msandoval's Sending Me a CARE Pack! Pics When it Arrives...

[simnettpratt]

Mike Sandoval (msandoval858) just mailed me a CARE pack! Remember, I'm the windfall guy who was given maybe sixty pounds of tobacco six months ago, and have publicly stated for no one ever to Secret Santa me, and he sent it anyway. He's the guy that came by the house for some smoking and scotch, and we traded a bit of tobacco.
My favorite he gave me was GLP's Abingdon, a rich, robust and full Balkan, with Latakia, Oriental, Turkish and Virginia tobaccos. He just sent some of that, and some other tobacco I haven't tried, but will almost surely love. Pretty sweet gang. Thank you Sandyman!
Hey Mike, if you can manage swinging by for a Cowboys game party, I just put the entire cellar on the breakfast bar, and you can take your pick.
Does piping make folks generous, or do pipes simply attract generous people?

Sweet deal, congrats and enjoy bro. You deserve it.

Does piping make folks generous, or do pipes simply attract generous people?

I think it is a solid mixture of both, but i know i have yet to encounter an asshole and could not speak more highly of the piping community and its good nature and generosity.

Did you also talk DE shaving with him as well???? You could get more than just tobacco

Well, he brought a bottle of 12-year old MacAllan and I don't seem to remember everything we talked about. I however, am a plebe who uses plastic disposable razors. That said, I collect knives, and the top side of my left forearm is usually bald because that's how I know when I'm done
His shaving101 website is very well done, I must say.

I haven't even gotten started on getting David in to the luxury of shaving the old school way, but I'll get there
As I said before, he was too generous with me and gave away too much good stuff. Time for a little payback :twisted:

If you can teach me how to shave with my Ka Bar I'll take that. What? Yeah, single, why?

 

[simnettpratt]

Post Office says Saturday. He sent it Priority Mail, which was pretty cool and above and beyond. But Saturday's not NOW! Damnit.
