Good morning/afternoon everyone. Busy morning here.
Morning, Steve.

Hey, Bret. Made you work yesterday, huh? Doing the same for me today.
One eye on the Jam, the other trying to keep up here... If that's possible.

Morning, muchachos.  Concrete pouring day yesterday, so no banter time.  What'd I miss?
\\\\Just got here.....mornin' Bret. Jam at CI
And it's now easier than ever to just go back and read through the drivel from past days, should you want to for some bizarr-o reason.
Uh, you mean here or at CI?
Here.  Sorry, I'm a little out of it today.  Two consecutive late nights for me, gonna need a steady diet of caffeine and nicotine to make it through the evening.  Must be what it feels like on a crab fishing boat in Alaska.

Why, so there is!  And me with a little bit of cash today.  Not much, some.  But before I get enticed by anything there...Joe, what's the killer deal of the day?
Nothing new that I know of, just got those CI and Famous coupon codes to use should something pop up.  I could apply CI's code to some Papas Fritas still in my cart, would get 'em down to $14/tin with a purchase of 2+ lots.  Also considering the warehouse clearance code on the Oliva V #4s, which makes them just a little cheaper than they've been for the past couple weeks (30% off instead of the normal 20 or 25%).  And there's the $40 Famous code that expires this weekend, though I think I'm safe from temptation with that one.

Well, minus the hypothermia and the awareness that you could be maimed or killed in a heartbeat...yeah.

Spectre robs just arrived from the sis.  Man, even through the cello you can smell that lataka or whatever it's called.
Sure can, Morning Mark.  Love that smell!  Didn't think it came across much in the flavors, or at least not as much as the smell would indicate, but it's a nice "curve ball" in the rotation.  If you enjoy it I would recommend the MUWAT Kentucky Fire Cured.  More Latakia flavor from what I'm used to with pipes.  But if you generally don't like latakia, I would avoid the KFC at all costs.

Had a Spectre courtsey of Travelin' Dave when he was down here last and enjoyed it.  And you're right, don't recall the taste being quite as significant as the unlit aroma.  Haven't tried the KFC, but from what I've read, think I'll stick with the Spectre.

Right?  But that's the only difference.  Otherwise, same thing.  Ha!  Always said I'd love to tag along for a fishing trip but would need a guarantee that I wouldn't be seriously injured or killed.  Basically, I'd want to sit in the cabin and smoke cigars with the captain the whole time.

Weird thing is, when I adde an older one that I've had saved in my cart for months from a previous Jam, the code works.  Typical CI wackiness.

Well, mostly supervising...which is to say, answering questions.  "You want it wider?"  "Can we use your hose?"  "Could you move your Suburban?" "Nice bike, that a Fat Boy?" "Can you give the cement truck directions to get here?"

It's a dirty job, but someone hadda do it.

So, same way he rides a bike then. Whatever puts a smile on his face.

With the seat removed... like the steering wheel.

Well, I'm glad it works for someone. Fuckin' CI... I'd have bought more shit, dumbasses.

I'm sure it was the "our prices are already so low, we'd be losing money" excuse for the restricted list.

The pitching of the boat plays havoc with smoking.  If you want to smoke with the captain, come up to Seattle for a visit some July.  We'll take you out sailing.  It's warmer, more sun, you don't have to spend the first few days puking, and we stock better booze and cigars than you'll get on a fishing boat.  And if you want, we can give you the tour of fisherman's terminal, where at that time of year you can see the boats from the tv show.

Well, I can't speak for them, but I think a lot of that sort of thing is mandated by the manufacturer.  CI chooses to word it stupidly, like they're some kinda hero, but it's not always their 'fault'.

I remember when I interned with a minor league baseball team and I was working as a fill-in Director of Merchandising while they were hiring someone else.  I tried clearing out all sorts of old shit with old logos and whatnot just to bring in cash from stuff that was just collecting dust in the warehouse.  One of my 'blowout' items were New Era fitted hats.  Can't remember what I was asking for them but it was real low, like $10.  Someone from NE must've seen it because I got a nasty letting saying I was not to sell this particular product below a certain dollar amount or they'd pull the account entirely.  Called it price integrity or something like that?  Basically didn't want to be associated with a "cheap" hat.
