A favor for a friend in Galveston after Ike.....

I know I'm new here guys, but not new to cigars or to other cigar fourms and thought I would post this here as well as the other two I'm a member of....

I have a friend (Steve) that lives 8 miles inland from Galveston Island that came home to what was left of his life’s work.. His house was roofless with trees that fallen into it, flooded and looted.. He’s insured so should come out all right.. Houston’s still 60% powerless with no gas, water, generators, chainsaws or even extension cords..

This is about a fellow BOTL that out of the goodness of his heart bought and overnighted him a $400 chainsaw.. Steve only knows him through a website (VTXOA) “Motorcycle related board” All he really knows is this man loves forbidden cigars… Steve calls me to ask how he could get his hands on some.. I told him to wait until he’s back on his feet and in the mean time I will send him some in thanks for what he did for him…

My favor I’m asking of you guys is: if you would help me bomb this guy for helping Steve out in his time of need.. forbidden isn’t necessary, what ever you would like to send with a note asking if he would like to join our little family of B/SOTL..

Of course if you want to make a donation for Steve and his family that’s great, but not what I’m asking..

Please PM me or post to this thread if interested and I’ll send PM his info.. I don’t have it right now, I’m waiting on Steve to txt it to me..

FYI,

He doesn’t know I’m doing this, so it might surprise him greatly..

Thanks,
Bobby

I'm always up for a bomb, especially when the target has helped a hurricane victim (been there and done that!). Let me know the addy and the timing for when this thing goes down.

The post has already been reported for whatever action the Mods feel may or may not be necessary.

Please read the stickies.

The trading of Cuban cigars is prohibited here, as is discussion of where and how to buy them, or the sale or buying of them.

Regardless of how worthy your cause may, or may not, be, asking for free cuban cigars would appear, to me, to be just as prohibited.

He said cubans where not necessary. Don't be a prick to a new member just because you can.

Re: A favor for a friend in Galveston after Ike.....

OK I have a challenge for all of those dinging the hell out of me.

Keep dinging away but PM this guy and send as many cigars as rg points you can hit me for. Lets see if you can get me to the -1450 the backyard guy got last week.

Lets take care of a guy who looks out for others. All you BOTL''s and Harley guys get to sending him pm's to get the guy taken care of.

This is in good fun..lets keep it civil. The mods can delete if they think I am out of line. I will proudly carry the -rg if you guys will get this BOTL some smokes. He sent a chainsaw I know the generous guys on this forum can send some cigars.

Re: A favor for a friend in Galveston after Ike.....

This whole thread seems preposterous! Chainsaws, and bombs, and forbidden. Who actually lives in Galveston? What kind of chainsaw was it?

For what its worth, it is generally bad form discussing negative RG.
