Not as yet. I’ll check later this afternoon.

Glad you liked yours.

I’m glad you like them. I liked the color of the Estes glass and I liked the design of the Colorado glass. I couldn’t decide which one to pick :). I thought “if I stand here all day, they are going to think I’m weird(er).”

Lol!

And I noticed I called Estes Park “Fort Estes” - it’s one of those mental things I can’t get over. I don’t know why I keep doing it.

I loved the cobalt blue too - soooo pretty. Thanks so much again 🙂

Got mine! Thanks, **zoid**. Tres kewl! It’s a Chicago “shot” glass in the shape of a pistol with Al Capone on it.

I’m glad you like it and it got there in one piece, but looking at the bounty you sent **labtrash** I must say I’m feeling a little inferior 😉

**Kenner** , I hope there isn’t a problem with delivery on the glass I sent you. It’s been eleven days since I sent it.

Yeah! I got my shot glass from S. Carolina. And that keychain is going on my new bike. I might see if I can use the 'gator tooth to fill a gap :D.

Thank you! Labtrash!

If yours didn’t arrive I can send one. I know that the person I sent to got theirs, so it wouldn’t be any trouble to send to someone else.

LOL - I was wondering the same thing 😃

Then I remembered it took me a good while to get my act in gear and send mine off to it’s destination so I’m not giving up hope just yet…

I haven’t received one, and I’m embarrassed to say I haven’t yet sent one off to my recipient, either. But I finished it (I got crafty!) and it’s on my desk! I have a box! And some other pointless-yet-fun things to add to the package! I promise to mail it off on Monday! Priority Mail, even!

So glad you posted - I’ve sent yours to you - but after I arranged to have it mailed, the company I ordered it from said “allow 10-14 days for processing.”

I know they finally charged my credit card last week - so you should be getting something from me any day now!!

**feppytweed** , if **E=I\*R** or **zoid** ’s exchange partner craps out, I’ll send them something. I just need their addresses.

**melodyharmonious** , thank you VERY much for the swanky and substantial UNC Charlotte shot glass! I giggled a little at their packing job, because it was such overkill, but hey, it made it in one piece.

And **E=I\*R It’s the Law** , I sent yours last week, so you should have it by now. Hope you like it.

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. There are a handful of people I haven’t heard from about receiving their glass.

Atomic Mama  
KennerTheGreat (Baker posted it, have you received it?)  
zoid  
Greedy Smurf  
Mr Bus Guy

I’m about to send out emails or PMs to see what the holdup is.
