      ^ I didn't sleep too well.

      Rant - Tried to send the beer tour shirt, complete with beer, and a second parcel containing goodies for Mr and Mrs Seawolf, one package weight 3.5kg and the other 4.5kg. The Royal Mail quote to mail them both was £110 !!! Just had a quote from Fedex who will mail them both for £63. How does our postal service still operate?  😠

      Made in England, clothed in Japan, fed in America and drunk in Belgium !

        Wow it's the opposite here. USPS is an enumerated power in our constitution though.

        Think it, be it.

          ^I just sent 3.3KG's to the UK from here for $103AUD, likely to take 2 weeks and is untracked. Australian post office has been taking lessons from the UK posties, or vice versa? 😛

              USPS has artificial pricing. The whole rationale for it being an enumerated power was to ensure that communications to remote areas would cost roughly the same as to populous areas. This was considered a matter of national security.

              The biggest threat to them economically is that they have to reserve future pension funds going forward. Pretty stupid, can't think of any private business with that kind of burden.

              Think it, be it.

                Yes, $43AUD to send you some TimTams. You're worth every cent of it mate, but I wish Australia Post wasn't such a ball ache. I'll be sending IHSH-20 back by any other courier don't worry 🙂

                    So, the "y" key on my Apple bluetooth keyboard stopped working.  So I bought a new keyboard.  Paired it up and hey presto, the "y" key still did not work.  Re-booted the Mac and yes, you've got it, the "y" started working…..oh well, now have a clean key board....Feck feck feck

                            the forum looks amazing. i guess that it has been a hot minute since i was last around, but wow, this spread is clean and neat as all hell. i'm a little upset i have to go to work right now because i really wanna dig through all of the awesome new features and caveats that this new design has. oh well, until later i suppose.

                                    i'm sure someone's driving home with a fresh piece of deer in the back of his drunk, smiling and all 😃
                                    first thing i thought about when reading it…PALEO Jeff! 😛

                                    ...well actually it was the 2nd thing, since the 1st one was if you're ok and all!
                                    enjoy the deer brother! 😉

                                      I did not quarter the deer on the side of the road. The thing pretty much exploded it was everywhere. It fell off a hill onto the road. In front of my car. I ran it over and it got stuck and was dragged roughly 50 feet before it shot out the back of my prius. Destroyed my front spoiler and hopefully didnt do any damage to the under carriage.
