What an exciting thing to get in the mail! The THB was packed to the brim with all sort of electronic (and non-electronic) goodies.

I enjoyed rummaging through everything, and had to look up a few of the parts to see what they were. I really wanted to grab one of the tiny CRT viewfinders, but decided not to, as my skills aren't yet at a point where I'd be able to do anything with one.

I decided to take these items

• Arduino Uno
• A switch
• Two awesome old transistors
• Some HaD stickers
• New Hampshire Pure Maple syrup
• Hawaii cookie (not in picture)

Also not in any pictures, I took the liberty of pulling the Amazon kindle display (it didn't have the battery or logic board) and replaced it with a fully functioning Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 tablet. The tablet can even do Verizon LTE if you throw a SIM card into it.

After pouring over all of my parts boxes, I found what I thought was a meaningful (for what I have) contribution- I hope that those after me feel the same way. I've included the following

• Five HD44780 compatible 2x20 LCD character displays
• Three mini breadboards
• One capacitor 2200uF at [I forget]v
• Four double sided protoboards
• Small 5v fan
• Ultrasonic range finder
• Two ESP8266-01
• One WS8212B LED
• Breadboard Arduino kit
• a few older HackADay stickers
• Qi wireless charger
• Qi Wireless charger reciever
• Cherry switch that cycles from 0 to 7

But there's a twist!
While packing the box (medium size flat rate isn't much space to work with...), I discovered that I didn't have enough room to fit the PSP back in, the last item to pack in. I re-tried packing everything a few times, but still came out with the same issue. So, I decided to keep the PSP and continue the food addition tradition going by adding a tube of Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies in the little space left. UPDATE: I also added a 30GB iPod Video right before shipping, since there was room and I found said iPod.

First thing tomorrow, I ship the box off to Wisconsin!
