    The whole thing? Or the pathway the clues are going? :grinning:

    And if you did get the whole Kit & Kabootle and it DOESN'T point to you. BM me to verify and please don't give it away to the target.

    Hint 1 - shipping south
    Hint 2 - I have been in other BIFs with my target, though I've never sent anything to them.

    Hint 3 - Shipping to a state partially bordered by at least one large body of water.
    Hint 4 - Target does not have what is arguably the most famous (and highest ranked) stout produced in my state on his wants. Too bad, you're probably getting one anyway. Especially if you like this post.

    Does said target have the opportunity to buy said most famous stout in their market? I guess I should have that ticked as a perma-want but I don't think you're sending to me.

    Update for information purposes only. Someone who shall remain nameless is right on track with my hints up to hint #14 or #15 :rolling_eyes:

    My target received a box of goodies today, and isn't generally active here. Hoping he will make the connection and come'a'runnin'

    This will be my final hint (maybe?): I suspect my target suspects me!

    Dear Target,

    I don't know who you are (personally). I don't know what you want (well, aside from your wants list lol). If you are looking for warmer shipping temperatures, I can tell you I don't control the weather (true!). But what I do have are a very particular set of beers, beers I have acquired over a very long (ha, roughly 2 years) trading career. If you ignore this post now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you, I will not pursue you (eh...I'll probably still F up your porch's world). But if you like this post, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will totally send you some delicious beer. Cheers!

    Hint: According to BA - my target's birthday is in the first half of the year.

    Hint 3:

    The number of letters N in the name of my target's state satisfies the following inequalities:

    15N +20 > 65 + 6N

    and

    -3N - 13 < 31 -7N
