Re: One Year Ago
 

one year ago I would never have thought that I would go to the US for a vacation just to meet a lot of inmates. The US was never high on my "to visit" list, but now I know that I will return to that part of the world (hopefully) many many times to smoke cigars and share stories with all the friends that I made.

Re: One Year Ago
 

That pretty well sums it up for me. :)

Thanks to all here for making this the place it is.

Happy Anniversary Everyone:tu (Or Birthday)

Re: One Year Ago
 

This place is as much a part of me as my physical home. And by extension, you are all like family with all the metaphorical references that implies.

Happy anniversary, CA!

Re: One Year Ago
 

When I think about where we were a year plus week ago and compare it to where we are now, I can only calmly shake my head and mutter "wow". (old age will do that to you. :))


Seriously, The TOE started out on this journey with enthusiasm and optimism. Little did we know how fast the Asylum would grow and how comfortable this place would become. Even today, as I reflect on the past year, I am in awe of my fellow admins and each and every member - including you, Al. ;)

Thanks to everyone for making CA a home.

I look forward to what the next year will bring.

As usual, Dave hit the nail on the head.

I feel privileged to have been involved in what I think is a very special thing.

And I can't wait until there's a thread titled "It was twenty years ago today..."

Happy Birthday CA...I love this place

Re: One Year Ago
 

Truly honored to be a part of the Eleven and just as honored to be in the company of all the great members of Cigar Asylum. A special thanks to the nuts that fill the wards of this institution. I'd say we've had a pretty decent first year. I was onboard with what James said about 20 years until I realized how old I'd be then. If its all the same to yens I hope that 20 takes a while. :r

Well said Dave.

Re: One Year Ago
 

Honestly, thanks to all the members here and the Team of Eleven. What a great place to come and share a common passion for cigars:tu

Re: One Year Ago
 

One year ago I was trying to digest the news of The Jungle's sale, knowing it wouldn't be the same anymore...realizing a great community was about to disappear and wondering where the hell I was going to go.

Then I got a PM from one of the 11 with the simple title "Psst" and a linky inside...and then I knew.

Thank You and Happy Anniversary to the ToE and all here who've made the Asylum a second home!
