    Since I've all but stopped trading and this BIF is almost a month past, driving up to my house no longer brings the joy it once did. I pull up to no boxes and feel an emptiness.

    Who needs a trade in their life?

    Send a ninja box, receive a ninja box?

    Well, this one still hasn't ended. @woemad just shipped to his target, @jhavs hit me yesterday, I'll be hitting jhavs next week (see above post about being an idiot:flushed:), @cavedave is hitting me today, we still haven't seen the Gold and Bronze medal boxes yet, and I'm thinking I might do a couple more stealth ninja passes. We'll see.

    Send out a sixer to somebody. I predict it will be answered in kind.:wink:

    Pretty good timing on your part. I was worried you got deployed to somewhere like Diego Garcia while a box of IPAs and Belgiany beers was baking on your doorstep.

    They wouldn't send a NBS BIFer there, would they?

    Actually drinking my own first bottle of one of the beers I included in that box. A Juice Box from Trickster's, and (with apologies to @beertunes), it is DANK!

    It's the Navy. They do goofy stuff, sometimes. They sent my Dad, after graduating first in his class from sonar school in 1968, not to Vietnam, but another warzone, Detroit, where his recently won sonar skills moldered away aboard an obsolete WWII escort ship being used to take the local reservists around the Great Lakes on weekends.

    In this particular instance, juicy just doesn't cover it. I've smelled marijuana that smelled less like marijuana than this beer does. It's just south of being a problem for me (I generally can't stand the aroma of pot).

    If that doesn't sound like an endorsement, read my review. I actually really like it, but it's not for the squeamish (but they generally don't like IPAs, anyway).

    Oh, and @beertunes, say goodbye to Nintendo as owners of the Mariners (in case you haven't already heard). I'm so stoked to hear this. Now we'll have an actual owner who gets pissed when the team doesn't win, instead of bean counters who don't give a crap unless the team stops making money.

    Well, the new dude did start a company that became T-Mobile, so I'm sure there will still be bean counting. In the following link, scroll most of the way down the comments (they don't number the comments), and look for a comment from a poster named 116. It'll be in teal. There's some other interesting stuff in that thread if you've got time: http://www.lookoutlanding.com/2016/4/27/11520000/howard-lincoln-is-retiring

    Remember way back at the beginning of this BIF, when it was hockey season/talk? Now it's baseball season/talk.
