    ...I think 105 in MT was my top speed, too (Mrs. BeerGoot grew up in Billings), so I had a few years of MT high speed driving before they changed the law...

    I did some more shopping today. There were a couple beers brewed for the Ukrainian humanitarian effort. I haven’t had them myself, but if you’d like one or two of them in your box, target, I’m happy to oblige.

    Sorry to my target. Internet issues for a few days, fixed, but now I am switching providers. We'll see how that goes. Here is a recap of hints, with a new addition.

    Hint #1
    You are currently closer to Purdue than I am.

    Hint #2

    I am not shipping as far south as Hank Hill, but I am shipping further east.

    Hint #3
    I have rated/reviewed more styles than my target.


    Hint #3.5
    I have also rated/reviewed beers from more countries than my target.

    A new hint is coming, as I catch up on 5 pages from you rambunctious popinjays.:astonished:

    I don't think anybody has eliminated me as their sender via my hints, so I'll try to make things a little easier.

    First a recap:
    Hint #1 - https://www.billboard.com/charts/hot-100/1986-05-31/
    Hint #2 -
    [​IMG]

    Hint #3 - [​IMG]

    Hint #4 -


    Hint #5 - Great big fins and painted steel, man it looked just like the Batmobile
    Hint #6 - Sound of the drums, beating in my heart

    There's a theme with the six hints and that theme is relevant to one of you. I don't want to make it too obvious, so I'll expand upon the first two hints a bit.
    For hint #1 - one of the artists / bands on the list is relevant
    For hint #2 - I won't tell you who that triathlete is, but he was a pro triathlete who had to retire unexpectedly due to heart problems

    lol
    I have no idea what the theme is and see absolutely no connection to me (or anyone else) for any of those six clues, even with the expansion.

    I'll continue to mark you as "Dunno"

    Just body positivity to remind those of us who work tirelessly on our physiques that we'll still be valued even if we let ourselves go

    (Haul) Hint #4
    Thinking of food items, I enjoy sending a certain type of item that can, and will, have the
    opposite effect desired for diabetics. But hey, I think all of us need to be conscious of the real risk of our hobby.
    Of course, sweets will be be included in bottles and/or cans. But this confectioner began, notably, much closer to you than me. I am reasonably sure that you have come across this temptress in your travels but cannot confirm this. I hope this addition will not
    offend your dearones. Maybe it will actually endear them to our chaos.

    I've been hit!
    Have I been ninja'd, or has my targeter begun a campaign of annihilation against my poor porch? I don't know, because I didn't get a chance to open it as I was on my way to work, but it appears to have come from @jonphisher!

    Details will be revealed (not least to me) this evening.

    There is not sufficient "LIKE" button for this. Hilarious!

    My brother had a former CHP (California Highway Patrol) Mustang. We got her up to about 124 MPH in Montana. That sure felt different than 80 or 90.

    I'm not sure the simple mind part would eliminate any of us, regardless of @snaotheus and his data geekery, or @Roguer and @JayORear with their precise grammar. Most of us are just simple, beer loving morons (and I mean that in the best way possible!)

    ...I took what you said purely in the biblical sense (in a manner of speaking)...
