      Mac, I'm not sure what time continuity it's going to be set in but I thought the same thing.

      Eli, I can;t watch Top Gear since I read one of Jeremy Clarksons books, the man really is a twat of Piers Morgan like proportions.

                went outside to drive to work this morning.

                my door latch was frozen so once I opened the car door it wouldnt latch shut.

                then my battery was dead.

                then when i got out of the car the door wouldn't shut again.

                so i slammed the shit out of it, knocking my coffee off the roof and splashing it on my busters and 1ks.

                so then I had to run inside and wipe it off.

                and i didn't get to drink my fucking delicious coffee.

                not a good start to the day.

                (rest of the day was uneventful. then I picked up Duke Ellington & Peggy Lee records on the way home)

                  This rant is @ Australian Quarantine.

                  I purchased a Tom Bihn bag; the Brain Bag. Shipped super fast ETC. UPS called me up saying that Quarantine would not release it because it said "Brain", and as such needed to know the composition. Telling them it was a bag (as stated on the box) didn't count as 'the system' flags all things that say Brain.

                  Ended up paying a $75 fee due to the word brain being on the packaging slip. That's about 70% of the cost of the bag! Better be freaking good!

                        You should write Tom Bihn an email about that.  It seems that they might want to rethink the wording on their packing slips and customs forms.  Surely you aren't the only customer that's going to have this experience.  I'm sure they'd rather not make their customers have to deal with that headache.

                          ^funnily enough I did just that. Wasn't after anything from them, just a FYI so it doesn't happen to others. They responded with thanks + free shipping on my next order, which is more than I was expecting and super decent of them.

                            Puts me in mind of my (godawful!!!) experiences with German Customs, which, alas, could not be resolved so easily. Good luck with coping with your quarantine system…..and you know what to tell the seller when you'll buy some real brain next time..... 😉

                              Glad to hear they responded so favorably!  Bummer you had to deal with that in the first place, though.

                                With the intense travel schedule I just had and all of the germs I was exposed to, it was inevitable that I would catch a cold. Well, I did. To make matters worse, I managed to either break or really bruise a rib by leaning over a seat-back in a van, and lifting a heavy briefcase and using my chest as a fulcrum to leverage the bag from the floor behind the seat. Needless to say, sneezing, coughing, and breathing are extremely painful.

                                    Having been the victim of identity fraud myself, I feel your pain. Hopefully, you aren't on the hook for anything.

                                      Luckily Amex has always had my back. I checked other cards as well and I think I'm ok unless a broader ID theft conspiracy is in play. We'll see!

                                        It's great you keep such a close eye on your accounts. It's really important these days.

                                        I was overseas last week, and had a mysterious charge from Millington, TN. Needless to say, I canceled my card immediately. It's really too bad though, as I just memorized the number.
