Good morning, friends.
Morning Mayor, did you sleep outside in a tent last night?
I sure didn't.  I'm an air condition gypsy.

Good morning, friends.
good morning Tony.
Hiya Dean.  Sounds like you're having fun, minus the sand gnats.  Glad to read about it.

Dear Dean, 

I'm on vacation right now, and you know what they say... when the cat's away the mice will play.   Simple request to my sales team - pick something really good, get a little crazy with the price, snap a pretty picture, and email your best customers all about it.  Welp, as you can see below - they went BAT-CRAP INSANE.  Luckily for you, I'm gonna let 'er rip for a few good reasons I'll explain after I drop their dirty work on your desktop:

"My Uzi Weighs Actually About 2lbs" Sampler (reg. price $220)

30 of Drew Estates' Most Popular Blends for $89.99 plus free shipping! (<$3 a pop!)

 Includes six each of the following:
Liga Privada Undercrown (5"x54)
Nica Rustica  "El Brujito" (6"x52)
My Uzi Weighs a Ton (5"x60)
MUWAT Kentucky Fire Cured (5"x56)
Joya de Nicaragua Antanos (4.5"x52)

#1 - In all fairness to the team, I wasn't very specific about the specifics.
#2 - I'm the same ol' non-confrontational fella who you've grown to love like not immediately delete his emails, why should I start pitching a fuss now?  I'm not even on the clock.
#3 - This offer is probably going to win the 2015 "Best Deal I Didn't Come Up With or Officially Approve (but I will still take any/all credit if any compliments or appreciation is bestowed in any way, shape, or form)" Award.  I don't want to get in the way of that kind of prestige.
#4 - Finally, while not unusual, no one at the office is returning my calls or texts.  WTF. SMH. FML.  

So, guess what?  I'm not gonna fight this and well, heck you shouldn't either!  Go with the flow, get just one or get a ton, 'cuz this sampler is soon going on a permanent vacation of it's own. 

Reply back now if you want this deal.  As long as it's in stock, your order will get placed ASAP, even though I'm on vacay.  What can I say?  I'm dedicated (and probably should be medicated).

If you are interested in taking advantage of this deal, simply reply to this email. I will use the same card as your last order and ship to the same address unless you indicate otherwise. Feel free to ask me any questions you may have regarding this special deal. Shipping is free! Thank you as always.

Or all 3, but Tony does not get his love notes either so maybe a NJ thing.

On the topic of travel, I am taking the warden on an 8  day fishinig trip down in the Caribean next month and wondering the best way to carry a dozen or so cigars on the plane.  Most of my trips are short stays and I just put 2 or 3 in a zip lock but for 8 days not sure.    40th anniversary and her birthday so why not go fishing somewhere that has no tv, no internet and no cell service?  Sort of narrows down the activities the way I figure.   Just so they don't have sandgnatS!

I know not everybody is a fan of DE Underbrush, but The Undercrown Shade is a Connie I am interested in giving a try.

Zip lock with a humi pack works just fine.  If I'm bringing a decent amount, I usually bring my 5X travel humi and one or two bags.  Works out fine for a week or so.
