Well fellows, I've enjoyed having this box of tobacco. I've been introduce to some blends I know I would have never got to smoke. I still consider myself a "noob" when it comes to tobacco, it hasn't been but maybe 8 months since I first smoked the tinned stuff. Before that it was those big bags from the drug stores, like toasted cavendish,cherry, etc. So, it has been a pleasure to get to sample so many different blends. I found some new likings and some not so much, my got to have it list got a little bit longer. Brandon, my friend thanks again for taking the time to put this together it's been much appreciated. I'll be shipping the box tomorrow so I'll update tomorrow night with conformation number.
 
Hey PB!!!!,
Is this box following the order listed on p.1?
If not, can we get an idea on routing?
I want to make sure that if I'm out that the Wife doesn't put it somewhere, in this diaster she calls a house, and I hold up the works by only finding it late. With a heads up, I can put up little "post its" advising HANDS OFF MY BOX OF "ENDLESS JOY"!!!!! :D

Looks good but with my bad back I would have to get the microwave up maybe put it on top of the other one just a idea.

Sorry guys ! Had a late night at work yesterday and was unable to get to a computer. I did ship it yesterday, # 0308 0660 0001 5510 3217. Postman says Ed should get it tomorrow. As for puts and takes, I sampled alot out of the box. I added some McC 2045 with about 6 or 7 yrs on it, some Greenfield and Winther White Burley that I found at an antique store. This stuff came out of an old cutter top tin unsure about the age, but I think it's some good stuff full of big ole crystals that are sweet as sugar. I also added part of a tin of Merde de Cheval. I traded a tin of Balkan Sasieni for a tin of SG Balkan Flake.
 
Good pass....

I wasn't rushing ya... Just got worried..lol... To a guy like me that's on here all day and all night its unsettling to see a guy say, 'I'll post up tommorow" and then be off the board for two days.. I sometimes forget people on here actually have life outside of BoB. :D
