    Damn that’s a hernia maker. Looks like your watch dog is about like mine she barks a bit but she’s afraid of everyone.

    Bend knees, back straight. No worries.

    Our neighbor was mowing his grass/leaves today. Ranger went doggie berserk. You would've thought the neighbor was stealing our cars - and all the dog treats and toys in the house. I travel a lot, and I don't worry about Joy whilst traveling - anyone messing around here would have a 70-lb-big-fanged problem on their hands.

    I’ve had lots of dogs, and I’ve only had one Rottweiler that was possessive, she had to be watched the rest were babies.

    OK, first business: just missed the last pick up at the Post Office, so my targets box is scheduled to land Saturday. Nothing in it that needs "settling time" so, he should good for Sunday. This is the first box: 9-12oz cans, 1-16oz can, 1 piece of glassware. The second box will have the Mystery Beer and food.

    Now, as to the box I received today from @Roguer : the following were in the 22oz format:

    Funky Buddha Nikolai Vorlauf

    Mystery Beer

    4 in a series from Aaardwolf:
    Ace of Coins; Two of Wands; 3 of Swords; The Sun.

    Westbrook Mexican Cake (OG, not a variant).

    Next, 12oz cans, two of each:

    Wild Haven: Emergency Drinking Beer.

    Coastal Empire: Tybee Island Blonde and Southern Delight Praline Amber.

    Three Taverns: Raptuous Raspberry Sour and Lord Grey Tea Sour (??? a Tea sour? That's a new one!).

    Orange Blossom Brewing Pilsener.

    Swag/food: Two bags of pecans, 1 habanero, 1 maple.

    A jar of peach salsa.

    A jar of peach-pepper jelly.

    A J. Wakefield coaster.

    A Stone Berlin Sticker.

    An Ancient City Brewing coozie.

    And, a glass from his work. The only hint about it's roots are that in the book and movie Flight of the Intruder, after a couple of characters step out of line, they are threatened with being sent there, if they don't come clean as to their misdeeds.

    Great box, much appreciated! (even the coffee beer)

    My gf loves that Lord Gray sour, but YMMV. I thought the Stone Berlin sticker was humorous, given the recent closure. Might be an eBay item in the future. :wink:

    The Nikolai Vorlauf is specifically the BBA variant. I couldn't get the regular for comparison's sake.

    Hope you also caught the letter in there.

    A little more to be sent at a date to be determined. Hope you enjoy, Terry; cheers!

    I thought that I would keep the love letter just between us. I'm actually excited for the Lord Grey, I've liked the other tea beers I've had, but a tea sour? Intriguing!

    The Stone Berlin sticker hit home in a more personal way. A friend from here went to work for Stone, and, eventually, was given the chance to move to Berlin, with his wife, also a friend. You may recall that earlier this year I went through a stretch where I had a friend or family dieing every week. Zippo had a heart attack in his sleep, in Berlin, with Stanzi by his side. That sticker will not be showing up on Ebay. I'm keeping that fucker!

    That's fucking tragic. I definitely did not have that in mind when I shipped it. It was more of a curiosity. I'm glad it carries a much deeper meaning for you, though - and from that respect, very glad I didn't get another target this round.

    One last reminder that you’re invited to the share this Saturday evening at my place in Elkins Park, PA (just north of Philly).

    Champion BIFers like Larryi86, Zekeman17, Bl00, CanConPhilly, ThisIsChuck01 and one or two others will be there. Message me for details.

    @Ozzylizard, are you able to make it? Any other takers?

    Is TG distributed in Indiana? That's a shorter drive for me than Iowa.
