Okay, I said I’d wait longer, but I have all of tomorrow off, so this is a good time to get started. **feppytweed** , if I’m stepping on your toes, I’ll hand it over to you. I guess this will be pretty much the same as previous exchanges. \*\*\* Please\*\*\*, though, if you don’t think you’ll be able to actually send, don’t play. We want lots of players, but no orphans.😃 Send me a PM with your username and real name and mailing address. If you are willing to send overseas, let me know that too. I’ll do my best to match everyone up fairly. A glass is all that’s required, but tucking in cute local stuff is also fun. I have a special shelf where I have all the glasses I’ve collected in past exchanges. It’s fun! Resistance is futile, you will be assimilated. I’ll start doing matchups June 10th, to give folks a weekend to shop! So get your entry in by then. Periodically, until then, I will post who has decided to play. If you’ve sent a PM and don’t see your username, let me know. ---

Okay, the PM’s have been sent. I sure hope I didn’t screw up. Let the shopping for the perfect glass begin. We only had ten or so in this time, I hope I didn’t say or do something wrong. Any questions, get in contact with me. ---

Oh boy, I got a foreign address this time! Just occurred to me to research customs issues shipping booze internationally… ---

There were two non-US addresses this time around. Some players said they will ship international, some did not indicate a willingness to do so. I did my best to match up addresses according to the wishes of the participants. I found that telling one player “Hey, you have ME, heh, heh” was kind of strange. ---

Bought the glass and some extras today! It will go in the mail Tuesday. I really wanted to send, as an extra, some fudge from my favorite chocolate shop here, but with the summer temperatures so high I thought it might get oogy.☹ [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/the-01011th-binary-summer-shotglass-exchange/756036.md?page=2)
