I'd like to thank everyone who came out last night to imbibe from and contribute to The Box Pass.
The box moves on today or tomorrow, bearing the indelible imprint of The Lehigh Valley Pipe Club.
Oh, and in case you left early, John was awarded the First Annual Russ Ouellette Abandoned Sandwich Award. Way to go, John, you deserve that, and so much more.

We're all so proud of you...
Sorry I missed last night's conclave. I needed the time at home to take care of a few things. Hopefully next month!

Russ, the guy under the hill-to-hill bridge was very appreciative of the sandwich. Truth be told, Dan and I ate the chips in the parking lot.
I'm pretty sure the plan for the pictures was to wait till us "good looking" guys were gone so that the remaining members would not be overshadowed by our awesomeness.
As a point of order, I think we need to start a new club thread using our new official name The Lehigh Valley Pipe Club. That and the fact that the posting count is now over 200 it's time to introduce our new persona...so to speak.
Also, we need to get a list of personal emails so we can communicate outside of this forum. PM's are not a very reliable way to notify our esteemed members should we need to have a group discussion.
I'll compose the list if anyone wants to send me their email address send it to jfruh419@yahoo.com. This is also for those who wish to become members or just like to write to me because they're lonely.

The Winchester VA and Christopher Morley (Philly) clubs use a private Facebook page for communicating to club members, that works pretty well.
Thanks, Al. We're going to work on a FB page as well. Sometimes it's good to have email only communications. While we've been getting together now for 1.5 year we're still in the early stages of formalizing ourselves into a real club.
Heck, we haven't even discussed the cool merchandise we'll be developing for sale let alone the IPO down the road.
The next meeting will be focused on putting together the Green Shoe for our pitch to the street.

John and I are at odds on this. I'm pushing for quasi-governmental "authority" status for the Lehigh Valley Pipe Club, with the power to impose taxes in a special district, like Eastern Pennsylvania. The idea of using OPM to fund my cellar is appealing to me.
Good point woodsy. I think we can accomplish both with careful writing. Let me ponder how to capitalize to our advantage.
Pending my visit (which is being costed and diary-tested as I type) is there scope for me to join the LVPC as an International Member? I'm sure Dan will sponsor my application - given I have a commission with him at the moment!

Andy, we have a number of membership slots available in the Members in Exile, Incarceration or Interstellar Travel catagory. If you are interested, our Director of Finance (papipeguy) will go over the fee schedule with you. If you wish to endow a round of drinks for the monthly meeting, your application can be expedited.
Oh, I have also been informed that Zeppelin service between Heathrow and Bethlehem has been increased to three flights a week. In addition to being an exemplary pipe maker, Dan also happens to be the Zeppelin pilot, so be sure and ask for him, once you are aboard.

Thanks very much Sir - I will PM Mr Numbers straightaway. And thanks for the heads-up on Dan Dan the Zeppelin Man. I believe this is a picture of him in his (slightly scary) weekend pilot uniform:
I look forward to getting the Club colours tattooed on my arsem.
