    VBS with thread-appropriate VSS (figure it out) in the background.... thanks to @Louis121 for this one -- one of the most delicious beers I have ever tasted, in my Magic Stout Glass... this is the Half Acre Big Hugs with the peel off label, so I have to post before and after-peeling labels...this one is before...

    I was thinking virtual shirt share, but since a shirt-only picture would have violated BA rules and gotten deleted, these worked well. (And yes, I actually bought it when I saw Spamalot)

    So I am one of the people who compulsively tries to figure out all the pairings (I know I'm not the only one). And I've actually been more under control this round, so if somebody says something like "my target has more wants than me" I typically wait until I've got it down to about 10 or 12 candidates before I try and check all the relevant profiles. But the thing that makes this virtually impossible is that we've STILL got so many extra boxes flying around that when I see a haul posted and think "great -- a verified sender-target pair", half the time it's still a LIF or sixterhood or sixtercanhood or horizontalhood or somethingelsehood or justaninjaboxhood. I think I've got 5 what I thought were confirmed deliveries, but I've also got at least one sender with no viable targets left. #mybrainhurts

    Hint 1- Shipping South
    Hint 2- shipping to a state that starts with a consonant and ends with a vowel
    Hint 3- my target lives in a state that is bordered by an ocean.
    Hint 4- the state I'm shipping to has at least one team that has won multiple NCAA mens basketball championships.

    Sorry -- you are new enough to not be aware, but @Kramerbarthomer (from Colorado) probably posts more Trillium than anybody else in the thread (at least until recently), and has even been known to send it to other folks. I just see Trillium pictures and assume he was involved.
