The Elephant Has Landed!

My white elephant arrived! Thanks to FairyChatMom, it was a ray of sunshine yesterday when I came home to find it. Among the goodies were:

The famous square glass jar, originally sent by The Mighty Tiki God. Hah! (Ya know, I think this just might end up in Texas. <evil grin> ) It contained a purple beanie baby, most disturbing.

A lighting fixure for an entertainment center. Hmm, this has MacQuarium light written all over it. (Actually, it has Made in Korea written all over it, but I digress)

Sample packets of sunblock. Hmm, I might just use this on my newly shaved cranium. :slight_smile:

A suspicious looking sock containg random subway and pizza tokens. Ha! I even have a use for this. I’m making a suit of armor consisting of strange/foreign coins riveted to leather. These will do nicely.

An electric timer. Maybe I can use this to control the MacQuarium.

A pair of insoles, unused. Mmmm, no use for these right now, maybe they need to go to Texas. :slight_smile:

That’s all I can remember right now. Thanks bunches FCM. And there are two Dopers out there who have packages coming from me and moi, don’t despair we’ll get 'em out soon.

Mine has been delayed as well, but whoever gets a pile of old 2400 baud modems, I hope you appreciate it.

(What? No, no, there’s more than that. A few 9600 baud ones, too.)

Actually, the little purple thing is the infamous Tinky-Winky, Jerry Falwell’s embodiment of evil, or something…

Glad it got to ya unscathed. If you’ll forgive the not-so-subtle, potentially suggestive comment that follows, it was my pleasure to empty my drawers for you…

I mailed my elephant on Tuesday morning.

We’ve started a thread on receiving stuff. It’s over here

Posted a pachyderm this afternoon. Should arrive next week sometime. Minnesotans beware. ::evil grin::

I sent mine out this afternoon. I don’t know how long it’s going to take to get there, but the shipping cost more than what the cra…stuff is probably worth. G
