I’m happy to report that today I’ve gone from Bottom Lister to Top Lister! Woohoohoo!

Unfortunately, my friend at my local USPS branch said that the expected delivery is Friday, the 26th, whether by Ground Advantage or Priority. I opted for Priority just to give the package a fighting chance of actually arriving in time for Christmas. It doesn’t have too far to travel. We shall see.

Anyway, regardless of when it arrives, I hope my match thinks it was worth the wait. My apologies for not being able to send it sooner, but the various tailored components took awhile to assemble and the last one only arrived yesterday (plus I was out of town until last night). As per usual, the gifts are numbered, generally have word clues as to their contents, and should be opened in numerical order for maximum Som Besths effect.

Wow! With such a devilishly complex series of requirements for survival, someone should make a video about the experience.

Nobody would believe it.

It’s not been the best week. We get home last night from a long drive. I’m little melancholy as misses goes to get the mail. Upon her return, she says you have a package from “Santa.” Mood instantly lifted with the giddiness of a child on Xmas morning. Pure joy to find in the contents new blends to try and the largest container of tobacco I’ve ever had with 8oz with 4 years of age. New tamper, cleaners, booze and a hand written card. Thanks east coast Secret Santa. You put some much needed holiday spirit in my season. Thank you and Som Besths to all!!View attachment 439694

That is some Holiday spirit(s)... at least 3.

Jeff’s thoughtfulness in action is something to behold for sure.

Yes. Those spirits x3 have just a days left before they lift my spirit and my BAC.

And . . . FedEx says my match can expect delivery this afternoon!

USPS Informed Delivery suggests that my gift arrives today!

 

[woodsroad]

USPS Underperforming Delivery tells me that since my match hasn’t opened their package yet, they’ll be returning it to me.

Sorry match, your package was supposed to arrive on the 19th but it's been stuck in a warehouse in Detroit for the past several days with an undetermined eta. Maybe it's just slow processing in a busy time of year, maybe it's been seized. I'll wait for an update (it's ups, so should be reliable). But if it's been seized, I'll send something from smoking pipes.

Are you sure you signed up? I don’t see your name on the participants list

Please, Brad. Come inside, it’s cold out there, especially at night. And the neighbors are complaining about you crapping in the bushes again
