    I’m going to need to think on it. Life has gotten really, really busy. I owe @ovaltine a LIF win box and promised another LIF box (I may just send this to someone instead).

    Also, last round, one of the boxes sent my way got seized at customs. A box just sent to me by @jonphisher is missing. I’m a little worried that the feds have caught on to my beer importing scheme.


    Let me think. Thanks.

    @Roguer, I'm pretty sure this is just his way of saying, "HELL YEAH but don't put me on the list because then I get to sneak attack more!"

    ...no firm decision yet, but will likely pass...

    ...I've been lamenting the need to pare down my beer stash. There may be a wee bit of progress...I'll likely make up my mind next week some time...

    I'm in the same camp as @beergoot. I may sit out this round, as I'm desperately trying to drink down my "inventory". That said, I may cave by the time the deadline comes around.

    Buddy, you don’t owe me anything - take care of stuff on the homefront.

    And avoid the feds. Please.

    For those sitting on the fence, I’d like to think the boxes of NA beer I’m sending would be enticement enough to send you scurrying to your keyboards.

    Or maybe that Haul Hint was a deception (refer to the Post #1 in this thread) and I’m about to unleash an assault of impy stouts that I’ve been building for the last few months, the likes of which has never been seen ….. ever.

    In other words, I know how to crush a porch.

    GET ON BOARD THE NBS BIF #17 TRAIN!!!!!

    He speaks truth here, he most definitely knows how to crush a porch. Such amazing carnage too.

    I think I'm in. I just won't be sending more than an initial installment at the time of the share date.

    So...what exactly is a Yinzer, anyway? How did that term come into being. One of my best friends is from Pittsburgh and she doesn't know what it comes from.

    "yinz" is how they say the phrase - you all. They use it like southerners use the term "y'all" and some people from Philly say "youse"

    "yinz coming over to watch the Steelers game Sunday?"

    Interesting. When I first moved to southern Ontario I noticed that rural and suburban folk here would often say ‘youse.’ It always struck me as odd until I realized it was a very common thing. I still don’t like it.

    As an English Quebecker though, I have a tendency to say things like ‘close the lights’ instead of ‘turn off the lights,’ and ‘ya, no’ to say no instead of just saying ‘no.’ So, I probably shouldn’t judge.

    Actually, that'd be "Yinz coming over to watch the Stillers game Sunday? Naw, watchin the Iggles".

    LOL! The things I learn here just blow my mind sometimes. Yinz I get, Stillers even (though somewhat sacrilegious) but Iggles? Isn't that a kids Muppet based show? ;-)

    Not sure...but I think it's "Eagles" in Philly's version of English or whatever regional dialect "yinz" is from
