Chris - WOW

[NickDrista]

Well, I get home today and get the mail and see a package from Texas with Chris' name on it. the son a b*tch blew me away with the bomb!!!

It had a Sol cubano, Nub Maduro and a Casa Magna!!!! Man I have been waiting to try this cigar for a while and I cant find it anywhere up here!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I cant wait to try it!!!!

and again...payback will be mine...

[brcrane14]

Wow, what a great bomb! Nice work, Chris.

I have been hearing more and mroe about the Casa Magna. Im gonna have to give em a whirl when I come across em. Enjoy the score, Nick!

[chrish012]

Anytime, Nick! Apparently these are hard to come by. Priced at $5-6 per stick, tasty as hell, and a #1 rating in CA? No one anticipated the demand they're seeing right now. Old Kenny only got about a dozen boxes (in various sizes) and had to wait about 4 months on backorder to get them!

Moral of the story - i picked up some extras to share with my BOTL's, and if any of you see them anywhere, give them a shot. Definitely worth it!


Also - those showed up fast! You might leave them in your humi a few days, i left the package in my office overnight once when i forgot to ship it :(

[NickDrista]

Yes they are really hard to come by. The number 1 rating in CA definitely has something to do with it.
Thanks again though. That was a great surprise!

Wednesday I will smoke it as it is suppose to rain and I will sit on my farmers porch while watching the rain!

[EvilAsh]

Excellent job Chris, and congrats to Nick!! (who is a very deserving target!)

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the Casa Magna after you smoke it, I still haven't tried one yet :nub:

[ToolMan28]

Awesome bomb Chris!!! Congrats Nick and enjoy.

[maverick21383]

Congrats on the score Nick, nice work Chris. I have been hearing a lot about the Casa Magna as well, and Ashley brought one up for me but alas, I never got around to trading him for it. I'll have to swing by the cigar shop to grab some. Brian, possible Herf in White Marsh this week?

:popcorn:

[NickDrista]

I think I know what is going on here...I have a feeling we arent done yet with the bombs...and I know where this all stems from. I will wait and see if I am right!!!

[EBCIII]

Congrats on the Bomb Nick!! Great work Chris!

I just bought a Casa Magna. Have not tried it yet. It is now next in line.

[KnightRid]

Nice bomb! I am thinking of grabbing a Casa Magna some day to check out.

....:popcorn:

[chrish012]

OK I'm starting to get a little nervous.... there IS another bomb out there, sent the same day as Nicks, and probably hard as a rock by now :(
I'm almost positive I put the correct address, I got it off Toolman's BOTN website. :confused:

[NickDrista]

i think I know who it was sent to and that person hasnt been on here alot lately. That is if I am correct of course!!!

[maverick21383]

Ok, so, I apologize for being so absent, as work has had me quite busy, and I was away this past weekend. I haven't checked my mail very frequently lately either, but with the high humidity here in MD, I don't think this was a problem for the sticks. First I would like to thank Chris, for your generosity. I got home, and finally decided it would be wise to check the mail since it had been about a week. The mail lady probably hates me. Anyway, I open the mailbox to see a padded envelope, and it was like Christmas morning when I saw it was addressed to me and not my roommate, especially after I saw who it was from. I opened it up and took some pics today of the prize. I received:

A Don Pepin Garcia Series JJ Maduro (I've never tried this, I'm looking forward to it)
Nub Maduro (which i'm getting low on, thanks!)
Casa Magna (I've been anticipating trying one of these for a while now, thanks so much!)

I also found another package in the mail, this one addressed to me but the return address said "Koko B.Ware". I thought to myself...'What the hell?!' Upon opening, I found a stack of cigars and a letter. The letter said "Thanks again Dave for the hospitality and the awesome Nub Live after-party. Here's a little token of my appreciation. Enjoy!' Signed, Da Byrdman. Thank you so much Ashley, I really appreciate your generosity. The cigars Ashley was kind enough to gift me were:

Casa Magna (woohoo! Now I have two of them! YAHTZEE!!!)
Indian Tabac Maduro (this one has a beautiful wrapper, I can't wait to smoke it)
Bolivar Habana (I believe this might be a Cuban, Ashley can correct me if I'm wrong, and I believe it was in the top 25 cigars of the year along with the Casa Magna. I can't wait to try it...it'll have to be a special occasion)
Nub Maduro (I'm running low, thanks man!)
Nub Habano (I only have a couple left, thank you very much!)

It feels good to get cluster bombed! Thanks again Chris and Ashley, you guys are true gentlemen!

Enjoy the sticks, Dave. By the way, the Bolivar is from the "forbidden island". Looking forward to the next Nub Live meetup.

[chrish012]

Anytime, Dave! I'm just glad to know you had them and not some jerk postal worker! :)

[NickDrista]

Great work guys! Well deserved Dave!!!

[maverick21383]

Thanks again Ashley and Chris, you guys rock! I now have three cubans in my humidor, awesome! I might smoke the Bolivar and a Casa Magna this weekend with Brian, so he can try them out as well.

thanks Nick!

[EBCIII]

Congrats on the Bombs Dave! Great work on those guys! They all look tasty to me.

[maverick21383]

Thanks Beale!

[EvilAsh]

Chris and Ashley, nice work on a very deserving target!!!
Dave, enjoy those smokes buddy :nub:

Awesome job all around!

[maverick21383]

Will do, I promise!

Steve, I just realized, I never did smoke the LX2, nor the Serie V Maduro with you. I guess I'll have to keep saving them until the next time we hang out.

No problem Dave, next time for sure! :nub:

[O'Hanley]

Hell yea guys!! Reading all this has me wanting to bomb someone...just gotta figure out who. I think I may have someone in mind.

[maverick21383]

I wish I could bomb people, funds are a little tight right now. I think I'll have to get back to it around the holidays, or more likely after the holidays...sometime in January.

[Jimmie The Mum]

Very nice..

[ToolMan28]

X-Mas should be fun. I will have to come up with some ideas to put some extra fun into it.

[maverick21383]

By the way, for those of you who aren't familiar, Tim, aka ToolMan, put together a nice Bombing list with a few added features like a virtual humidor to keep track of your smokes (of which I really need to populate soon). If you're a frequent poster, or a seasoned Nublive vet, check out the link in his signature...or I'll just post it here (http://botn.midwestcigarclub.net) and you can register. It's a great way to bomb your fellow unsuspecting BOTN. Just thought I would refresh some people's memories and bring it to light for some newer folks.

Follow up on this: There is no registration for the site yet, but there will be. I have been working on it as much as I can. I keep wanting to get new stuff up, but I keep telling myself to get one task or another done first. LOL, good things will come with it I promise.

[maverick21383]

Tim, no biggie man, I know you're busy out there. Take your time, I know we all appreciate all the work you've done so far with it.

[ToolMan28]

Penta'd? LOL, I am working on it, I got about 2 weeks left of mostly busy and bored, then the new guys take over and I can basically just sit back and wait for my plane to get here. I honestly do hope to have my site up by the time I get home.

You didn't hear this from me because I'm not one to gossip, but I should be outa here in or around, about, close to but not long after.........

Well you all know I can't tell you the actual date, but I will be at Ft. Living Room by Halloween:smiley-dance:

[maverick21383]

Woohoo! Congrats Tim, I hope it all goes smooth and you're home chilling before you know it.

[ToolMan28]

the first couple of weeks will be kinda busy, everyone wants to party, plus Vegas, and making sure all the little things are taken care of. No worries though. For sure everyone will get some Vegas pics.

[skipper]

AWESOME!!!
