Folks, since it was far enough in advance, I hope none of you have made plans to attend on June 10th. I was just informed by the wife that her Relay For Life Cancer benefit is that weekend. I want to move the sit down to June 17th, Saturday. Please post here if this weekend will or will not work. I want to get a majority to see if this weekend will work, or if another weekend in June will bw better. I am reserving a block in the Hampton Inn, in Commerce Twp, Mi. They are opening up this month, so everyone let me know if you will need a room.
 
That weekend looks ok to me, it's just a question of whether I'll be able to afford it. We shall see. I really want to be there.

You could always sell the rights to your production company :wink:

P.S. Sorry for posting the above without your permission
 
I was waiting for someone to do that!!!! Awesome Axe!
 
Cigar.com is going to have some type of sponsorship, but it is probably going to be for the sporting clays/skeet shoot. I still have to work on that, that is if we have enough people. It would be cool to have teams. Maybe even a paintball tourney. We have an indoor arena here about two miles from me called "Atomix".
 
Sweet...a paintball gun is something I actually have, but will they allow it on a plane? I might have to drive up.
 
Oops, as far as rooms, they haven't opened the hotel yet. I am trying to get a block of rooms, but my guess it is gonna be around 50-70 a night? I have a spare bedroom and my office for someone to stay. If you choose the office, you will have to sleep in the tanning bed. :lol:
 
Capt. Capt. Capt.

How many times did I have to mention I needed a paintball field nearby to ...um....JUSTIFY my excursion to MI? Mmmm.

And then to find out ATOMIX is right next door. For SHAME! (And to think, I was trying to convince my partner to drive 4.5 hours to Challenge Park as a justification!)
 
Ron, I told you that when you first joined!!! They are a pretty big place, and from what I have heard the Toarmina's, sp? are a kick a$$ team.
 
Ya know Capt, my time is valuable. I mean with the book signings and press interviews its gonna be hard. And now you're telling me I gotta convince the Prime Minister of Japan that he can close the case without me? What the hell, world peace can wait.

Seriously though, I'll find a way even if something comes up.
 
ANOTHER UPDATE

First Let me apologize for not being around much. My Dad is almost finished with his treatments, and I have been very busy. For those who have cigars waiting from me, I PROMISE to have them out soon!

The sit down is scheduled still, for June 17th, around 4 PM. I really need a final count of who is showing up. I know there are a few from here, and 6 from Cigar Syndicate. Please reply if you are coming. Thanks to Alex, who has helped me get about 4-5 sponsors for this event. Anyone who is coming from out of town, I can get you a hotel to stay at, or you can stay at the house, but the house is filling up fast. :wink: I hope to see you all there!! I don't think the hot tub will be in by then, the tanning bed is available!! Ryan
 
Good to see you, Capt. It's always brighter in here with you on board. No, that wasn't a pun, folks. No sly reference to his occupation.

Hang in there, bro. Hope all's well. Stay strong.
