Halle Berry's pet Octopus: NBS BIF 8

I might just do that... how do you feel about sours?

 

Love how I knew you the best yet was still FAR off

 

I do like sours. (Unlike your target, the rapscallion).

That said, I was mainly yukking it up.

And that said, some of those shelves do look to be bowing a little bit. Happy to help you out.

 

No, YOU say when. If you're serious, the January Speciation release might be good timing. Last year they did a cellar raid of everything that hadn't been picked up the previous year. Not sure if they'll do that again... anyway, second Saturday.

Or we can both just load up our trunks and meet halfway... say south bend, indiana? I've got a buddy there who can host. His wife is pregnant, but I'm sure she won't mind.

 

Haha - exactly! I'm shocked that @Dragginballs76 and @FFFjunkie didn't have a more accurate guess. They know how crazy I am about hoarding beer. I think everyone assumes, based on my wild check-ins to Untappd, that I drink everything I have.

Just not enough hours in the day for debauchery, dude.

You may be yukking it up... I was not.

Yeah, I need to build myself some solid shelves. I've been holding off until I sell my house and move somewhere more "permanent", but I am just too fucking indecisive about where I want to live (in-state vs. out of state, that is - I'd like to live somewhere warmer, and cheaper, but where I can still find a good job, where there are less giant fucking blonde Scandinavians, etc.). Complex choice, man.

The steel shelves came from my grandpa's basement - he had a bunch of VERY heavy toolchests set up on those shelves, so they were pre-bowed. The other shelves... well. That's all me. Those Ikea shelves are surprisingly sturdy though - I've been surprised.

I like both of these plans. January might just be awesome - I worry about beer freezing and blowing up in my car, but there are ways around these problems. Let's talk about this again in December-ish. I'll be saving up [more] bottles for you - may need to take a little trip to New Glarus and Funk Factory before then... I suspect @akatz821 @Dragginballs76 and @FFFjunkie might also appreciate that.

 

You are right I figured with all you check in there was no way you had that many!!

 

Well, well and well.....

Who do we have here....????

 

Truth be told Chris I figured you’d be north of 300 bootles BUT I was afraid to win and have you forward on to a certain Lurker......didn’t want to start that all over again!

@FlintB January just might work out. We could hang out and make fun of @WesMantooth and all those other savages (I mean fans) of OSU (I can’t even type the words out )......

Oh and @Vidblain i wouldn’t worry too much about @thebeers as I have good reason to believe his ass is about to get lit up........

 

Got no state reptile, although former governor Rendell would be a good candidate. Although, on second thought, that would probably offend the reptiles.

 

.......LBI

wise choice for someone still in recovery from the last time



LBO......

 

Hint #10. I make a cameo appearance in several of @larryi86 and @TheBeers ‘s WBAYDN posts from yesterday. The shirt I was wearing features an animal that I’m 99.6% sure does not venture into your state/province. Zombie versions notwithstanding.

 

I have to direct my nervous energy somewhere besides my tracking number and I've been having a lot of fun so far, so...


Random 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.


______________________________________

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: Tracking your package is stressing me out in a big way...

• (Unfortunately, this is still the case....)

Random bonus hint #2: If it ever leaves purgatory it will be heading WNW.

 

Also I got a FedEx tag on my door at some point today. Going to investigate this later. I suspect malfeasance by someone on here.

 

You know, you remind me of my favorite song from GnR.....

It’s So Easy.....

LBO...........for now......... I need a nap.....

 

Since I wasn't here yesterday much, here's one more hint for today.

Hint #16 - You have fewer place reviews than I do.

Previous Hints:

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.

Hint #10 - My target is older than I am.

Hint #11 - Your state was one of the first 9 needed to ratify the US Constitution for it to go into effect. The convention in your state approved the Constitution unanimously.

Hint #12 - Article 1 Section 2 of the Constitution, your State was given a number of Representatives in the House until a census could be conducted. Your state was supposed to "chuse" either 5, 4, or 3. One of those numbers is your State's number, the other two are for states other than your own.

Hint #13 - There is more than 1 person from your state participating in this BIF.

Hint #14 - Your want list, as of last check, is the same amount as mine.

Hint #15 - The person receiving the beer that I am sending has earned, at least, the status of Savant here on BA.

 

We just got distro of UTZ’s recently. Hmmm....
