    I was expecting more of a presentation or a TED talk, but what I got was essentially one of our Vherfs except with Pete on there and people asking him some questions. The rest was BSing and messing around.

    I missed a third of it due to work calls and just bowed out when it dwindled down to people that were Pete groupies then he knew on a first name basis and toured the factory, etc.

    I'm not a big celebrity worship kinda guy, so that angle wasn't really there for me. Honestly Pete didn't act like that at all, but some of those guys would have had his baby. I did like industry discussion stuff.

    If you needed me I'd have been there big guy. I didn't see it until later when I logged on. They'd have probably tossed me anyways for not being SNS. Best one that I was on was with Noel Rojas. He was just having a cigar with the boys. Yes some tech talk but alot of just b/s about anything and everything. He doesn't quite have the groupies Pete does though.

    Not sure if u meant me or the other Kevin, but I work 2nd shift (i have some downtime, thats why i can be active on here haha), so would’ve been a no-go for me. Appreciate that u would consider me as a representative (again, if u meant me…)

    Also, I gotta get on a VHerf with u guys first! Im pretty damn shy but u guys have me coming out of my shell a bit.

    Pretty damn cool of Pete tho- shows he really does care and is a decent guy

    You wouldn't want me going on for you with the ticket in your name, dawg. I'd clown around ane tell Pete that, I, TJ from CigarBum, have his face tattoo'd on my ass, always dreamed of meeting him and that I believe we could be BFFs.

    I met Pete a while back on a cruise. I just got in the cigar lounge when he was almost done. He seemed like a nice guy we spoke for a little bit, got a picture with him and parted ways. Saw him again in passing we recognized each other and kept it moving. Wish I had the tattoo idea then Zoom with KC Johnson, Dan Welsh and Pete Johnson

    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.
