I think I'll try one.It just makes me a little nervous that it can light Wrigley Field....
I think right now, yes. I think Drott ordered one in a co-op.
Ack! Internet went down!!! Thank heavens shipping was done before it happened. I shudder to think of having to stand there while postal guy weighed them all. Yep, postal guy. Our regular lady transferred to a different post office, leaving us all freaking out. Especially postal guy, who was just a fill in/trainee.
At least we are up and running again. *whew*
Victor is as handsome as his pic Adam. He just doesn't behave. He does know how, he just chooses to be a nut.
What did I miss????

Paul, thanks for the pic, now I can think about it while I wait... not so patiently of course.
Yes I have an I taste comming.But I realy realy want a Groove.
I'm liking the built in batterys.The darwin has me spoiled.
I ordered one...we'll see....If nothing else I can use it to restart my car battery ....
Well folks, it's time for me to go to bed. I've been super tired all day and now that the kids are asleep it's my turn. Hope everyone has a good night. See everyone tomorrow.
I got a scary text from the boys while I was on a road trip a few years ago - they were painting the bathroom.My wife just sent me a picture of the bathroom. She's repainting it. She bought a bath mat set with the mat, toilet bib (I dont know what theyre really called), shower curtain, and the thing that hangs at the top of the curtain. (if I get to technical, let me know). She had a paint matched to one of the colors in the mat, and though it matches the mat perfectly, it looks like yellow baby poop when its on the walls. Ive also found out that she doesnt remove things like outlet covers, light fixtures, towel rods, or the one that amazed me the most, the shower curtain rod. Its spring loaded. It will literally come down in less than 2 seconds. I asked her if she took it down then put it back up once the paint was dry, her reply was a simple "Umm..."
It actually turned out to be a very nice job, except for the minor detail of them staining a maple cabinet a dark walnut color. Glad your internet came back!
We had a new chunk of software released at the PO on Monday, which made it torture for anyone in our line.
They changed the program for the way we type in customs information, and it could take between 5 to 10 minutes for each piece to wait for the screen to load and to enter the info. It doesn't sound too bad, until you realize that some of our customers send LOTS of international mail. One poor lady was mailing about 15 calendars to Japan, and an unfortunate man was mailing about 10 packages of camera parts to other countries. Each of these transactions took FOREVER to get through. Not to mention it still had lots of bugs - I kept getting script error messages, and had to hit the "submit" key umpteen times before it would accept it. Tuesday it had been changed back to the old program! 
OMG... I know about the new customs things.It's AWFUL.....I mail about 90/100 packages a week internationally...I and my post office friend were pulling our hair out for about a month before Christmas.She resorted to putting them in after closing..We only have 2 windows and if a Passport and me were taking up windows it was hell day at the post office....Happy Ending though at least for me.Etsy began offering shipping on the site right at the nick of time...I can print everything at home and it's already to go..LIFESAVER literally..People were plotting to have me assassinated...It good have gotten ugly...

Why do the powers that be have to mix things up at the post office? It will be working just fine, then they "fix" it. Ugh from both sides of the counter.
I am feeling really sorry for postal guy, he had no clue this was coming. This morning he got a call to hurry up and open, that he was full time for now. He's retired, took the job for a few hours out of his wife's hair.

Good night James!
Stretchy, this was the "new and improved" version that was released on Monday. The one we had been using was pretty easy to read and fill in the info, even though it was a PITA to do when the line was long. They changed the way it displayed on our monitor, and wouldn't allow you to skip sections that weren't used like the old way did. It was horribly not user friendly, you couldn't even read the print on screen to see what data they wanted entered in the fields.

I can't like this....The other was maddening....I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am...I don't understand why they changed it to begin with...
Good night James!
