They lost 2 checks I mailed in February. A card i sent to Atlanta took 3 weeks. Order from Midway last week with projectiles was busted open and 41 of the 1000 leads were delivered. Somewhere there are 969 leads laying around. Another order from a couple months ago was picked up and let sit for 2 weeks according to tracking.

When a company ships with USPS nowadays you don't know if it will arrive or not. The quality of their service is terrible and shipping rates are absurd yet they are hemorrhaging money.

I enjoyed the last show as much as I disliked the one before.
3 idols have went home in pockets so far.
Looks like the big hunt is on for more idols next week.
There is something about survivor that draws me like a moth to a fire.

It isn't just the post office, Yesterday afternoon, I found this piece of "mail" right here, it was from the local utility company and it basically said "Call - Urgent - We Tried to Contact but Couldn't."

Obviously, they didn't try too hard - they could have hung it on the one fence wire, they certainly didn't as there was no wind yesterday to blow it off.  They could have walked under the one strand of fence wire.  They could have called me because my phone number is on the 5 foot sign right next to where they put this on the ground.   Oh, wait - they could have simply come in the gate, it was open all day.

The thing that bothers me the most in my situation is that I got the run around. The checks came out of Canada that's the bridge companies main office. 
I want to know where my checks got cashed. Locally?  Canada ?
We constantly get others mail in our po box

I'm wondering if I should order the bearing for the other wheel.
It spins great and is tight 
The mill is sawing great

Quote from: fluidpowerpro on May 01, 2024, 04:32:37 PMread on the Google that the needles on spruce are kind of flat and fir is round
I seem to remember the saying that "fir is flat" to help identify fir vs. spruce. I was taught to pick a needle and try to roll it between my finger and thumb. If it rolled it was spruce. If it was flat and didn't want to roll it was fir.

I saw my first hummingbird on the same day Chuck did! The wife put out the feeders a week or so ago but that was the first one I'd seen.

I also tagged an American Goldfinch on Merlin so I know what it's called.

Were their fraudulent attempts to cash them? We are blessed up here our post office is pretty good so far.
