Well ******* hell, what a Friday! Several boxes arrived this fine day, some expected, some completely unexpected.

To start with got my Pairing with Tradition BIF box from xpimptastikx!

Wait, what's this? A box from my long time trade buddy knc21!

NO WAY? Then a completely unexpected surprise box from my good trade partner ASUBeer!!

Wait, ANOTHER? Ok, dafuk? Awesome trade box (and I just realized my first 100% TB trade), thanks sexy lady, you know who you are!!

Best part of this day is I get to share some of dat coconutzz delight with some friends right away this evening, and still have one to share with some of my other Indiana peeps. Not sure it gets much better than that! Thanks to all four of you, a most excellent way to end a most excellent week (been on vacation all week). Cheers!

You totally got tag teamed by Chicago.

I am really glad it all got their safe (did the other glass get there ok?). I was worried about how tight it all was in the box.

One was being consumed during the picture taking. The cold weather we're experiencing worked well for immediate drinking!

My concern was whether I could stand today wearing shorts. I survived, but it was a struggle.

Some packages today. As usual, TB blows me away with generosity! You guys are the mother ******* greatest!

First, a glass from the great mjohnson17, well was supposed to just be a glass anyway.....

Oh, hey! Another box....here goes that ******* TomTwanks again...I mean I knew something was coming...but TWO BB Apple Pie? That's an assault man, for which there is going to be swift retribution. Know that. (homebrews on the left for those curious)

Sorry for the ****** photos, I'm a shaky ****** with my penis in my hand.

Hey, didn't you get a Euro box recently? Pics or it didn't happen ;-)

[elkhunter36]

So this is an awesome box from elkhunter36 . I can't say thank you enough.

Glad you liked it. The one you sent me wasn't too shabby either

Forgive me for posting a collection of a few hauls. I'm testing out my new VPS and the caching system to reduce load. So posting this here for my own server load testing. Decided to start hosting my own stuff and stop relying on Google / Yahoo for all of my storage needs.

Edit: Crap, this is still loading slower than I want it to. I know it's a 7.5 megabyte image but I really want this server to be a bit more responsive than this. Anyone getting the image really slow? Sorry to do a guinea pig thing here but this image should be loading up a bit faster.

No need to humble brag, this thread is all about outright bragging!

Thanks to two partners in crime, who will remain nameless!

 

[Usofar]

Just got a great box from Chicago from PHBoiler on BA. I'm hoping the box i send him will convince him to make the jump over here.

Amazing Haul from Lefty Hyzer, first class bro

- Case of Dust
- Bottle of super .rar bbq sauce whale ( 1 of 1 ) if you dont know you better ask somebody !

 

[Lognar]

Met up with JohnfromPurdue for an IP trade as he was travelling through. When I said "any combination of those would make me happy," I sure as hell didn't expect this...



I'm still all "wow man, just wow." John is a hell of a generous guy and from the few moments I got to talk with him he seems like an all around good guy too.

Ugh. Please let me know how that Commons Maybelle is. That's a brewery I want to keep my eye on. I can see some super cool stuff churning out of there over the next few years. I still have a bottle of Fishing with Hallet I'm saving for special event next week
