    Earlier this week I get an email from a hop supplier, who will remain nameless, about my hop shipment.

    Only problem is I did not order hops. I click the link for the tracking info and see a 10lb box on its way.

    I was too busy at the moment to follow up, but the devil in me thought it would be funny to reroute the shipment to my house haha.

    Anyway I get an email the next day from the supplier saying the that for whatever reason the email was incorrectly sent to me. I responded with an I figured as much but told the joke about the devil reroute and we had a good laugh.

    So, if your shipment is on fedex truck for deliver in Ithica, NY today 2/8/2014 just know the devil wanted to send it to Tajikistan.

    I posted this half hoping the hops were going to someone on this forum. Although they may not think it is as funny as I did.

    you can send my hops to Ithaca, NY where they belong. Brooktondale as a matter of fact.
    it is not economical for me to go to Tajikastan to pick them up.
    Thanks.

    Are you telling me that is your shipment? Too funny!
    I am getting some real comedy miles out of this email.

    edit: nevermind, I get it you devil! Reroute them to you, that is funny.

    Or you can reroute them to Owego and save me the 30 mile drive to Ithaca. ;-)

    Cheers!
