You meant out of the overn red, right? Because if you mean the other way then you might want to see a gastroenterologist.

EEK! No? How about if I bring my in-line walker and you just hold on to it while I spin you? We could bill ourselves as the Flying Dentures and Support Hose Follies. The Today Show could film us since they're right there. We could be rich! Whee

Ranting I just received my quarterly 401k report. Lost a tenth of its value this quarter.

Guess I'll have to retire at 80 now. Sadwalk

Seriously? Seriously?? Stupid USPS! I hope you do go bankrupt. If I ask you not to hurl pkgs at my door, don't hurl the fricken pkgs at my door. Don't stand there and tell me you're going to do it if it doesn't say Fragileee on the box. Idiots! Swear to gawd I will let the manufacturers know if something arrives broken that it was your incompetence.

Okay, as long as I can take a limo to NYC rather than the train - I find the train ride so borrrrring bounce

Fragile - not Fragilee - maybe that is the problem here - I wrote Fragile on about 50 boxes in the past week - I'm sure they will make it safe and sound without breakage - it's all in the way one spells it Rofl2

May the woman who is cheating in the contest I'm in fall down a flight of stairs. Seriously. The world doesn't need people that are so petty they would break the rules for a few hundred bucks. You're living in a million dollar home with a husband and 2 kids and you have a job. If you need the cash learn to live within your farkin means but don't play tug of war with someone living on $10,000 a year you .

i had to spend hours in the surgery family waiting room. i can understand little kids in there as a last resort. but can you please have things to entertain the kid?

i spent hours having a kid jump around all the furniture, making all the weird noises he could, and literally an hour of him begging his parents to take him for a walk of the hospital. they didn't have anything for him. a book. a toy. anything. just ignored him.

Limo, really? I hate limos. Every time I get in one I feel like I'm suffocating. I don't know what it is. They're roomier than cars, but they feel so... stifling. The last time I ordered a limo... well not the last time, but the time before that, I sat in the front with the driver. Roll I got into the back, and just did not want to be there. I need to SEE the road. laugh out loud

Girl, I know how to spell fragile. That idiot was right out of A Christmas Story. I felt he'd understand Fragileee better than Fragile. LMAO That ass actually stood there and told me he would not bring pkgs to my door to save his fat ass from walking ten steps. I told him he was the laziest farker I've ever seen. Tax payer dollars are footing the expense if he breaks my chit. I'm expecting two tablets. If there's breakage, I'm going to have a few words with his boss, and his bosses boss. I'll keep moving up the ranks until I get his sorry ass fired. You betcha.

Whenever possible, I choose NOT to use USPS. You can't track your package for crap!

Oh the commercials they ran a couple of years back showing how cheap (er cost friendly) they were vs. FredEx and BrownDog for 2 day air shipments...

Only one problem...they were 2 day air for Fred and Brown, but they were 2~3 day air for USPS...EEK!?

Last I checked 2~3 /= 2 day air.

They should have put up Brown's 3 day air rates vs USPS 2~3 day air rates (not sure if Fred has a 3 day air rate)

The one good thing is that we have a decent mailman er...Letter Carrier....but the rest of the system sucks.

Caution: Tome in progress! Big Grin

Up until about a month and a half ago, we had a great carrier. He was older (he must have retired), but he always brought stuff to my door and knocked to let me know the stuff was there. I gave him Christmas gifts and thanked him for his service every time I'd talk to him. Then these two new guys come in. The younger of the two literally throws the ads on the floor for us to go through rather than placing them in the tray at the bottom of the letter box. I caught him one time and told him that he's leaving a mess for us to have to pick up and we don't appreciate it. Then this other guy, when I'm talking to him yesterday about not hurling my pkgs at my door (the last pkg had huge dents - and you know Amazon uses thick cardboard on their games, right?), he asks me how do I know they're throwing pkgs at my door? HELLO? It sounds like it's being battered by a swat team. He says, well unless you see it you can't know it's someone throwing the pkg at your door. I said, yeah? I know it's you guys because one time I was standing next to my door when the other idiot was on the stairway getting ready to lob one at the door when I opened it. Der! Then he actually stood there and said nobody is going to walk around the banister to take pkgs to my door. I said really? Nobody? He said no, I'm living in a fantasy world if I think anyone would. I said Darryl always brought the pkgs to the door. He said Darryl was special that way. I said look jackass, if anything is broken, I'll make sure the manufacturers know it was you personally who broke it. Then he went into a tirade about how the mail is handled and how they throw pkgs into the trucks without caring if anything is broken or not. Do I not realize how many people handle my pkgs before it gets delivered to me? *Obviously he didn't realize how much of a fark I was not giving* If it's broke - I'm blaming his ass.

You obviously need to move to where I live, my carriers are really nice and politely drop boxes at my front door - and ring my door bell to let me know they have put them there - and like you - I always take care of them at Christmas time - and I've never had a problem with something broken - it's those Joisey carriers
