Hmm just got home and there was a notification from the post office stating I had a package to pick up! As I'm not expecting anything else I'm thinking this could be my WEE package. We will know shortly as I am off to the post office right now. I'll be back in a bit!

It was my WEE package! :p First off let me start by saying that Bent=AWESOME!!!! You've really out done yourself my dear!

I opened the box and the first thing I saw was a whole lot of orange! lol

The first thing I pulled out was an orange battery operated lantern in the shape of a monkey!!! Oh and let us not think that Bent stints on anything, because as I dug through the box I happened upon the 3AA batteries needed for the lantern...but then I put the batteries in the lantern and realized they were DEAD! That's right peeps he sent me dead batteries! :p

Next were a pair of orange butterfly wings with and orangy pink star in the middle! I noticed they had little elastic hoops, so I donned the wings while I was going through the rest of the box!

Next up was a Complimentary Cracker Barrel roadway Map. According to the map Carcker Barrel provides "Good country cookin' for travellers and neighbors alike" Should I ever choose to go on a road trip through Americaland, I'll know where to eat. :)

Next was a two dollar bill, I'll save that for my stop at Cracker Barrel! The fact that it was a bill is quiet neat as here in canadaland we have a $2 coin, I haven't seen a two dollar bill forever!

A massive magnet in the shape of a ribbon that says GOD BLESS THE USA. I assume it's for your car, but this is Canadaland so it's going on my fridge!

I then happened upon a little book which turned out to be The Definitive Guide To the Worlds Finest Cocktails, which is quite appropriate for the Trickster's resident barwench! Not to mention I plan on working my way through it in RL, starting with the Morning Lush!

Then it was on to more orange with a little hand held fan also with dead batteries inside! There's a T on it, I'm assuming that's for Tennessee.

There was a bluish purple chunk of glass not sure what it i, but it's acutally very pretty!

Next was a St. Christophers Medal which I actually found quite touching as he is the patron saint of travel. Not to mention he is rumored to have helped travelers for a dangerous river by carrying them accross on his back and I have just been through a massive flood!

Last but not least was a little figurine of a great dane with devils horns and a cape on! If that doesn't say Bent I don't know what does! He's now perched beside me on my computer desk, but I will be taking him to work with me tomorrow, where he will be placed in a spot of honour in the lab!

So well done Bent! You're fantabulous! :gaes-orfantal:

Curious as to whether that was all Volunteer Orange.

Edit: And, you'll want to eat breakfast at the Cracker Barrel. They serve it anytime.

Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

Yes I think that is it, it definitely seems like the colour of the fan and the lantern at least. The butterfly wings are a lighter orange.

The fan works...alas the lantern does not. New batteries, and you'll get a little surprise from the fan. Glad you liked it TB, I wasn't sure, most of the others got real elaborate things, but Im kinda clumsy when giving things.

No I loved all of the stuff Bent! They were actually neat because I could tell thought had been put into it and most of them made me laugh! You've put me to shame really I only sent SB four items! :) I was flooded out of my house and staying at a hotel at the time so I was forced to go out and hunt stuff down at the store I was limited as to what I could find. I feel like I should be sending SB another package!

The St. Christopher Medalian was actually blessed by a cardinal of the catholic church. While not catholic myself, I still think its neat. And of course, Christopher is my name. The blue thing is just pretty. And the fan was my favorite.

Well I was raised Catholic so I recognized the medalion right away the blue thing is very pretty. I am going to use it as a paper weight for my patient charts. As to the fan I have to go out and get some AAA batteries so I can see what it does.
