Nah! That Newport Beach one is too far. If I had a bored friend with an air-conditioned car who wanted to go, I might consider it, but it might get picked up before we could get there. I got one, so I am pleased.

True. My buddy in MIA that is en route tagged along with my other friend last week who scored the other two MIA jars (one for each of us). The third bud thought they were awesome and wanted one so he's off to the races after his own.

Wahey!
The SF one is an excuse for sushi. Not sure I'll be able to get there until after work though so will have to see whether we can get this one or not today. That's a window for someone else! Which would be a shame as I was hoping to get both my nipples pierced and have the pair of sharks teeth dangling.

I nominate this for best post of the day.
The Frenzied Waters' official Twitter has announced that Chicago's drop has been found!

Whoah, the site is now showing a Discovery Channel inset page re-direct, when it used to be fullscreen. Anyone else?

You're too kind! But on further consideration, I think I'd ruin my T-shirts. I'd probably have to construct some sort of protective cuplets.
Oh. Man bra.

Dang. My buddy got to the MIA drop at 5:10 and they were gone, closed shop at 5 sharp.
He's going to try back tomorrow but who knows...

I work in Downtown Dallas, but I'm not in walking distance. The drop is in what most would consider a sketchy area at night. I normally ride DART in to work, but I will have my car on Thursday and can make the drop then if someone else hasn't gotten there already.

Yeah, it was picked up not ten minutes before I arrived to pick it up. That sucks big time. They said the person lived just down the street from the drop. I hope there's one more for next weeek, but NOT on the north side.

418 Beach Street, SF is a quite nice Thai place (for Fisherman's Wharf), but not, as it turns out, where the capsule was. It was upstairs in Tiki Tattoo. I only found this after accosting all the staff in Mood Thai restaurant, interviewing the manager (size years ago it used to be a mexican restaurant and they don't sell shark fin soup) and getting a Thai ice tea in a sort of stake out.
I'm just glad that it wasn't the other way round and I had to get a tattoo.
Not taken photos of the jar yet, but it is HIGHLY perfumed (old lady talcum powder if I'm not mistaken) and will update in a bit.

ATL Atlanta went fast this time. While I hoped to get it today, the shop where it was is closed on Tuesdays so I would have been out of luck anyway. Good that someone got it and redeemed ATL

I went to the location for New York. I couldn't find the capsule. I'm not sure whether I missed it or whether it was retrieved already.
