I don't want to down-grade anyone's puts (don't worry -- I'll put in something nice. Just as soon as I sort through my stash and figure out what's sun-grown and what isn't...) But I have a new Cigar Price Checker that I've been working on, and it shows these at Atlantic Cigars for ~$4.38...

Ok, box got here tonight. Also, my own pass came home :) Ok, figuring out my takes was a no-brainer (the baggie marked "For Misc and Misc Only" ;)), give me a day or so to figure out my puts. It's my birthday this weekend, and we're having a boatload of people over tomorrow (Friday), so I...

You know, I had this idea for a liar's pass* (soon!), but I think it might be too much of a challenge to top some of the tall-tales that happen when ol' Tone runs a pass! Well, I guess we'll just have to see what happens, eh? --- * the idea is that people would post "got it" and "sent it"...

Having never been in a pass doesn't determine if we're full -- we're far from full! Anyone who can read & follow directions is welcome in this pass. You're off to a good start! :) (...But *DO* feel free to make use of the time while you're waiting for the pass to start to introduce yourself...

I've got a new web-based Cigar Price Checker that's in public testing, now. It seems to work fairly well, although it's got a few minor bugs and some cosmetic problems. Its BIGGEST problem is that it only has site-crawlers for a few vendors. If you know Java, they're actually very easy to...

Alternate version: 1. Go to Sea 2. Bring a 16" diameter gun, or a set of 9 of them. Or 100 aircraft -- that works, too 3. Tell the Marines to relax, everything's under control 4. Drink coffee

Well, I'm having a hard time believing that we're the only cheapskates on all of CP but, so far, the only ones willing to admit it seem to be: GWS3 Smokin' Tone Mickey MacAttack and me. Nick's not sure if he's a cheapskate or not, MtPasser just likes to watch the cheapskates, TXRedneck wants...

Ooops. It may have been by my spam filter (sorry.) Please re-send with "cigar" or "pass" in the subject line. Thanks! (Newbies: please take a moment to familiarize yourself with "how to join your 1st pass." thread.)

2 days, 2 passers. I think we might just squeak by the deadline... :0 Tone: "cigars you've enjoyed" -- if you can say with a straight face that you've enjoyed some of those owls of yours...

That's 1! At this rate, we should just barely squeek in under the deadline ;)

As I'm watching all these super-premium and fancy Cuban cigars being passed hither and yon, it occurs to me that there are some really great $1 smokes that are habitually ignored in the turmoil of trying to make "a really great play." So here's my idea for a pass: * Standard pass rules apply...

Hey, those were my BEST dog rockets, man!

Probably the insurance. I was supposed to insure it, right? It came insured, so I slapped on $300 worth on the way out. I think you have to sign for insured stuff. That's been my experience, anyway. ...Either that, or they want you to explain the sloshing noises and the protruding wires... :D

<Misc bows, deeply> Thank you, thank you... Yes, that'd be me -- King of the Fast Turnaround -- as proven by DaveWF's fast-turnaround contest, which I won (see "it's in the bag" pass.) <sniff> I'm touched -- I didn't think anyone remembered... :p

Hey, start somewhere else on the West coast -- I'm waiting for a couple of boxes of GOOD cigars to arrive, so I don't have to repeat my previous embarrassment :p Give me a few days for them to arrive :)

Hey, don't forget to put in a couple of cheap sticks so us po' fo'k have something to trade... :lookup:

Yeah, it's been great! A big thanks to everyone for playing. Loved the stories, even the sad ones.

Oops. Add to those puts a Cohiba something or other (churchill sized) (ISOM) (Came out this morning, and there's this cuban cigar sitting on my kitchen table -- '"what the hell is THAT doing not in the box?!", I thought...) Ok, I'm taping this baby up and sending it back to Colorado Springs...

Yeah, yeah... hey, it's not my fault if I'm ugly AND stupid! ;) Ok, anyway -- well, sorting through my sticks, I found that I'm running a tad low at the mid-high end (<sigh> note to newbies: good cheap cigars are cool, but don't over do it. Buy some good ones, too, for trading!) Anyway, after...
