    Well, one of my hints was "a piece of swag will be of no use".

    Those are boxes #1 &#2. #3 is still in the wind (it's the smallest box, but contains the "rarest" beer I'm sending), and I just dropped #4 last night, and haven't checked tracking on it yet.

    If you hadn't yet noticed, that Gruff bottle is an19% IPA. It was bottled about a year ago, and I haven't had one since it was bottled (didn't even have a name yet, at the time), so I've no idea how it's holding up. I figured since you live in a tourist area, you would get a kick out of some of our tourist pamphlets. There's another piece of swag in box 3, and more food in box 4.

    Edit: There'll be another can of Boundary Bay IPA in box 4, but it was canned Sunday. The date coder was being weird, so it doesn't have a date, but it is fresher than the you you already have. Also, another BB can that was packaged Monday.

    Lmao @BBThunderbolt is gonna get himself banned from the USPS with all these boxes. Seriously though, I am curious, are you getting billed for this? That handwriting looks more like passive aggressive BS than actual official charges ...

    Guess I'll find out when I get my my statement. That one I sent to Dimidiata was semi-egregious, but that one above is just nit-picking. I use the self-serve kiosk, and never put my return addy on them, but these 2 are the only 2 that have had that writing on them. I wonder if it's someone at my local PO?

    I did notice that 19% er.... I moved to Orlando when i was 2. I have not been to The Magic Kingdom in 20yrs. But I do go to Epcot and Animal Kingdom maybe once per year. I actual live in what they call for tourist purposes North Orlando. I am about 40 minutes from Daytona Beach and about 35 minutes form the "Attractions". I am hoping and praying that my company will go virtual work full time after the Pandemic. I want to get the F out of Florida.

    I grabbed a bottle of beer that I like a lot, and was wrapping it when an alarm went off in my head. I went back to check @FrankenMiller 's profile, and there is one style of beer that he cannot abide, and will do unspeakable things with if he receives one. So, I'll just keep that bottle of Alaskan Smoked Porter for myself.

    Not going to lie....I knew via FedEx notifications that something was coming to our house from Pittsburgh, and I was very much hoping it was beer from Justin rather than something my wife or kids ordered. Turns out it was.....I win!
