    4 different (different patterns) pieces of Damascus for making razors.
    The package service first didn't believe my po box number was correct. then they didn't know where to find the post office. then they decided it was undeliverable. Now it's returned to send except they claim the sender address was missing

    The package is registered and insured and the sender has the registration paper so I'm sure that it'll work out. I've had thousand dollar packages take a 2 month trip into lala land before and I've stopped worrying about things like this. Still, I would have liked starting on them already.

    I like your attitude Bruno

    There's a gentleman that I know that farms a huge amount of land (he owns 6 wheat combines)(they cost about $450Keach) anyway I once asked him how the weather was treating him and he said "I stopped worrying about things I can't control years ago".

    I try to take that attitude about shipping but it is frustrating when things are 'supposed' to be here or there and it gets messed up.

    Anyone know if Paypal will cover that?
    Tom, has the issue been resolved?

    No and yes. I have forgiven the thief as I cannot shoot someone whom I cannot identify.
    I suppose I could jack with Paypal and waste some time.......

    On a brighter note, YOU have a Norton 1k in the mail!

    All you need now is something in the middle?

    There was an local news piece today about watching out for suspicious activities in your neighborhoods. Burgularies and petty theft increase every year around this time, especially around student neghborhoods.

    Wow. What can I say about the Norton. Thanks. I will have to set something realy special aside for you. I hear you like bay rum.

    The post office is incompetent on your end as well,
    While waiting to drop off a package, the postal employee, helping the guy onfront of me was unsure where the sender wrote their address, do he asked me ,"where do they put their address" so ship UPS
    "If you want it, that's what you do best" - Woz
    "if you ain't bleedin', you ain't learnin'" -me
