[MisterBadger]

My secret Santa was that British Badger, ha ha.! Who would've guessed?
And wow, ODF, Bold Kentucky, Nightcap, Majestic from an unknown to me called Wilsons of Sharrow, pigtail, and Black Irish Twist. Some favorites of mine, and a new one. Some stem polish, and a briar polish to keep my pipes all shiny on the outside, Pipecleaners to keep them shiny on the inside. And a really nice card written in British.

Thank you Mr. Badger. I’m surprised and happy. I hope yours gets to you as fast as yours.

Som besths to everyone!

Edit: I should have tagged @MisterBadger … thank you again.

@cosmicfolklore - You have no idea how astonished and delighted I am to have found a blend that was actually unkown to you :-D I only hope it meets with your approval. Meanwhile, I await the results of the glacial process of UK Customs & Excise, and of the underpaid, overworked heroes of the Royal Mail (or as it's sometimes known around here, Y Post Brenhinol...

Reminds me of the year my sister and I sneaked downstairs in the middle of the night Christmas morning and spotted a package that wasn't there the day before - the shape convinced us we were getting our own TV - my parents never let us forget our reactions when we opened it and it was an aquarium with a light on it, lol.

I have plenty of drills anyway. Besides I can write tools off.

Special delivery today! Thank you Santa! Two of my favorite tobaccos and two "new to me" cigars that look very good (considering they come from AJ Fernandez and Espinosa, they gotta be good)! God bless you Secret Santa!

A side note, after much delay and difficulty with acquiring the goods when I thought I had received the green light, some sorry sucker's package is on the way officially now!

I know nothing about snuff, but that is a terrific selection of tobacco!

Kudos to the sender and congrats to the recipient!

Side note. I keep seeing Som Besths so I turned on the Google machine.

I kept wondering why everyone was saying Sum Bitch to each other, but what I found was more disturbing.

I learned about butt cracks and soap side quests.

So of course I stopped reading because I knew you were my people.

Also, the best soap ever made for getting out the grunge is Axe Dragon Skin (discontinued , but I have three cases left) After that I use Dr. Bronners.

It is undefeated for getting the fire dust and shit out of your skin.

Now back to calling each other Sum Bitch

The USPS Forklift Service just left. At first, I thought it must be my monthly order of broken dreams, expired notions and outdated ideals, but no!


This will wait until the first night of Hanukkah, which is ten days before Christmas this year.

Or will it?
