Let me tell you something about cutter......

I just wanted you to have something to enjoy when you deploy my friend. You make it possible so I can live in freedom and be able to worry about finding cigars.

Something I am gonna do is the day you smoke that Forbidden you have when you come back home is smoke one that I have with you in tribute to those who never made it back. Those men and women that sacrifice so we don't have to fear if we are gonna have an IED go off as we are driving to work, or when we take our kids to thier activities.

I think we should all make an agreement to smoke one of the best sticks we have to honor those that make life in the USA possible.

Cutter,

I think we should make that forum wide. Whenever DD get's back we should all set aside a day and time of day to simply smoke one of our best smokes to honor all of the young men and women who were unable to make it home.

A Tribute smoke if you will. Then we can all give the best reviews ever on what we smoked and write about what we reflected on when we had that smoke. What do you think DD and Cutter?

All of us BOTL will be smoking and reflecting at the same time. I am sorry but there is sentimental side of me that thinks that would be awesome.

I don't know what to say.

Thank you for the sentiment. That sounds like a great idea.

I'll know at least 2 weeks before I come home, the EXACT day.

I have an idea, if everyone's on board with this. Pick the best stick you have or your favorite, smoke it, take a picture of you smoking it, write a review and what you were thinking about at that moment. When everyone is done, they can send me the pic and review. I can have base repro make a book out of it.

We'll dedicate it to all of the troops that are still there fighting and the ones that never made it back.

It shouldn't cost anything and if it does, it would be minimal.

Let me know what you think and I'll check to see if it's possible here on my end.



Thanks again, cutter, for the outstanding pkg!

And thank you both for the tribute idea, cutter and coastal.

End of Sept / early Oct

How have you been? Haven't heard from you in a while.
 
I'm in! The book idea sounds awesome to me.

BTW Sleeper - I won't do ANYTHING for an opus, but pretty close.
 
You can definately count me in. I have very close friends over in the sandbox right now and pray for them ever day.

Yo - been "busy" and by busy I mean:

Tupolev: Inquire of engineering whether it is possible to go to 105 percent on the reactor.
Yuri: Engineering says 105 percent is possible but not recommended

Well, I've been going at 110% and I'm getting beat. So, I'm taking a forced break and spending a bit of time doing nothing.

But it's all good - overall everything is going well - wife is good, dog is good, cat is - well - a cat.

Hopefully I'll be able to wrap everything up soon - haven't been able to get up to Vince's Qtr Deck in too long!

Hope you're doing well!
 
+1 on the book idea, GREAT concept!
I'm in, and I will personally cover any book expenses. No way a Marine back from the war is paying for s#%&, not on my watch anyway.
