    My apologies for not posting this months ago but I was a noob and inexperienced in the ways of BA back then.
    But after reading a recent post by this truly awesome BA praising another great BA I realized "man, I feel like dick for not posting this earlier". Better late than never, hope you can forgive me.

    So here goes the story: shortly after DLD this year I posted a comment in a DLD thread about how great the event was save for one bad experience. Long story short I really wanted a bottle of Baller Stout, missed out on FFF's sale of it, had some drags try to sell me bottles for $50, I refused, I was sad :slight_frown:
    MordorMongo read the post and, completely unsolicited, sent me a Baller. He asked for nothing in return (I couldn't resist at least trying to pay him back). That was the first and nicest thing a BA has ever done for me. Completely blew my mind. thank you.

    So I just wanted to say MordorMongo is real class act, an exemplar member of the community. So I raise my glass to you good sir! Cheers!

    d00d, you joined in 2012. what do you know about BA!? (kidding) /joined in 2012

    I have no experiences with him but seems like a solid dude (no pun intended). if only he lived in chicago, i'd join on the fun he had recently. posting to BA about his cellar needing to be emptied. providing you showed up to drink his beer empty handed, he'd let you in.

    if i lived closer or the time to get to 3 Floyds, i'd join in (nowkiss.jpg) , and hook him up with a bottle of Cabra. (what better way to kiss ass and join in on the circle jerk, kidding kidding kidding. i need to quit drinking, for the day)

    Yeah Scott is great and my sentiments the same, if we lived closer I'd share anything in my cellar with him. So Scott, if you're ever in Chicago, or maybe DLD13, let's have a beer.

    Scott is definitely the man, and something tells me the DLD13 Friday night tasting is going to be pretty damn good.

    Sometimes there's a man... I won't say a hero, 'cause, what's a hero? But sometimes, there's a man. And I'm talkin' about the Dude here. Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man...

    "You want a *Whale? I can get you a *Whale, believe me. There are ways, Dude (Scott). You don't wanna know about it, believe me."

    I couldn't resist.

    Until now Scott was only known to me as MordorMongo and the help, information and unprovoked kindness he has bestowed upon me and others blows me away. He gave me tips for my first trade without even asking. Once again I applaud you kind sir.

    Cheers to Scott!!!!!!!

    He traded me a FFF Teku glass recently so I'd say that's hero status.

    I will pile on the praise. Scott sent a bb4d as an extra! Didn't want to post originally because I thought maybe he wouldn't want everyone to assume he would send such great extras. But I think that is just how the dude rolls.

    Just for the record Scott posted a thread about a box I sent him because I wanted to. I told him I didn't want a return box. He then proceeded to send me a box that was awesome. Now I am going to have to try to top that one. Vicious cycle, but that "Dude" is awesome. Go Big Red! (that's better than Cheers right?)

    I haven't had the pleasure of trading with Scott yet, but his posts are always on point and entertaining! One of those dudes on the mental list of "BM him if I'm ever in his area and bring something good to share with him".

    I find myself liking almost every post he makes! Not sure it is the name, the picture, his posts or a combination of all three, but he makes great posts!

    You are the man, dude.

    I mean, you are the dude, man.

    I mean...

    Thanks for...well, you.

    (How can I love a guy sooooo much, and have never even traded with or met him?!?! This thread has been a long time coming, no doubt.)
