| I'm just poking fun. We collect stuff. We're already neurotic. What's that saying? Psychotics build castles in the air. Neurotics clean them. |

Quote:Originally Posted by DrWatson A friend of mine in Stanton Island is beyond neurotic. He has 1 full bedroom (I mean full), his garage almost full, a room at his mom's house full, and his living room is now over flowing with boxes. He might be considered a hoarder. I try to buy some books every now and again, but he won't sell diddly. He says "If I sell them, then I won't have them"... Ummm, ok.... |

 I'd like to say I still turned out alright, but that would be a lie.

| If anyone hasn't sent in their submissions, they'd better hop to it. The USPS is already running behind on promised delivery dates. At this point, I might suggest FedEx or UPS. | ||

| @DrWatson I will take that advice. Going to be at Fed-Ex in the morning. 2 Day Express... Cheap compared to all of the pressing fees I saved... |

Quote:Originally Posted by Nearmint67 31 books securely packed and shipped out 2 day express guaranteed by 12:00 noon on Friday. That was a lab marathon. Glad it's over. No way I would want to do all that everyday. Gotta have big time patience to be on team Ricketts.... |

| Mailed: 12-2 Delivered: 12-5 Expected turnaround: 40 business days Expected return by: 2-14-25 (accounting for lack of motivation to work at a faster pace during holidays and too many hangovers) I forgot about VSP.. That might add 4 weeks. See you in March. |

| I will never use USPS for anything with a delivery deadline again. Four parcels still floundering about in the USPS ether. |

| @DrWatson Wow, that's frustrating. Glad I took your advice and went to Fed-Ex. It was a little spendy, but they should be delivered by noon tomorrow. Hopefully... |

| I mailed six packages, all going to Texas, and all took different routes and times. The only one left hanging is one of the Secret Santa gift boxes. It hasn't moved since December 3rd. I filed a missing package with USPS and it's insured. I hope it starts moving again soon because it's got some pretty neat stuff in it. | ||
