Okay, post #2 is updated and I believe I'm caught up with registrations, at least for the moment.

In other news, this may end up being of relevance for those of you who get a recipient who lives in Texas: WTSO - not shipping to Texas anymore

In general there seem to be a few states where shipping wine into them can be tricky:
Indiana
Massachusetts
Texas

Anyone else have issues?

The most commonly used workaround that I've seen people use for the SS event is to declare that what you're shipping is either olive oil or vinegar. For those with experience with this issue, is it fair to say that that will pretty much always work?

Chris, this may be helpful.

Choosing a winner on "issues" for 2015 was hard ... Annette's vintage port in a steel vault ... that was some ingenuity on the part of Santa. Misbehaving boxes or a sadistic puzzle maker, hmmmm

Status: offline 		OK, I should be caught up again. Looks like we're definitely into two group territory! We have a few new friends joining us - always nice to see - and a few people getting back in the game after breaks of various lengths. All good stuff.

IMPORTANT PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
Everyone - when contacting me with registration info, or indeed for communications of any kind, PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL ME. It's not that I don't like you, it's just that I may miss your message entirely. It's much easier for me to keep track of things via PMs. Thanks peeps.

- Chris

Merry October! My favorite time of year!

M&C are in!

We HATE October
(way too busy for us.)
Then throw in a hurricane or two...
We LOVE the end of October.
When we retire we plan to love all of October.
We'll come and crash with M&C

IN, as always

Hi Everyone -

We wanted to let you know about an idea we want to implement for this year's Secret Santa.

As many of you know, our CT community recently lost an original and a friend to many, Brad Dubner, a.k.a. drycab.

We'd like to use this year's Secret Santa event to honor Brad.

What we're proposing is that EVERYONE send each other A DRY CAB! It would be a wonderful way to remember Brad to have so many cabs being sent out and about, to be enjoyed by all.

The format of the rest of the event will stay the same. However, we imagine that there will be some additional CT community members who will want to participate. Therefore, WE ARE EXTENDING THE REGISTRATION DEADLINE UNTIL FRIDAY, 11/11/16. This will also end up pushing back our shipping deadline until 11/28/16.

Any questions on this, please PM me.

Put on your thinking caps on and start musing about what delightful cab you want to send!

- Chris
