Rx to me is a prescription and TX is a state. What do you mean?
I can tell you all presents have been mailed, and I'm showing six not yet marked as received, but should be soon.
So much for being lazy at the keyboard, in radio tx=transmit, rx=receive, was asking if all the packages have been sent. |

Should be getting to the point where the rx's start rolling in. Are the tx's all done now? PS Josh, finished another bowl of the Matured Virginia, it's mild to me but may require an order...just got a bag of Red Odessa today. Basil Meadows sent a tin of McCranies Red Flake with a pipe last year....pretty much spoiled me...unobtainium, a bad combination. Had I known you wanted to try red Odessa, I would have sent that as well. I have a few pounds in the cellar. I'm glad you got some though! I scoured all of your posts to try to figure out what to send, you didnt leave much of a trail for me to follow, haha. I love the matured red Virginia, I'm sure some age on it will make it wonderful. It's a good smoke, especially at $26-28 a bag. william got me hooked on red virginias, pepesdad1 added to the cause with a few samples he gave me. I absolutely love them! |

Santa dropped by package yesterday. I opened it already, but don't have the time to take pics yet. As soon as I do, I'll get it up.

Alright so after weeks of struggling to decide what to gift. I finally gave up. So I decided to do blinds man bluff. Opened the cupboard which is my cellar which I share with some of my wife's stuff. So I have packed the box and put it in the mail. The down side is that I am losing two tins of my favorite tobacco. The up side is that I am not gifting any of my wife's feminine products. |

Santa Claus came to town!! Thanks roadsdiverged It's as if he peeked into my cellar. The Stokkebyes, the Cherrybomb and the Plum Pudding are new to me, and the others are well represented in the cellar. And they all much appreciated! I have been wanting to try the Plum Pudding for a while, and it will land in a bowl, as soon as I am finished with dinner.  |

I was told by the elves that aros are not easy to pick for someone who doesnt smoke aros. But I hope you enjoy what the little guys picked out for you.

Haha, sorry Justin I just got carried away while putting my boxes together. I do the same when I send out sample packages. What starts as 2 or 3 quickly becomes 8-10. And then I keep going until I run out of room in the envelope. I know how happy I get when I have a mystery package to open when I get home, I like passing that feeling on to others |

Drat, I can't see the picture. He did send me a preview of the unfinished shape though. That is why your present took a little longer - he had to carve the pipe.

I bought two tins of that off of desolbones a couple months ago, figuring I might want to gift one. If you look on the bottom, it's 2.5 years old, so it has a little age on it. Plus, "Winter Time Flake", so apropos for the season. |

Sam, hope you were seated when you opened the packge, I could see you being floored.
Gotta ask, is that a paneled, semipaneled or am I seeing lighting brilliance?
