Hi Pinal,
I believe that in these boxes are books. Which books exactly – hard to say – probably the ones you’re the author is.
——————
Now, for the other contest – I have 149 friends on Facebook. Most of them programmers with interest in SQL Server. So, I’d guess that at least 30 of my friends like your page.
Another guess – these boxes contain some of your stuff because you’re moving to a new place!
I also like MJ guess :)
