    I was pretty damn honest, actually:

    "A BIF is a 'Bounce it Forward' wherein participants will 'Bounce' a package with locally produced goods, such as collectible glassware, to their assigned recipient from another part of the country. In round 3, my assigned recipient is from Alaska, and shipping to that part of the country is very costly. The funds sent to me were a contribution from another member of the group to assist with that cost."

    Moo-HooChiato is totally up my alley, I'm hoping to snag a bottle of that locally, we got some allotment of Terrapin waxed bottles, but it's spotty at best.

    Hopefully if all goes well, I will pull 8 bottles atleast of the moo-hoochiato. 2 per at 4 stores. Dunno if the 5th store near me is getting it or not, if they do I will hopefully get 9-10 bottles.

    I saw the growler and thought that is a very interesting Dallas box. Fun to see how logoed growlers make their way around the US.

    Coming from a lawyer, you sir, should have been a lawyer. Well done.

    Thanks :slight_smile: Not to sound cocky, but I get that a lot.... though usually because I like to argue and bicker and I'm very pedantic.

    CNN Breaking News: More details have been released about the ISIS BIF Terror Plot. More than 25 individuals were sending funds via paypal with coded messages to fund a terror plot in which random victims were assigned as targets, and the terrorists were encouraged to send bombs to their porches. CNN has learned that at least 30 members of this terror cell have been rounded up and currently being questioned in an undisclosed location.

    Great thanks @Lehighace06

    So now I get this message.

    Dear KG,

    We are investigating a so called BIF and would like to know your involvement. I am part of a joint force including the FBI, CIA and NASCAR. We will require you to bring your PC or AP to our HQ ASAP. This is a serious issue and we hope you will DTRT and get this TCO. We will be contacting you soon TMA and GOWI.

    Don't make me be a PITA.

    Contribution sent. I think. I might have sent my entire paycheck to some lawyer in an African country.

    Pro tip: Don't day drink and try to figure out how to use PayPal for the first time. It might take you longer than originally planned.

    Isn't it though? A Night in Brussels IPA was also pretty damn tasty! Does Three Taverns do growlers? I was there earlier this year with some friends and didn't even look.

    So I missed the post by @Seanhand_atl that showed Three Taverns bottles in the links. Didn't realize they were bottling!

    I got a bottle of Quasimodo as an extra for sending some carton as extras in a trade, haven't opened it yet but planing on doing a Quad night, not sure how many quads we can actually get through before we are blind.

    Okay gentleman, I know I said 10 o'clock to close the BIF, but I've shut it down 15 minutes early. I have randomly selected a target for the Sixterhood and am now going to taunt all of you :slight_smile:

    Clue #1 - I'm shipping a state that begins with a consonant.

    *Edit - I hope you'll all be rooting for the Bears tomorrow!

Just read @CreatureComforts post in my thread in the south-atlantic part of the forum. They are bottling 2 brett beers soon, including a colab with 7venth sun!

    Clue #2 - I'm shipping to a state that has an NFL team with a winning record.

    Hmmm... I am probably out, but you could be sneaky... the only NFL team that actually resides in NY state is the Buffalo Bills.
