Crap Master, it looks like there’s a lot of good crap going around, and I would love the opportunity to show that I can take crap while giving crap equally well.
I’ve read, understand, and agree to the rules. I’d like to get in on this crap if you’d please add me to the list.

Apparently the BoC arrived yesterday. Ellen said our sister-in-law came over and said (I'm paraphrasing), "What the heck is that???" So, an impression has been made on another member of the non-bikie community. I got home late yesterday, so haven't yet laid eyes on it myself. I will try to turn it around this weekend. @tiredhands, I will need your postal coordinates.

The box has been turned around and awaits the "letter" carrier's arrival Saturday. Winging its way to @tiredhands. The box weighs about a pound more than when it arrived.

Observing that the box o crap makes about two hops per week, I estimate it will arrive here in about three weeks. I'm excited. It has really become better over the years.

Look what was at my doorstep yesterday (banana for scale):
Opened up:
Presents for me! Not pictured is a couple stickers, I had set the sticker folder aside when repacking the box and forgot all about it!
I feel like I rolled 7s on the box o' crapshoot, I was just about to order a set of long-reach brakes but these will polish up just fine!
@michael k you're up next, I've sent you a PM. The way things are going around here I might not be able to make it to the PO before it closes, so the BoC might take a Thanksgiving vacation until Saturday.
