The last 6 emails just went out. If you didn't get one, check your spam.
Sorry for the additional delay, I had a plumbing crisis last night.

Bladebuddy, you have a package inbound, UPS #1zxg9979yw07052203
Not to be coarse, but it is a good thing the driver is already wearing brown!!
Kolvir, thank you for guiding us through this for another year, especially when you already had so much going on. May God bless you for your efforts!

Thanks so much reverand.
I feel bad about the delays, especially since If I drew them out of a hat like they used to, it would have been quicker.
I've got a few more tweaks to do, like hiding address 2 on the emails if empty, and dealing with errors that might crash it, like the email rate limit I ran into. It's almost ready, including the form website (though I want to figure out a more graceful way to handle the alternative page for people with older devices), to be as simple as just starting a couple of programs to automatically run the whole exchange.
It's up on GitHub, link in my profile, if there are any python or real web developers out there; feel free to submit a pull request.

Thanks for the warning. Reverand. I’ll be taking cover soon.
Kolvir, I don’t have an address to send my poo to yet. Sending a PM.

Philco you should sense something by now. I put some patchouli in to mask the smell. My only concern is if it mutates…..

Well Warhorse, it is on the way. I don't know you personally and after this you will probably want to keep it that way. Get a little Lysol ready and pay no attention to the EPA trucks driving in front of your house nor to the buzzards circling over head. It is supposed to arrive on Thursday but it is the USPS and it is a box of poop. I wish our first interaction could have been different. Enjoy.

Your box is on the way. I could not get any of the shippers to take it, so I had to "borrow" a B1B from Ellsworth and deliver it myself.

Well, someone has to go first so I reckon it might as well be me. How he managed to get my package delivered so fast is a mystery to me, but Scott's (Runner 4 Knives) donation showed up in my mailbox this morning. Apparently he misunderstood what POS stands for because the load of knives he sent me hardly had even a wiff of poo about them. When I opened the box it felt more like Christmas than POS Day. 
Below are some photos I snapped on the run. Among other items, there was a beautiful minty Queen City trapper and a sweet little two blade congress by E. Weck & Co., an old time Sheffield made horseman's knife, a Victorinox florist knife, and an great old Shapleigh butcher knife. He included a Douk Douk knife, the first of that line I've owned. It snaps like a gator. There was a cool Gerber frame lock, a Mercator single blade, and a very cool old straight razor by Waterville Cutlery. There was also an IXL marked thing with stag handles that I'm thinking might have been used to trim horse hooves. (I'm no farrier.) There was more but I'm getting writers cramps from all this typing.
Scott, thank you for your amazing generosity. It is much appreciated, but I can't help but think back to a scene from the movie "The Jerk" where the old man teaches Steve Martin the difference between sh*t and Shinola.
I think you sent me a box of Shinola by mistake. Thanks buddy!

A large package arrived mysteriously on my front porch today...after wafting away as much of the fumes as I could, I opened it to find these little treasures. Quite a number of Frost and a couple of Barracuda tactical, plus a cute little Victorinox, a couple Rhode Island knives (Providence and Imperial) and a no-name stockman. In addition, several related small tools, a number of seashells, and all this was packed with a generous amount of tote bags! Thanks, smalleyds!

You’re welcome. Beresman, maybe the tote bags will be worth keeping.
Thanks for the heads up, Knifegnome. If you could have let me know, I could have driven & picked up my poop. LOL.

Beresman has played this game before, I see he’s an old pro at it!!! Came home to a stench so bad the yard man said he’ll have to come back another time!!! As the definition of POS rolled out one piece at a time, couple things caught my eye. An old tuxedo WH Morley, a decent Wenger and a Queen trapper. However there is a Swiza in the exact configuration I’ve been eyeballing and haven’t pulled the trigger on yet!!!! Thank you sir!!!! (Which reminds me I gotta send out a package!) Thanks again to Kolvir for managing this mess!
