Part 2 has arrived. Thanks for the spicy gifts CovfefeCatCafe they will be enjoyed. The chicken on the noodle package looks angry. Lunch tomorrow should be interesting.  Also Some lovely hand drawn artwork that is now on my fridge. Interestingly enough C-GOON is actually a registered aircraft. It appears to be a neat looking tailless glider.

A BOX! FROM CALIFOURNIER! cuttin a bitch  Stickers, all manner of 3d printed wickedness, beer cozy, the  est wrench I've ever seen and a letter! This thing is a serious hunk of iron. Hammer, prybar, spanner and if you run the screw all the way out and flip the jaw, it's a pipe wrench!  So skookum. Can't wait to put it to work.  A nifty 3d printed bearing prototype, with a herringbone internal gear. The rolling elements themselves are also printed.  A printed model of a Fairbanks-Morse hit-and-miss engine!  This thing seriously owns. There's a motor inside, but the note said the gears didn't quite turn out. I think I've got a pile of nylon gears somewhere in the R/C stuff I can adapt, but even as a stationary model it's fuckin' sweet.  And a Dickbutt!  Thanks cursedshitbox! You rock dude!

Santee, I owe you an apology. I'm just getting your things shipped out today because I got stuck out of the country later than I wanted to be. There's a couple of things headed your way from Amazon, and there'll also be a couple of other things I bought you in Finland.

Got a box from Austin today! Jokes on you buddy, I love comic sans for its infuriating properties XD  Definitely stoked about the plate. I have a stack of them I mean to hang up in the shop someday when I remember to buy a box of tiny nails. I didn't have a Texas one yet. Even better that it was on the 88 Accord. I'll probably eat all of those pretzels today. I get the munchies right before I fall asleep every day and no idea why. I quit smoking years ago.  A ton of stickers. Not sure what I'll bomb, either the tailgate on the truck or my working on cars laptop.  This is probably my favorite of all the stuff. I actually don't have any 67-72 specific shirts and this ones even cooler since 67 and 68 are the best looking ones, though I may be biased.  I'm also a huge fan of stickers and these are some good ones. The Austin ones I'll keep in the stash. I wouldn't want to put them on anything temporary like a vehicle or laptop. I may have to start on the sides of my roll away or save them for a future lift. One of the Scirocco ones will go on it.  Some habanero hot sauce which I'll put on everything that isn't sweet and possibly some stuff that is. Choice Matchbox AMX and Tim keychain. I used to have the same one but from the Science Center near me but lost it long ago. They are sturdy, can go through the wash more than once and still work. I'll probably eat the Texas candy nuts at tomorrow night pre-sleep munchies time, haha.  Thanks STR! Everything is great and I especially love the plate, shirt and stickers. Maybe I'll finally remember to buy tiny nails next time I'm out, haha.

Nah, you're not biased, those are the best two years and I say that as a '70 owner. I get to feel mildly superior about having a wider rear end with leaf springs

Did the flashlight make it?  Also, yay, glad the package made it so quick! It showed up a day earlier than it was supposed to. edit: oh goddamnit, the flashlight is sitting on my desk.  I'll send it out asap (it's a 400 lumen LED light of decent quality, and small); that and the skunk + VW stickers were the major parts of the gift.  Those Mickeys stickers were just something I saw at Dollar Tree and figured I'd throw in.  Let me know how the hot sauce is; I haven't tried it, but it sounded pretty good. Wasn't sure if you drank or not, but that's my favorite regional beer if you do.

You've got mail! Hmm...  I sure hope this isn't a glitter bomb.  OH! Piece of candy!  Avalanche of candy! That is definitely the best packing material.  Even took the time to wrap things.  That's quite the haul! The print is super cool. I always love getting vinyl, and I know it's a 7" because of the rockin' tape measure that I've already turned into the perfect fridge magnet. The screwdriver and bottle opener have already found a home in my truck's toolbox, the stickers I'm not sure where to stick but I'll find a place.  And thank Christ for the triscuits! I'm gonna need some ~reduced fat~ fiber to offset all that packing material I'm about to shove into my face. Thanks Magnus Praeda!

STR posted:If that's remotely similar to what I think it is... It's supposed to be the most spicy noodles in Korea (that are sold in Taiwan). Not sure how they compare to the Japanese brand with the Devilman chicken advert. The wasabi peanuts and wasabi peas are fairly tame, but will still tickle your sinuses a little.

Yeah that pack of noodles despite not smelling all that spicy was probably the hottest thing I have every eaten. But it sneaks up on you. Perhaps this is because I have a poor sense of smell but it just slowly built up over time until my lips were burning. Unfortunately I have been growing a beard and had not recently trimmed my moustache so the flavour savour was in full effect. Yeah so it seems that Korea has a very different scale when determining the hotness of something. My coworkers really enjoyed the show in the lunch room. The fact that the flavour packet looks like you dumped a bag of oily blood into the noodles adds to the effect.

Santeeeee, looks like my parcel is going to arrive after Christmas. I hope the stuff inside makes up for it. I don't remember ordering a blower motor...  Oh yeahhhhhhh  Curious kitties  Oh man, is this a fossilized tooth?  REPUs are so great  Stickers!  Not sure what's in here  I promptly hid all of these in the kitchen cupboards for my GF  This one confused me so much, it was so dense. I could always use another expensive hobby  Tucked it into my collection. Thanks again IOwnCalculus!

A package from Canada arrived hurrah! - 3 days before Christmas so no need to apologise for tardiness    That's a huge haul which had boxes within boxes within boxes! Contents: Festive glow sticks 2 SECURT ties Packing peanuts (all consumed) 2 clamps (allegedly not for nipples) A badass little adjustable spanner (I had not heard of Hand Tool Rescue before but have opened the related video in another tab) An old cigar box with a topical name 16 gig usb drive Keyring A magnet celebrating recent victories over your side Various sweets (The coffee crisp was devoured immediately) A long bag of Ketchup crisps Idea Supply stuff to keep my head warm and aware of the date A potential biohazard in rag form which "may or may not contain 14 inches body fluids" A mysterious part from a 2007 Nissan Versa. I don't know what it is but I'd guess at some sort of temperature sensor?   What's the trick to unlocking the SECURT ties? My arm is attached to the radiator pretty well and the heating just clicked on....

Hooray! Glad it got there so soon! I'd actually checked the tracking a little earlier today and was bummed because the latest update was that the box was in Mississauga a few days ago with at least another month on the ETA. Also, the ties don't unlock, they must be cut, I hope you've got a pair of bolt cutters or an angle grinder handy! E: I'll give you a hint on the mysterious part: It does not go under the hood.

Only the finest cheap blower motors for my Heep! Glad it made it safely. The fossilized tooth is a mosasaur tooth, originally found in Morocco. The RePu was an instant purchase as soon as I saw it. My wife and kid had a much better eye than I do for the dinosaur toys / stickers

The decal is actually for the Winnipeg Jets Hockey team, but they pretty much ripped off the RCAF logo so clooooose enough. There should have been 6 of the cable clips, but they were loosely packed so if it was inspected by customs I can see them having fallen out.

I hope you got it and just haven't been able to post yet cause if someone stole it I'll be sad Glad you liked it CornHolio! And a huge thanks to the shy boy from chess club, what a seriously awesome cornucopia of automotive delights! Always can use cable ties and the 10mm was insanely clutch since my monitor wall mount was super loose and all my tools are 2 hours away at my garage, and I just so happened to need a 10mm to fix it right at the moment I got the package. I'll add the valve and camshaft to my shrine of other misc broken engine parts, and see if I can rig up the boost gauge to my garage fridge or something.  My wife loved that I got even more hotwheels to add to my collection , but these are some legit really cool ones, I almost bought that Lotus the other day   Always could use more stickers for my toolbox!   at this shirt, which actually fit great. The dog loves his new skunk!  Thanks again!

CornHolio posted:My package shows that it was delivered on the 23rd. I'm glad it got there before Christmas, I was a little concerned! It was on my doorstep at 10am on December 24th! Absolutely perfect timing! CornHolio, you're amazing!  What have we here?  May you forever ride eternal, shiny and chrome!  The plush rotor (Dr. Felix Rotorstein) will be living in the RX-8 from now on. The coasters have already been broken in. Those stubby drivers will supplement the existing driver set nicely and should come in handy when I swap out the RX-8 head unit for the JDM minidisc player. The security bit set is fantastic, I haven't even seen some of those ends before. You can never have enough Gorilla tape, that will be living in the rotary support vehicles glove box. That book has been on my Amazon wishlist forever, thank you! The copy of GT6 will be put to use with DoritoPower as soon as possible and I'm thinking would make an excellent AI:SS mascot gift. It'll be autographed and passed along for 2019 if that's acceptable?]  Your kids drawing is up on the fridge! Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you and your family Cornholio!

One of the stickers comes with a piece of 45-70 brass.  There were awesome cufflinks and the coolest socks ever weaved, for us suit types!   As well as a skill building set!  Picture of the AMG brake disc in the red box didn't come out, but it's really good wall art. Adiabatic, this Christmas rules!

I was worried it got stolen and that would have sucked. The Rotary Pickup was so, so hard to give away. I was really torn and if it got stolen and neither of us got it id be super sad. Glad you liked everything! I forgot some of the stuff I put in there, I just went into my shop and stuck anything that seemed cool into the box. I'm really happy the shirt fit. I've been trying to find it a good home for like 4 years. I actually got it in a thrift shop in the Seattle area when I was out there so it has some serious miles on it by now.
