PRIORITY BOX EXCHANGE - Show Your Stuff!

[Angel]

My box came in today from Colorado. I suspect that it's full of narcotics.

[Ray in Phoenix]

Roy, hope you like the contents....
I am feeling the pressure now.

Also my box came with the label on the bottom of the box...
Hmmm, how should I open it????
Is this some kind of protest to the post office?
Only time will tell.

My box arrived! Holding out until Christmas to open it.

Hawaii is looking very over rated right now:

My box from GA arrived this morning! Or maybe last night.

I shook it. Sounds interesting!!!

[bigwave]

Box arrived with the type of message on it that really builds suspense.

[Brian in TN]

Just got my box. No way in hell I'm waiting to open a shwag box from Kohler.

[smitty]

Box is here. Front porch booby traps are going back up. /

LMAO.

Safely tucked under the tree, I am looking forward to opening it.

[oldskool]

Got my box and promptly lost track of that sucker amongst another HUGE project out in the garage. Updates to follow.

You know how it goes, about the time a guy gets a little cocky, he gets kicked down a notch or two. Case in point: Roll back in this thread to the comment I made a couple of days ago about questioning Santa's ability to deliver... Well, yesterday I found out that I totally missed someone on the send-to list, and two guys got the name of another guy. As a result, CharleyDog got two boxes and leadphut hasn't got anything (yet). I muffed.

Thankfully, CharleyDog is sending one of his off to leadphut. Then today I get another message from CharleyDog; he got a third package in the mail, this time from Sapotorito. Which means I sent Sapotorito the wrong info as well. t_c_d should have been his victim. I muffed again.

So the short of it is, CharleyDog -- or should we call him LuckyDog? -- got three packages, and t_c_d and leadphut haven't got anything yet. CharleyDog is being a great sport and forwarding two of his packages (at my expense) on to t_c_d & leadphut, but they may not receive anything until after Christmas.

I know how this happened, and I'd make some lame excuses for why, but that won't change anything; I messed up, and I'm sorry.
I expect to be summarily fired and replaced.

No excuses needed Dave. The fact you even THINK about organizing all this is heroic, and we are all very grateful.

[MicahO]

^^ What Dr. Honeydew said. We are grateful, mistakes and all.

[Karl Grau]

I have to open mine early because I'm hitting the road straight from work tomorrow but I cleared it with the boss.

[1st 5er]

You know how it goes...
... I messed up, and I'm sorry. ...

Hey, we all got warts.
I missed the whole freakin' event.

[south26]

I got mine, but I completely forgot to ship, went out today.

You might want to poke some holes in it so it gets fresh air.

Make sure you get the holes really deep!

Dave... the fact is you should get a medal for organizing this every year. A little mess-up is no big deal and given all you have on your plate, it is surprising to me that it hasn't happened before. Don't sweat the small stuff

Whoever got Dave in the PBE please send me his mailing address via PM (knowing Dave he won't send it to me) I'd like to send him a little help with the shipping he so graciously covered to re-send those mis-directed boxes.

Dave, you are off in the Fatherland and things happen, there is no way we could fire you, because there is no one else that would take such a job. So Thank you for helping the Mye28 community celebrate another xmas in style.

I think it's my fault because I paid Dave an extra $20 to assign me to cek. Unfortunately it backfired, someone else got cek, and now i'm without a present.

Regardless Dave, you shouldn't have to pick up the shipping. Please send me his address too.


Thanks so much for putting this together. Everyone here appreciates your time!

[Sapotorito]

When I read this...

And I received a package from just north of Tijuana...

it kind of raised a flag and I started drafting a pm to you Dave...

but then I read this

I'm crossing my fingers that whoever is sending mine put the Hawaii address in it.

You dare to question Santa's ability to deliver? Coal for your stocking this year.



(no worries, Charlie; I have assurance from your sender that it's on its way to your island.)

and I refrained LOL

Although you feel bad Dave I agree with other members, YOU ROCK for putting all the time and effort to organize this for the amusement of all of us. I personally am thankful to you for the PBE and the e28 2016 Calendar.

Please let me know if I can be of any help.

Nothing has shown up in my neck of the woods yet. Serves me right I suppose...!
