    OK. so. I am well behind and I apologize with all my being. For some reason I stopped getting notifications, so while I should probably be at 4069830249 hints and posts...I'm at zero =/ time to change that!!! 5 hints all at once:
    #1 - shipping westward
    #2 - I have never been to my targets state
    #3 - my targets state touches at least one large or relatively large body of water
    #4 - my target does have a picture in their BA profile
    #5 - my target has never received beer from me

    Sorry for falling behind!

    Bummer. Thanks, LD. In honor of crossing another name off my list, I will allow anyone who replies to this before I check the thread again tomorrow to ask if I’m their sender. I will respond with the truth.

    Here’s a few more hints for my target.

    We have never exchanged beer before.

    I have shipped to your state before. Maybe once or maybe a lot.

    I will slightly modify one of my previous hints, because I screwed up. I didn't put in a key word to properly include/exclude participants.

    So my modified hint #3 will say:

    You're not in a state that's getting hit by the crazy HURRICANE aunt Flo.

    So, here's all my hints totally corrected now

    Hint #1 - I've been to this BAs State only twice, and only because of an airport layover.
    BTW: I totally hate said airport, and try to avoid it.

    Hint #2 I've not had any beers from your state.

    Hint #3 You're not in a state that's getting hit by the crazy hurricane aunt Flo.

    Hint #4 The great comic Gilbert Gottfried did a skit on your state in one of his comedy albums.

    Hint #5 - I have reviewed more beers on here than you have.

    Hint #6 - You have reviewed at least one beer from my state of insanity... I mean Minnesota

    Hint # 7 - I am shipping a good distance East and just a bit south from my central MN home.

    Hint # 8 - You have more likes on this site, and have been here a lot longer than I have.

    Hint #9 - I mentioned that you might get some Wisconsin beer. Unless I screwed up, and missed it, your beer list doesn't include any Wisconsin Beer.

    Ok, BIG hint. So far I only have 7 of you crossed off of my list, which doesn’t seem like a lot to me. This hint will let around 1/3 cross me off of your lists.

    -I’m not shipping West and AM shipping East(at least a little)

    I am a lightweight, and have had 3 tonight, nothing too crazy, but the last one was a 6% 750ml beer.

    Going through everything in this state of insanity, I have crossed off 15 names, and have 3 maybes.

    Now, again, it may be the blood alcohol level talking, but I'd wager that there's several who haven't hinted yet. I may be wrong.

    Finally back from the middle of the Pacific and only up to page 6. Rest assured, I have my target and I will soon readjust to my time zone and all of the beer and food shopping that normally takes place within it.

    Hint #3: My target was gracious enough to appear in NBS today (9/16). Good man, and cheers!
    Hint #4: I posted a haul hint to NBS today (9/16) which also may eliminate some of you as targets.

    From an “official trade” standpoint, I will go ahead and email you an OMB wish list just to be safe

    My cousins both live on the coast. One is in Wilmington, and the other on Caroina Beach. He said that he basically just had a calm come over him and packed the kids up and left because he knew there was nothing he could do. Hasn’t left for a storm in the nearly 20 yrs he has been there.
