Ray, that certainly is a great dealership! As for USPS I agree. I sent some rare MG parts to a college friend who was restoring one ..... they never showed up. Lesson learned.

Iv'e had a package go from Tucson to Indy to someplace in PA to Indy to some small town south of me to Indy to Akron to me! I sent to of my grandkids Christmas cards the same day to the same address in the same type of envelope and they arrived two weeks apart! I sent my CA daughter an overnight envelope and it didn't arrive after three days. The post office gave me my money back no questions asked! It arrived on the fifth day.

I never count of USPS delivering things on time.

For those of you who might have young ones around, take a look at what parents in Japan can use for those misbehaving little two year old monsters. Get a demon to let them know what he thinks!

I agree with the sentiment- the surveys are getting ridiculous.

I went for an echo last week. I get daily reminders to fill out my survey on how they did.
I went to a hockey game. I get a survey about my experience. My team lost, I gave it a 1.
Would you recommend Adobe to your friends? No, my friends and I don't talk about document readers.

Speaking of surveys.....I returned the rental car and of course I'm advised of survey and their hope they made me happy. I told him the car smelled stale/smoky and that I had emailed and didn't get a response. Hmmm.. I was nice.I told him it wasn't that big a deal, if it really bothered me I would have returned it. Also told him the windshield was filthy. When you are married to a car guy, these things are most noticeable.

The guy told me he hoped I'd give them a chance to make up for the issue with a future rental.

Staying healthy comes with a price sometimes. At the end of the spin class we put our heel on the lower part of the frame of the bike while doing a calf stretch I have done this many, many times. Yesterday, my foot slipped and foot/leg went over to the other side of the frame, making contract with the frame. It hurt like heck, and I have some very nice bruising today from my calf almost to my ankle. Thankfully, it's only tender it doesn't hurt. Day off from the gym due to a 1/2 Marathon in the area, but I did get a two mile walk in.

Ugh I have done similar it does indeed hurt. Getting out of the car and sliding on the ice under the car until your chin/foot slams into the sill under the door comes to mind.

Sounds better to watch than perform that maneuver.
