SmokeyTheBear Blew Me Away

[zonomo]

This AM I woke up and came to my computer and I notice a small package on my chair by my desk. I search my memory banks to think if I've ordered anything but I know for sure I haven't. Here's the back story though. Our funds are tight because recently my wife was laid off her job, 100% by surprise. For those of you that remember, the same exact thing happened to me too recently so we've been trying to be very conservative with our funds and in my case, pipe smoking is a luxury. So there is this little box... and in it are 2 absolutely exquisite little pipes. And I am not exaggerating this description - they are incredibly beautiful. One is a Meer and one is a banded brair. Also included was a tamper with a .45 ACP shell casing (another big reason for me to smile) and a few samples of great areo tobacco.
Smokey, you have really lifted my soul today. This was totally unexpected and so kind an generous of you. I can't tell you what this means to me. Thank you SmokeyTheBear - viva la Canada!

Very well done Smokey , amazing how many good people are drawn to pipe smoking. Not suprising mind you, but amazing

Great to see that there are still compassionate folks out there who act in ways that contradict today's seemingly "me, me, me" society.

Let's see a pic, sounds like some sweet swag. I've also dealt with smokey. I sent him some goodies and he responded with a very nice Trypis pipe. A great addition to our community.

Shaintiques the tamper and the Meer i got off you in a care package not to long ago I kept the wally frank and spread the love with the others. I also sent him a Zulu i got off briarbid not to long ago, nice pipe but i don't find myself reaching for it as often as i liked so it needed a new home.

 

[smokeybear]

So your Initial act of kindness has a wide ripple effect its not often you can see that happen.

Well in that case he did get a nice little meer and tamper. Hey they are yours to do with as you see fit, glad you are sharing the wealth that is what it is all about. Smoke what you like and help out the brothers. Zonomo is a great guy and sent me a very hearty sample of Hobbit's weed and Boswell's Berry cobbler awhile back. Enjoy brother!
