting your business. What freaking crazy times. Wilkey

I just wanted to take this early opportunity to wish all my CigarPass brothers and sisters a most joyous holiday season. Whether your holiday is Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, or Festivus, I hope that it will be filled with all that makes life the rich and wonderful blessing that it truly is...

He speaks wisely. The MaW-PIF is in good hands with guys like Josh around. Wilkey

LOL! Sounds like a tactical miscalculation of the highest order. :laugh: Wilkey

I just received a very nice package and letter from Chainer! How ever did you know I was down to my very last Moonie? You are a life saver. Thank you very much, sir. :thumbs: I've lived through a few of these newcomers' bombing campaigns and each one has been distinctive and delightful. I...

Sigh. So that's what a box of 55's looks like. :D Nice, really nice pickup, Jay! Wilkey

That's utterly nuts! Wilkey

I'll be in Denver from 4/2-4/4 in 2009 for a conference. Hope to meet some of the local CP'ers when I'm in town. I'm looking to add an extra day at one or both ends so as the time nears, I'll refresh this to see if we can scramble a couple of y'all for a dinner and smoke...if one can still do...

Thank you, Sean! That was very kind of you. :thumbs: Wilkey

I appreciate it, Doc. Goat milk, I'll drink. Goat skins, I'll wear. Hell, I'll even put goat cheese on my salad. But goat cream, someone else has got dibs on that product. And since this is the season of cheer, let me offer this to set things right after viewing that image. Go sistah...

In that case, the wish is yours to pass on to some deserving sucker. :p Wilkey

Thank you, Doc. Merry Christmas to you, sir. Wish away! :thumbs: Wilkey

Consider it done, brother. For my wish, I'd ask that the granter go to Garden Harvest and make a donation of at least $25. This can be a straight donation to their Milk and Eggs Program or the purchase of a farm animal such as flock of chicks or a share of a lamb. Tis the season to think of...

I agree with you, in2. Nicely written. Marco Polo has handled this with the utmost decorum and class. He and Sean had this worked out and unfortunately, another issue got turned up for flame-bait. Uncool. Post #86 is where this was resolved in the pass and any further discussion should have...

If in the cigar's place there is a pile of dusty beetle crap of approximately the same volume, then I'd say yes. That had to be one hungry beetle though. :D Wilkey

Happy birthday, Tom! CP would not be what it is without your considered guidance, strong example, and great love for the hobby. Best, Wilkey

Daryl, I'll keep your father in my thoughts for a full and speedy recovery. Wilkey

Some of the most interesting counterfeit specimens I've received came from the sandbox. If they're on-base, like Snoozer said, that'd be pretty unbelievable. Just off-base though, and you will probably find a mix of authentic and counterfeit. In the latter case, expect quality to be marginal due...
