    To my sender: there arent any particular beers that I am in search of (other then cherry rye, but y'all already know that's a standing ISO). If a beer falls into a style I like and you think I need to try it then it works for me.

    I am not part of this BIF, my target is as clueless as my other targets:wink: !

    a.) I know the rules but refuse to play by them! (been a lifelong problem:stuck_out_tongue:)
    b.) I have a freakishly large package
    c.) I may or may not send a tracking a number.

    My target may (or may not) have been once been told "Stop doing that or you'll most certainly go blind".

    No porch is safe!:grimacing:

    Awesome, early boxes. I cannot sent out my target's box before 3/9 for reasons known only by me.

    My targets box will be filled with Hoppy and Stouty goodness based on their wants and likes. Which will not be a problem to provide these things as my disto gets lots that he either lists as wants or doesn't know he wants.... but should.

    I'll be shipping not this week but next. My target may begin applying lubrication to porch at any time.

    My target is one of the first people on this site that "followed" me.

    looks like i might be first to ship. definitely not looking to set any tone on this BIF or create any pressure, but i'm pretty pleased with my box. my target made it easy for me by having good guidelines to go by and a want list that i was able to hit pretty nicely. have to pack it up...but will probably go out monday maybe tuesday. i will keep y'all posted...

    hint though...this is a BA in this group that i haven't had too much personal interaction with but definitely a friendly BA that has been good to the group and deserves a nice box.

    My target may or may not have an extra chromosome!

    I will simply not let this stand!! As someone who is not participating at all in this BIF, I can not stand idly by.

    I will send not 1 but 2 aforementioned non-conforming boxes tomorrow, while racing to beat Evan to my Fedex drop off point.:grimacing:

    One target knows something is in the works, the second shall remain clueless.:wink:

    I will not respect your porch in the morning, never, no matter what claims I make the night before.:flushed:

    My boxes hit the Fedex drop off at 12:15 PM EST, but I may still have lost to Evan!:slight_frown:
    (Had to run to beer store, home depot, pack, & deliver. Plus I have averaged less than 900 calories a day for over 60 straight days, so like a certain parrot "I am completely shagged out - as if after a long squawk!")

    Box 1:

    I contain 117 oz.
    I weigh 18 lbs.
    I hopefully contain something "extra-special" for those liking the funkadelic
    I do not have traditional swag but I do have a little something
    The 117 oz I contain is in addition to a bottle that was discussed in trade, so my target is well aware a box was coming!:flushed:

    Box 2:

    I contain 137 oz.
    I weigh 21 lbs.
    I should at the very minimum have my target soil his leopard thong in explosive fashion (guessing here on the leopard, but probably guessing right!:grinning:)
    I also do not have traditional swag but I do have a little something
    I have decided that my target will remain clueless until 24 hours before estimated impact :sunglasses:

    With apologies to Matt, Bennett, & Jon, I believe this more than constitutes my best work.

    I really, really, have to stop doing this!:grinning: :flushed:

    You porch remains open to receiving through either the front or back door! :grimacing: Your porch is filthy and we all like that about it!:slight_smile:

    One 30 pound box will be arriving in a seaside state in a short two days.

    I have it on good authority that beercules is on a biergarten tour of Germany right now and has no time to deal with messages. dealwithit.gif

    If I were to hand delivery my box to my target via car it would take longer than 6 hours, but less than 30.

    It would take me approximately 22 days to deliver my box on foot.

    This is rapidly turning into a March Madness BIF with these ship-dates! Holy Easter-is-a-month-away, Batman!
