Brother of the Month - June 2005 [tobby4]

[Eric]

June was a fast month, one that seemed to really fly by quickly. We launched the BOTL Shop (http://www.cafepress.com) with a few shirts for sale. If anyone wants to see any of the other items CP offers available at the shop, drop me a line and I'll get that added.

We also completed the The Scarecrow Fund (http://forums.cigarweekly.com/viewtopic.php?t=105828) fundraiser that coincided with the launch of the shop. We raised $100 total, thanks to those who have purchased a shirt.

A huge thank you to Wasch_24, Jwrussell and Stoagies&Hoagies for their involvement in raising even more for The Scarecrow Fund. And thank you to smokem94 for his currently ongoing auction. :thumbsup:

Now... onto the voting

Aight I am going to start this off by saying that i dont want to sound sentimental and all that But....

I really do appreciate the nomination for the third month in a row, This place is slowly becoming a home away from home, i catch myself posting even when i have not smoked a cigar in a few weeks... It is the friendships that i come back daily for, there are guys on here that i talk to more than i talk to my friends that i grew up with...

Ok thats it I am done being nice and all that shit, but seriously thanks, i really do appreciate it and if i win somebody will be losing a mailbox.... :seesaw: :seesaw: :seesaw: :seesaw:

[Wasch_24]

:seesaw: :hysterica

[Kurtdesign1]

I am truly honored to be among all these great brothers. I've dealt with many of them personally and could not be surrounded by a better group. Now the problem is deciding which one of them is most worthy of a vote.

[jeffz]

Congratulations to all the nominees!

[tobby4]

I have no problem calling some shots..... :rolling: :rolling:

[Wasch_24]

Pretty tight race fellas...let's get some more votes foks! :thumbsup:

[Eric]

Pretty tight race fellas...let's get some more votes foks! :thumbsup:

Agreed. If we can get 50 brothers to tell us how many years they have been smoking cigars, then we should have as many votes for BoM IMO.

[smokem94]

I am not worthy! I am not worthy! :help:

[Johnny7]

I've put in my vote, next time if all candidates want to send me cigars i'm sure I can be swayed! Oooopps, did I say that thought out loud!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Eric]

Looks like we have tie right now, but this is anyone's BoM really. :wink: Only 4 more hours of voting left!

[tobby4]

damn... a tight one guys...(i had to stop myself from the sex jokes in the voting)....

[Jwrussell]

Come on folks, only 35 votes? Get yer vote in!

[Wasch_24]

Whoa...what happens in a tie?

[tobby4]

well i am not worthy of this so we will see....

[Jwrussell]

As I remember it goes to the admin for a final vote.

[Wasch_24]

I'm going to save my vote for the last minute next time. :razz:

[tobby4]

come on you know that there is somebody out there that has not voted.... Break the tie......

[Eric]

Wow, a tie! That's a BOTL-first :smile:

As per the original BoM guideline (thread since archived).

In case of a tie, a moderators majority runoff vote will determine the BoM.

Dave, John, Brian & Jesse please submit your runoff vote to me via PM.

Once I collect the runoff votes, I will announce the June 2005 Brother of the Month.

[Wasch_24]

Wow! Good luck Mike and Clay!

Good thing I have both of your addy's! :seesaw:

[Jwrussell]

[Jwrussell]

Sorry Smokem' but I have a feeling you are SOL there. I think he feels left out from me and Hal hitting you at the same time. Better reinforce that mailbox.
