| That sneaky, overweight, pipe-smoking jolly old thief sneaked into my basement this morning and took my box of favorite tobaccos and stole it away! Me thinks he's going to send it to one of those nefarious bad boys on this board as a SS gift, but grabbed the wrong box. The one with the coal, every nasty aromatic ever invented, and a large box of once-used Dr. Grabow filters was the intended gift.
Who ever gets it, send it back!

| I had made up my mind to send my ole boy Walnut... But then I remembered I cleaned the Lawn Mowers before putting them up for the winter, and my paper shredder is broke...alas I don't have the components to mix up a batch. _________________ For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. - Paul |

| Got mine today. I didn't know Santa lived in Illinois?!? Is the North Pole near Cook County? I came stumbling out of a blues-bar on S. Halstead late one night and I thought the street was filled with Ompa-Lompas, but they must have been Santa's magical elves? I thought elves would smell better than these did?
What a great package, four, half-pounds of tobaccos I've never tried before. Two from Jon's Tobacco (must be a local B&M in that region?), both look like great Latakia blends. And two, 8 oz. tins of L. J. Peretti's I've wanted to try, # 500 & #D-9575. Looks like months of good puffin for this good little boy. Oh, and some pipe matches and cleaners to boot.
Very, very generous to a moderator, er, I mean, Secret Santa that I have know idea who it was. I'll tip a few in your honor under the next full moon.

Nah, I just hired a great PR agency and they put a good spin on my record. It's not the truth that counts, it's how it's presented as truth that counts. Haven't you learned anything from the last campaign?

| Been pondering about smelly Elfs.... Then it struck me... Duh! Of course Elfs are smelly, hard to take a shower when all the waters froze up.
Think instead of leaving cookies for ole fat boy I'll stick a couple rolls of heat tape out. _________________ For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. - Paul |
