Well - it's Christmas Eve here, so here's hoping Santa brings you all good things.

And remember - kitties and boost are awesome

Bah! Humbug!

It just doesn't feel like Christmas this year at all. Everyone I know is broke and can barely pay bills as it is, or is out of a job, and everyone feels obligated to buy each other gifts still. Nobody buy me **** and I won't buy you ****. That's my policy.

But yeah, Merry Christmas I guess. Or Merry Give Companies Big Profit Day.

Better inspect it and make sure it's not a used *****. Santa likes to test the gifts first.

Correction, Santa, his elves and reindeer like to test the gifts. Santa is a kinky and nasty bastard like that.

Hey Arthur: do you know anyone using this? Browser Warning

I would really like to buy it but I need to know if it really works as advertised first.

Thanks,

Your item was delivered at 10:58 PM on December 23, 2009 in ARLINGTON, VA 22207.

No joke USPS knocked on my door at 11:00PM last night. This was only after repeated phone calls inquiring why my package that went "put for delivery" on the 18th failed to show up.


I'm expecting another UPS package today, let's see how well that works out.

Happy Christmas everybody!



Brain, I killed my UPS account and moved to Fedex last year after Christmas. Sent a package from Oregon to Idaho 2nd day air on the 18th. Didn't deliver until January 2nd. No refund. No discount. No apology. They stated that deliveries aren't guaranteed the week of christmas except for overnight. Once the original date was missed there is no urgency given to complete the delivery.

I dunno...

I'm waiting on a FedEx two day right now that cost me $65.

It's for $20 worth of adapters to be able to use the 6V/14Ahr batteries in place of the weensy 4Ahr junk that came with my daughter's PowerWheels Jeep. 3.5 times the battery life is great, and I got a deal on the batteries...now just waiting on the stinkin' adapters since they use different plugs.



Merry Christmas everyone...I hope you all enjoy being with family more than the gifts and such this year. I do wish you all good eatin' though.

My guarantee was a from Tiffany & Co. I would have paid for overnight but they had a promotion for guaranteed free shipping before Christmas, since they couldn't fulfill the promise they offered me that $100 gift card. Works for me since her B-day is in Feb. She wasn't expecting anything anyways, so whats something one day late...oh well.

I ordered something on the 21st and got it here via USPS priority mail yesterday (23rd). I was impressed. Too bad my GF is already not expecting a gift tomorrow, guess she'll have to settle for actually getting one.

My girlfriends present order luckily made it in yesterday before I left Auburn to come to Nashville. Everyone elses xmas presents are late though do to me being a slacker. Still not sure what I'm doing for my mom's side of the family, guess I should figure that one out.
