I went the mailbox with much anticipation this evening and certainly was not disappointed.
Perhaps it is my proximity to Galveston, but I approached this Bucanero trade with the spirit of the gentleman pirate Lafitte. Apparently they do things differently in Chicago (bunch a mobsters). Penguin bombs me with a large assortment including Aston VSG, Torano 1959, JdN, FF Opus X, AF 858 SG, Partagas ISOM and so on.....Plus he threw in a cutter and cbid matches!
Well, I figured if he's not gonna play fair who can I get some advice from on how to win?
I decided to travel down the street and seek the wisdom of "the Hammer." Tom suggested that I call a special session and keep calling them as long as necessary until I win the trade. Perhaps we will have to realign the boundaries around the trade, but we can keep doing it until I look better and get my own way. So, be wary Kevin. We're not finished and if you ever come to Texas I'm afraid I'll have to place you under house arrest (where you'll smoke and drink my best:).
Thanks much my friend
