    Boxes are ready to go. EXCEPT I NEED TAPE!!! WTF. So back to the store I go.

    In the meantime - Hint: The state I'm in today is right next to the state my boxes are going to. I hauled a big ass crate on the plane from Texas to make this shit happen!

    Just checked backed after a five day battle royale with the flu... stoked to see all these killer packages going out. Still too delirious to have any idea who has me as a target... but I hope it's, all of you!?

    So I should easily hit 7 of my targets wants but I am aiming to hit 13. I won't be able to ship for a little while due to release dates for some beers.

    Hint: Distribution has forced me to get a bit creative.

    It's all up to FedEx now! And all three boxes will be there TOMORROW! (At least that's what they said.)

    Just sent 40 lbs of love to my target.

    Here's another hint: it's warmer there than here

    Only one U.S. President was born in my target's state. I was able to hit some wants and think I have a solid list of should be wants that'll be heading out on Monday.

    Wow, apparently I am the lucky recipient of this absolute explosion as it just arrived at the house this afternoon! I'm finishing up work but will get pictures posted tonight. Can't thank you enough for this ridiculously huge delivery!

    First off, I can't thank FlyingKelly enough for putting together a ridiculous shipment that includes some awesome beers I can't wait to try. I saw what looked like a cardboard column outside of the front door, but no, it was just a stack of boxes ~6 feet high:

    I then started setting up beer on the island in the kitchen until I realized that the island wasn't even big even enough so I only got pictures of the glassware and the Hof Ten Dormaal lineup:

    Finally moved to the table to unpack everything. After about 20-30 minutes of unpacking, I was in awe:

    The brews:
    Abyss '11 and Abyss '12
    Eclipse Rittenhouse Rye '11 and '12
    Karbach Yule Shoot Your Eye Out
    Karbach FraGeeLay Fun Series#2
    Karbach Hellfighter Fun Series#3
    Rodenbach Classic, Rodenbach '09, Rodenbach '10
    DuClaw Retribution, DuClaw Divine Retribution
    Jester King Black Metal and Funk Metal
    Jester King & Mikkeller Drink'in in the Sunbelt, Mikkeller Drink'in in the Sun
    Jester King Weasel Rodeo and Karbach Rodeo Clown x4
    Hof Ten Dormaal 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
    Brooklyn Black Ops '12
    GI Nightstalker '12
    MoaS '12

    I know there was an oz. limit rule, but apparently FlyingKelly has no regard for rules! 31 beers were included here, so I hope I didn't miss anything on the list above, and honestly can't thank you enough for these awesome boxes. If this isn't 'blown up', I don't know what is. Cheers!

    My box is packed and shipping tomorrow AM, with a Wednesday est. arrival.

    50lbs
    372 oz
    22 botlles, including 2 sets of 5, and 1 of 4

    My targets favorite everyday beer(if he could buy it, according to one of his threads) that is the same beer with 3 different bottling dates in the same month

    Only 2 of my bottles don't match(but one of those just came off the plane today with me on a flight from Ohio, that included a drive to Indiana in search of FFF beer)

    My target's from where my favorite movie was filmed, and lives by Ocean.

    My box(es) is coming together nicely. I am going shopping friday for most of the remaining beers. I am waiting on the t-shirts to arrive in the mail, when they get here, I will pick up the growlers and ship to the state that houses my fave NFL team.

    The boxes are still on target and heading to a man whose favorite year is definitely 1876. If he were bi, he might like 1976 even more. Hope the friends are lined up for Saturday or Sunday, because it'll be drinkin' time!

    I only sent 1 box, but its loaded. Fedex picked up today and is headed to a warmer area of the world. Next hint, my target has posted quite recently, and I am in another BIF with this person.
