    As the winner of Part 4 by Jose2412, I am keeping this alive. Took me a while to start this as I was waiting for there to not be as many LIFs going, but damn BA is full of generous people.

    Here are the rules from Part 1:

    Please only participate in this LIF if you can start your own LIF in a reasonable timeframe. Your LIF can be whatever type of competition you want it to be, the only rule of mine you have to follow is players from your state and previous winner’s states are not eligible for the contest. I'm starting this with a six bottle styro shipper, let's see how long it holds up. Now, onto the game:

    States Not eligible are:
    CA, MI, IL, NY

    I will even allow HI and AK! Though I might not be pulling for you... also don't tell my wife. I figure since I represent one of the "cheaper" states for shipping to these areas I might as well try. KEEP IN MIND, if you win you do have to keep this going.

    I'm attempting to keep this state-related due to the topic of the LIF. Some of my questions can be answered with a little hunting around, but not all of them. Also, standard one guess per hint. Let's try to wrap this up by this weekend so I can drop the box off Sunday night.

    The first person to answer the following questions wins this LIF:

    1) What three states have I lived in?
    2) What college did I graduate from?
    3) Where did my wife live for a year? (City and Country :wink:)
    4) Where is friend moving to (City, State)

    I was going to play, but CA residents are not allowed!
    Imagine how tough it will be to find participants when this thing is narrowed down to just a few eligible states!

    dying down again. Time for more hints.

    Some of you have been doing some great homework/investigating. Unfortunately #4 was kind of a trick as I have numerous friends, 6, who are leaving town in a 6 week time frame. This person is bummed to be going back to where he is originally from due to the beer scene. Though this state has picked up in the recent years and is close to an area that is supposedly one of the best beer places.

    No one is close on #5, not even the right continent.
