Alright gentlemen, my 1000th post is coming up already. I want to say thank you to this forum for greatly increasing my enjoyment of this hobby, and greatly increasing my credit card debt. So, I will be giving away a package to a lucky winner! Not sure what will be in it, but I've got a lot to choose from thanks to you a$$holes convincing me to try hundreds of fantastic cigars over the last many months. ;)

This contest will end AFTER I hit 1000 posts most likely. The person who guesses the day my daughter will be born will get a lovely package. If no one guesses the exact date, closest to it, I suppose. The day before would win out over the day after.
Officially she is due on April 19th, I find it incredibly unlikely she'll come on that day, but that is the official date. Other important dates in April are my birthday (the 1st!) and my wife's birthday (the 18th).
Rules: one guess per person, first person to guess a day keeps that day only for themselves obviously
Insider information: my wife is not on bed rest (thank God) and has been very healthy. If you have other questions to help you get the right day, feel free to ask!

Let the guessing begin!
-Phil

    I do! I split a box of Tatuaje Black Label Tubos and a box of Red Label Tubos around Christmas with Sandman1 - I'll have one on her birthday every year. Or if I can't wait that long - on her birthday and half birthday, lol.

    Thank you for all the kind words, gentlemen.

    Grats on both (moreso on the bundle of joy). My gut was the 17th, but I'll take the 10th.

    Heh, I think my wife will murder me if this baby comes on your day, as that would be a few days late. The contest would be forced to end if I was dead, but your guess is noted! 12 going on 18... I can only imagine. :)

    Congrats!

    Both my kids were early so I'm going with a full 2 weeks early:

    The 5th

    Good luck!
  • TatuajeVITatuajeVI Posts: 2,378 ✭
    Gentlemen, we are 4 weeks out! Today the wife and I went to the OB and had an ultrasound - last one before the big day. All is very good - she hasn't had any contractions or anything, and they baby is where she should be. Still time to get in your guesses!

    Congrats Tat! I'll lay claim to the 7th, didn't see anyone staking that out yet.
