Here are the results of the drawing. Find your name in the first column, send POS to name in the second column. PM with addresses will be sent out today.

For those who the suspence is killing them, I didn't use a hat. I put all names in a column A in a spreadsheet, LibreOffice 7.3.0.3 Calc, and sorted them alphabetically. I copied them to column B.
I then used the =RAND() function(which generates a random number(well not actually totally random as computers are incapable of true random numbers, see: https://www.howtogeek.com/183051/htg-ex ... m-numbers/)) in column C next to each name. I then sorted column B sequentially using the number in column C to sort by.
No third parties were contracted to audit the process, and if you have a problem with that I have some suggestions of where to put your new POS. ;)

That’s okay, I expect Wade will restore the karmic balance. And if you feel compelled to apologize in advance, it’s probable that no apology would be sufficient, anyway.

It goes around, it comes around, then it goes again. Has been circling for eons.

I want to say that we don’t know each other but no means did I intend this package to anyone in specific, as you see the process was carried out with the utter most professionalism in order to exchange names. That being said your package of joy will be in the mail AM tomorrow because I can’t wait to get this shi$ out of my garage. It’s almost as good as the one day a year the county allows me to put tires on the curb for them to pick up.

The only problem, Jamie, is there will be an equally rank package heading your direction by someone else. ::facepalm::

Hopefully there will be no fatalities; past POS episodes have only resulted in mild illness.

With the focus on the environment by the current administration, I hope we don't all end up on a EPA and/or Homeland Security watch list.

Good point, Kolvir!
I am sorry that you drew the short straw this year, as I got your name.
I will be sure to send it anonymously, in case the EPA flags it!
I mean, there's no use in both of us going to jail!

My box goes out Monday AM, I'll have to slide into the PO and beat it out quick before they catch a drift of it. Of I should say a sniff. Hopefully the bubble wrap will cover it up. Heaven knows the bubble wrap wasn't necessary to protect precious stuff!

Sorry to report that I had a lot of problems shipping your POS box. I didnt want to haul the box down to the Post Office even in the trunk of my car, so I called to have it picked up. When they got here they saw the fumes emanating from the box and refused to take it. So I tried other package delivery services and same thing. Finally I found one that would take it, their delivery truck is pictured below. Keep an eye out for it.

On the way to tongue river. Luckily it only has to travel to the next state, less time to "ripen" further. thanks

2 lbs. and 9 ozs. of the finest cutlery and packaging material east of the Mississippi headed to Rockford IL - with any luck it will pass all inspections and land safely later this week ::nod::
