:lol!: JP, you're a cherished old vet, do whatever you like sir. :D Besides, there's enough Walnut interest in the pass that the tub would be quickly and happily accounted for. That little remark I made was for th new guys as a little FYI - that bag of Uncle Bob's Golden Vanilla Shag is not on par with Christmas Cheer, don't even try it :lol:

I'm not sure if PB is trying to tell us that he mailed the package or launched a preemptive nuclear strike.
er, uh.... I would classify Walnut as biological / chemical warfare. Clearly, NOT a nuclear strike........ :D

Why you hatin' on Walnut DP...lol :afro:
 
I clearly remember when I took classes for Hazardous Materials Coordinator & Weapons of Mass Effect Instructor; they devoted a large amount of time to the substance known as "WALNUT". They even have a UN Placard for it (9999-WALNUT) & A US DOT Classification standards require that all conveyances that transport this substance MUST prominently display the following in a clearly visible area on said conveyance: INHALTION HAZARD / POISON / TOXIC / CORROSIVE / DANGEROUS :p
 
Yes it was. I just got finished with a sample of Treasures of Ireland. That stuff has a great tin aroma and a pretty good smoke too for a aro. If you like a light aro this is good.

Funny thing about the box. I got home today around 6:00 pm. The box is still sitting on the front porch. So I pick it up and walk in the house. And the wife jumps me with a couple profane words wanting to know what the **** I bought off of ebay this time. SO I reminded her about the box pass I told her about last week. She said that was BS. SO I had to open it in front of her just to prove her wrong. Which I did and she appoligized. So now everything is good in da hood.

Good Idea! I would not get it at my work though, to many hands to pass through safely.

Well I took BABs to the Ol' Post Office this afternoon. The delivery confirmation # is 0309 1140 0001 4398 0100.

Thanks PB for putting this on. I had a lot of fun sampling through the great samples in the box. I did not trade any tins this go around. There was 4 tins I thought I wanted to trade for. But after looking through my sealed tins. I had at least 2 to 4 tins of every one I wanted to trade for. So instead of stock piling more of the same stuff. I though I would give someone father down the line a chance at them. It was real hard though not snag another tin of the Mac Barens No1 Scottish Blend.

I put in the box a couple of open tins and a bag of weedage to sample or what ever anyone wants to do with them.I put a open tin of Revelation and a open tin of Barking Dog. They were laying around in a zip loc bag. Someone awhile back was saying they were wanting to try these House of Winsor Blends. I also added a bag of Common Teal from the Bufflehead Shop. Someone sent me this a couple years ago. It was never a favorite of mine but a good smoke every once in a while. Although it does smell good in the bag.

I sampled a couple of blends in the box:
1. Treasures of Ireland, A great aro smells good in the tin and room note. If you like a mild aro try this one

2. Walnut, I just had try sample this one. This blend was not near as bad as most people say. I don't think I will buy any of this but if I was offered any I would take it.

3. H&H Vintage Siran, This stuff was great. I loved it and will definitely get some of this blend.

4. I took some black rope and haunted bookshop for later. Maybe later tonight.


Thanks again PB, I really enjoyed playing along
