Dear Master of the Crap Seven:
I humbly request to be added to the list for Series Seven. I have read Rule #11. Check out my post count and you will see that this message gets me to 150....I have been soooo anxious for this day to arrive!
I've read all of the other rules and promise to comply. AND, some time ago @lascaucaveman offered to throw rocks at my house if I fail....he lives just a few miles from me.
Last, please know that I have some nice bits of crap rat-holed for the day the glorious box comes to me.
Thanks in advance for your consideration!!

It is a little backed up. Still three on the Sixth Edition. Stalled a little, but not with someone we should be worried about, unless something happened to him.

I love this changing at the guards we see simultaneously in the two threads. It's good ritual.

Five days is well within your allotted time. It just feels longer when the three people before you turned it around in two days each.

This is fantastic. I'm just in the wrong country. Maybe I could post something nice to the next recipient just so I feel a part of it...

Feel free to do that! You might even get something in return.

It's Official! Series Seven of the BOC begins!!!
Well here we go everyone!!!!
The box arrives safely at my house in Iowa yesterday. I have to say, I love the new liner that was no there the last time. Very cool!! Here are the pics from the arrival:
First Grimm was very interested:
Box o Crap by Christopher Andress, on Flickr
Then once I got it on the table, ZB (Zaphod Beeblebrox) had to check it out as well. He climbed inside, but I was not quick enough to get a pic...

I still need to figure out what goes in, so it will likely not ship until Monday, but still a decent turnaround. But heck, I am the Crapmaster...

The Box 'O Crap is being shipped out today to @jeirvine so look out for it! Sorry though it went out yesterday, but my wife said it is still in her trunk as she did not make it yesterday.

Will the list on the initial post be edited? I don't see John on the list. Running on fumes today, so I probably missed it. Thought I should mention it though.
Also, I'm looking at the simplified (mobile?) version, so handle links might be elided.
