    Btw, did you have any inkling before that last clue or not?

    My cousin and one of my brothers worked for UPS for awhile. He said size costs more than weight because they are more concerned about how much plane/truck space you are occupying. He told me one of his supervisors said they were to overstuff the plane because they would bounce it down the runway till it gets in the air.

    I never really got a solid rejection or confirmation for my guess, but I have been noticing that I seem to meet all of @jhavs requirements

    I see, I even looked at my wants but missed that being on there.

    A man of my intellect, with my deductive skills?

    I didn’t have a f*cking clue.

    Although the number of Fortune 500 companies triggered me a bit, I apparently got distracted and decided a Californian was my sender on circumstantial evidence only.

    You did VERY well. I am honored to be your target.

    Looks like you are still in by my count. See if this helps.

    Hint #13 - My target rated an old school, pillar of an IPA from the midwest that would be found on the Beers Of Fame list higher than me.

    My box is still stuck in limbo somewhere :slight_frown::worried:so more clues! I see quite a few of you are starting to piece things together. Not me, but other people are...


    Random bonus hint #4: You are (in my opinion, at least) both the most- and the least-logical target for me.

    Random bonus hint #5: In the above hint, I am not referring to geographic placement


    ______________________________________

    Hint #1: At least one of your future beers (or its cap) is in my fridge.

    Hint #2: The vast, vast majority of what you (whoever you are) get from me (whoever I am) will be labeled in French.

    Hint #3: You have the same first name as a good friend of mine. You don't live where he does, though.

    Hint #4:
    As far as I can tell from searching your reviewed beers you'll be receiving all beers that are new to you. Possibly also one that is equivalent to "gently used".

    Hint #5: You'll be getting your box in the mail. Hopefully... (soon, too)

    Hint (#6): You will be getting 3-5 beers in the top 100 for Canada. You have had at least one beer off of said list in your life. I am not sending any Unibroue.

    Hint #7: I was scared when I saw.

    Hint #8:
    I've quoted you a few times in a few days, but in an unusual way.

    ================================

    Random bonus hint #1: Tracking your package is stressing me out in a big way...:grimacing:
    • (Unfortunately, this is still the case....:confused::confused::slight_frown::slight_frown:)
    Random bonus hint #2: If it ever leaves purgatory it will be heading WNW.

    Random bonus hint #3: I have eliminated you as my sender. I have no way of knowing whether or not you have seen my hints; however, you have been in this thread a handful of times.
