Promoted

[garyovich]

Finally got promoted yesterday after stagnating on the promotion list since March. Thinking of celebrating by splurging on a pipe I wouldn't normally buy. Perhaps a birthyear dunhill (1979) or maybe an old new stock Taylor. Anyway, just wanted to brag a little bit.

Congrats dude!

Congrats Gary, you should definitely treat yourself.

 

[garyovich]

Yup, been watching that one since it posted. I watch all the 1979s but haven't been motivated enough to try to win one yet. That is a nice one though.

 

[dervis]

Congrats for sure. Deserve a treat with a little special PAD.

Major congrats... I say a pipe is definitely in order.

That Dunnie is beautiful!

Congrats Gary, looks like your hard work has been rewarded, I believe you should buy whatever pipe so when you get older you will have a milestone reminder, The old cajun

Its so nice to get a promotion.

Thanks for the kind words all, for those that don't know I'm in the military. I made my current rank pretty quickly, it will be a few years before I get a chance to celebrate another one.
Cajun, that's exactly what I'm thinking. I'm at the point where I have a large enough rotation that buying new pipes "just because" is hard to justify. I think from here on out I will only buy higher end pipes to commemorate certain events.

Congratulations are in order, sir! I really like your idea of a birthyear pipe and I can't think of many better ways to reward oneself than a Dunhill 8)
