    At least they were honest. I'd be pissed if they gave you the run around.

    I just checked the status again and it says:
    Delivery exception
    Future Delivery Requested.
    Maybe Fedex got a hold of my target?

    It was probably updated after your call when they realized that they got a hold of your target but forgot to update the tracking info and put the box on the truck. I think we'll see a safe delivery tomorrow.

    No kidding it would be hard with all those ticks, you drew the short straw on targets this round. :stuck_out_tongue: Luckily you came up with such a fine box anyone would be happy to receive it.

    Sweet! Glad everything made it safe. I haven't tried the Bourbon LTM Porter yet but got another one in the cellar tempting me!

    Bonus for me is that I've only tried the Grande Noirceur and the Lupulus. Everything else is brand new to me. Can't wait to try them all.
