    Yeah, I was. Now to the "fun" part of the day.

    When I went into HyVee in Mason city at around 10:30 this morning, it was overcast, but fine. When I left a bit after 11, it was a damn blizzard. I'm lucky the I-DOT didn't shut down I 35. Visiability was horrible, and was all the way to my sister's place near Northfield, MN. It's her birthday today, and she trurns 29..... again, for the 17th time. Then the snow started picking up bad when I was there for about an hour and a half, and I decided to leave. It was bad until I got to I 394, then it stopped, and the roads were pretty good all the way to Clearwater, when the damn blizzard hit again, and the roads got really slippery. It was one hell of a "fun" drive today.

    I am home now enjoying a beer, and will be posting in NBW shortly.

    Gritty is definitely in the room, a foot from the Eagles Super Bowl XXXIX teddy bear
    Beaker (who is moveable) is hanging out with the terra cotta warrior on one of the top shelves

    So far you are cumulatively 0 for 22. Only 6 choices left. If you go 0 for 27, I want my name on a BIF Hall of Fame plaque somewhere! For those of you who haven't made a second guess yet, your odds are pretty good at this point.

    I probably shouldn't, but why not? I'm awash with beer, and more incoming from an outside BIF, and an outside trade.
    Here's my guess, because it seems different from the other 5

    Revolution Coffee Eugene beer can.

    And then there were twenty-something-mumbles-mumbles.

    We've got about two weeks left in the sign ups, friends! Definitely keep poking the old guard. We're above our lowest recorded level, and we're at a good spot, but I'd love to see us push 30. :slight_smile:

    i am going with Thomas Magnum Pop! Funko.... probably wrong.. but everything left on the list looks like something you would have.

    Good guess, as it's certainly random, but it is in fact on one of the shelves in the office
    Also a solid guess, but also incorrect. Friend of mine sent it to me randomly last year (we loved that show back in the day)

    We're now up to 0 for 24. For those who haven't made a first and / or second guess yet, only four options left....25% chance of winning!

    @Roy_Hobbs have you ever actually stated that something on that list is not in fact in your office, or are you playing all of us ...

    A part of me wants to confirm my participation and take a shot with so few options remaining! That seems decidedly unfair though. I will refrain.

    If you confirm your participation, it's 100% fair game (and well played on your part). I certainly wouldn't object, and I'm the one who would be sending the beer, so........

    As much as I’d love some more of what you send Ross, I will remain a spectator on this one.

    For the record, I’d guess Swoop. But that is not an official guess.

    I really thought someone had already guessed the Potato Head, or am I misremembering things again?

    @nc41 commented that it was too dumb not to be true, and @FBarber posted a picture of one, but nobody has guessed it yet.
