The Whale that Got Away :(

Sorry to kill everyone's buzz, but I thought I would update on what happened to Chris's (coldmeat23) package. It was delivered a week ago Friday. I had already left for the 4th of July weekend, and was gone until Sunday. In the meantime, someone helped themselves to the package.

After talking to neighbors and the leasing office, I have confirmed that it was indeed delivered to my address, and it was at my door most of the weekend. I've never had any problems with this before. I'm guessing whoever took it got one hell of a surprise when he opened it....

So, I decided to post after talking with Chris and Mason because I didn't want there to be any question that Chris fully did his part. I'm really pissed that I missed out on what I know would have been an awesome box. I want to thank Chris for the box and Chris and Mason for their generosity and time in dealing with this. Again, I'm not looking for sympathy--I clearly should have had some sort of backup plan for this situation--but I wanted to make sure Chris got his props.
