| I picked up some more samples for the pass. Charles Fairmorns Lancers Slices and Black Bayou Mist, Bullseye Flake and McClelland 2030 Balkan. It is getting close, real close for launch day. _________________ Arizona, where the temperature is always warm but the pipe smoking is always cool.

I have almost everything but am waiting for one more shipment from Smoking Pipes. If "everything" goes alright I would like to ship the boxes out this Friday no later than Tuesday the 12th. I am going to start figuring out the routes tomorrow.

| Ok Gentleman, unless I get more players between now and Sunday here will be the order of the two boxes which I am calling the East and West boxes just to keep things straight in my pea brain. Hopefully I figured this correctly so that you should see either the East or West box within nine passes from the last time you had a box. I tried to keep the boxes going by the shortest possible route except the East box will need to go from New York to California in the middle of it's pass. If postage is a problem please send me a private email and I will be more than willing to give you a little help with the postage. Without further ado here is the order in which you get to go bananas. | | West | | East | | 1 | TJ | 1 | Eggman | | 2 | Puff Daddy | 2 | Jeepernick | | 3 | Tin Man | 3 | Tom Clemons | | 4 | Jhuggett | 4 | J_Rock | | 5 | Lewtang | 5 | Bigsmoker | | 6 | Carlos | 6 | Ego Archive | | 7 | F.ferrill | 7 | Pipetongue1 | | 8 | Cigargod | 8 | Dock.J.Perry | | 9 | Mr. Houston | 9 | MidnightBlues | | 10 | Eggman | 10 | TJ | | 11 | Jeepernick | 11 | Puff Daddy | | 12 | Tom Clemons | 12 | Tin Man | | 13 | J_Rock | 13 | Jhuggett | | 14 | Bigsmoker | 14 | Lewtang | | 15 | Ego Archive | 15 | Carlos | | 16 | Pipetongue1 | 16 | F.ferrill | | 17 | Dock.J.Perry | 17 | Cigargod | | 18 | MidnightBlues | 18 | Mr. Houston | | 19 | mikem | 19 | mikem |

| Just out of curiosity . . . . what happens if someone gets two boxes at the same time?  Do they need to work doubletime or would they get a few extra days to sort it all out? Not trying to stir up trouble . . . . . . . . just curious if that is a possibility. (What a troublemaker  ) |

| Hopefully the way I have scheduled the boxes (ref: chart) that should never happen. With everyone keeping the box six days plus transit time there "should" be at least nine weeks before you see the next box. If it happens we will work something out (as you suggested, probably more time with the second box). As an example; you are #3 on the West list and #10 on the East list. The only way you could end up with "both" boxes is that #2 held the West box for over nine weeks. The same scenerio should apply to everyone else's schedule. _________________ Arizona, where the temperature is always warm but the pipe smoking is always cool.

| Mike, Though it's been said far better & more eloquently than I ever could: You're the man! Thanks again for taking time out of your busy schedule to do this for the members of this group... Could there possibly be a better name for you than "The Coordinator" ? Best, Dock  _________________ I'm On Vacation. Don't Bother Me! |
