If I get oldskool's box I fully expect a Playboy from the 60s with a few pages stuck together and a half-smoked Cuban cigar. :D

No way! I keep them Full Bush Playboys for me and only my closest relatives.
There might be a Duke Voodoo doll, home videoZ, possibly but rarely any-liquor. That's goes in me as I pack the box. I do need that recipe for Tater Clippins to be complete.

And for those of you who are playing, have you got your boxes packed up yet?

How about now?

;)
Sounds good! I have a lovely box packed up and ready to go!

Ok, the assignments list has been checked & double-checked, a last-minute addition was made, and the messages sent out telling everyone who their victim will be. The next part is up to the 23 guys who signed up; pack up a box and send it out by December 17. And when you send it out, post a comment here so I can check you off on my list.

Thanks to you all for playing! This is gonna be great!

Do your border agents have an issue with venomous animals?

If anyone gets a box with "Shake Well Before Opening" written on it, it definitely does not contain bees.

They have no issue with destroying them.

I've got my box and 2 items added to the inside of it already. New guy might just appreciate the to be added contents. I'm going to put some things I don't have answers for in there for sure.

Shipped express today. That should allow ample time for extermination of unwanted stow aways and noxious odours before the grand reveal. HAZMAT suit not included.
