What makes a good day?

I told you before - mail call... :-)

Today I received a box - a rather large box that was rather heavy - and rather beat up - as many of the packages that arrive are beat up regardless of how big and/or heavy. So what was inside the box you may ask?!

A lot of stuff. So much stuff I had to wait till I got back in my hooch to "unpack" it!! I'm not going to give the complete contents because my Internet sucks - I'd have to type so fast and so long, it would probably never post the message! :-)

So let's start with Jerky - Uh, yeah - LOTS of that - and every flavor you can imagine! Chips - uh, well I can't say nothing was broken in the package - because there were like 3 chips that we NOT broken. The good news is everything else in the box was undamaged. So - I've got broken chips with dip - lots of dip too (this is good because there is no such thing around here). Texas Pete made it - he is plentiful around here. Then I came to some cigars (lots of those - Swisher, my favorite) and nuts - oh yeah, lots-o-nuts. Big bags/little bags. And some sweets - a LOT of different kinds of sweets. I put every single one into a bag and I'm bring them back to the FET (the building we work out of) for those younger guys to fight over. Honey buns, nutter-butter sumtin or nuder, Little Debbie things, I think I saw some Skittles in there - heck, I didn't even recognize some of the stuff they have now! :-) It all looks - uh - sweet.. Yeah - good things to share. I know - some of you are telling me I NEED to be a little sweeter!!! I hear ya!

Also stuffed in the box was a magazine - nice touch... made me miss hunting with David back home even more... and a very nice USAF Tumbler - not broken - good thing to have - if only I had something GOOD to go in it!!! Cold, frosty, BEER! That would be good! I searched the box and found none... I hoped, and dreamed, and I'm stuck with my Bit-Burger 0% near beer - that's OK though - it's the thought - I'm good with that.

So there you have it - a whole blog entry over just one box. Yes - it was a good day. Thank you BOX FAIRY!!!

The box came from our friends in TN - David & Janice. I'm guessing more Janice than David. I can see David now - stuffing beer after beer in the box and Janice pulling them out as fast as they were going in. Thank David - nice try buddy! :-) For what it's worth, honestly people - I don't need the headache. Do not try to send anything illegal - that would just be a bad day. Look how happy I am and I got just a box of 'stuff" - good stuff, and a lot of stuff... Thanks again Brown's! I love you all.

Mark.
