February 3, 2003What's in the box??Jeff receives this mysteriously brown wrapped package from Brian the other day. On the outside were instructions to not open until February 2. Shortly after midnight Saturday/Sunday he unwraps it. (First checking out the url on the back, what a cool idea Brian!) Lincoln logs! At first we were slightly confused..we gave Brian a set of lincoln logs at Christmas and thought maybe he was giving them back. But no, I had seen his set up in his room, so that can't be. The note said he noticed Jeff checking this 'gift' out when we were in his room, so we figured, ok, I guess he thought we'd like to play with some too. Check out the conversation Brian and I had this afternoon: Peer 2 all: did you guys figure out jeff's little toys? Mac8Girl: it was so funny..he was so perplexed by what it was that he opened it just after midnight. But you know, he never opened the actual box. We assume it's lincoln logs Peer 2 all: took me half an hour to figure out how to [insert slight hint here] on mine. Peer 2 all: you haven't opened it? Peer 2 all: it's not lincoln logs. Mac8Girl: lol! he's going to shit Peer 2 all: he thanked me today for lincoln logs. i thoguht he was kidding Peer 2 all: that's HIS box. i just needed a box Peer 2 all: ohmylord. Peer 2 all: do me a favor and smack that kid. Peer 2 all: what a putz. Peer 2 all: why would I send him lincoln logs? you guys just gave ME lincoln logs? did you guys joke all day about how senile Brian's gotten? Peer 2 all: hehe Mac8Girl: well, he kinda wondered, he was like "are these the same ones we sent Brian?" as in the same box and contents, like you never opened it. I told him no, cause you had yours set up already and that you must have sent him the same because he was looking at yours (which you mentioned in the note that he had done) Peer 2 all: ah... Mac8Girl: this is so funny Peer 2 all: my lord. Peer 2 all: no. it's not lincoln logs Mac8Girl: hang on, lemme send him this conversation Peer 2 all: this is funny So let this be a lesson to you all...never assume what's on the outside of the box is what's actually on the inside! At this moment Jeff is rushing home to open the box :) **11:14PM Check it out! These are awesome, thanks Brian!!

My goal was to be cryptic enough that the virtual card wouldn't spoil things if you hadn't yet unwrapped it. Reading it back now, I can see that it TOTALLY fits if you had "lincoln logs" in mind. hahaha that rules. So yes, kids. Never judge a book by it's cover!
