    I'm always glad no one asks me about my olive oil business. P.O.O. would be an interesting conversation to have with FedEx workers.

    I dropped off a box headed to @Dicers this past Tuesday. The guy looks at the box which is the typical 6 shipper box and says "Shipping wine, huh?" I quickly responded and said "Nope....I actually convert beer bottles and wine bottles into candles and sell them online." He said cool and took the box without question. Had me nervous for a second.

    I have no idea what the difference is, but I'm sure the one coming out soon will also be amazing. Even after the 'main event' the next day, I'm still in awe of all that you opened that evening.

    Ol Texas done laid down the hammer on me. @end_27 tells me I won his St. Baldrick's LIF, to which I responded, "that was a LIF?" To which he responded, "shut the f up hoss, I wanna send you some beers!" To which I responded "..." trying not to poke the bear. I think I poked the bear.

    Hop Juju! x 2
    KBS (there 2013 written in sharpie on the side, but who the f knows what that means???)
    Bourbon Barrell Mayan Mocha (Oddsides is the shit...stoked!)
    BBPt5 x 2 (soooooooooo good!!!)
    Galaxy Hero (my favorite hero...other than Ant Man)
    Mean Gene (Okerlund!!!)
    Deth's Tar (Deeeeeeth)
    Bean Gene (Coffee Okerlund!!!)
    Half Acre Tittay!
    Dream Big St. Baldrick's Shirt (which I'll be wearing proudly!)
    Revolution coasters

    Sadly, a very beautiful tittay (KBS tulip!!!) was the victim of just pure bad luck. This box was packed like Fort F'n Knox and the glass was stuffed, paper wrapped, bubble wrapped and placed in the box where nothing was pressing on it. Shipping glass is dicey at times I guess, but I'll pour out some KBS (not really, I would never do that) for my fallen homie!

    Derek as you all know was, is, and will continue to be the man. And to be the man...you've got to smell what the Rock...suck it!

    Good: I hit 5,000 likes today compliments of @RayOhioFelton

    Bad: My beer points, which I was proud of keeping at the notable level of 420, have now increased to 495. A sad day in beer point history.

    Edit: It's amazing how my post count is only 45 but I have over 5000 likes. Those 45 posts must have been chock full of useful information. That's 111 likes per post. :wink:

    You know you got a badass local beer store, when you can call them during the day.. tell them it's a shitty one, ask what came in, and have them put them in the cooler for you to be cold when you arrive.

    Fucking lucky to have these guys near me, and they are cool as hell to boot.

    That KBS tittay is being replaced as we speak, so I'm not worried about that. When I see you in June I will hand it to you personally all spit shined as all.
    PS: Get your wrastlin' quotes together man....very piss poor coming from the Mid-Atlantic Jim Crockett territory.

    Quite Ray, she don't know I gave her "precious" away :flushed:

    Photographic evidence coming tomorrow night after I get home. Meanwhile, here's the text I just received from my man Gary:

    "Mike!!! Look what showed up on my doorstep today!! I don't know how thank you for such a thoughtful blessing!! Amazing!! I love you man!!"

    Yep, that's a lot of exclamation points. Thanks so much Roger for giving my buddy a huge high tonight. Pern to follow.

    AT least the second time, some random, non Beer Advocate member has gotten bombed out of this group. Well done Roger!
