Manitou, the bike, paralyzed on the way home last weekends rally, second time tis summer, never been acting up before…while trying to figure out what's wrong with it I noticed I had burnt huge hole in my 634S cuff in the exhaust, and kicked a 2 euro size whole in the leather of my steelcapped Chippewas while trying to start the fekkin' ride...
Doh, sleeped 2 hours on the roadside while waiting pick-up, just to get back home to seriously super pissed off wife who nagged and ranted all evening...still doin' that. Life is SO great sometimes...

Some guy is trying to tell me it costs 27 euro to send a cassette from Austria to Canada….HA!
-
We're talking an ordinary audio cassette? Shouldn't run afoul of any odd measurement limits. Hell, you can pop it into a padded envelope and mail it that way. Seems like anything over 10€ is questionable.
-
Haha, yea one audio cassette. I told him that same thing, and provided evidence of how much it should cost. And he kept it was insisting it was more and came back with a calculation for envelope that was 15"x10". I told him a regular padded envolope should be half that size.
He came back with "ok, sorry! C4 letter works too." and reduced the cost by 20 euros…

Thanks to you for offering to proxy Eli. Once I mentioned that he could proxy it, he sent me the new invoice. So something convinced him.
-
There goes that profit margin…
-
My thought exactly…

Can not be the same fellar, but one time this guy took a bit of time to ship me a rather expensive rec… I told him me and a mate were ready for a li'l trip to Germany to come see him (and I wasn't kidding)... Couple of hours later I got me tracking #...
Same with this French guy who owed me money... Found a French mate who had seen him at a local punkshow... PM'ed him saying what he was wearing... Oh that money was wired to me faster than lightning...

What a bitch of a day. For some reason, UPS World Ship only works under Windows and they won't load it onto a Mac running VMWare. So we have a Dell lap top just for shipping. It's only 3 months old as the previous one crapped out. Today it stopped communicating with the printer, it can see it, knows it's there but wont effing print. Tried all the usual shit like deleting and reinstalling. So to actually be able to ship we have had to print to Adobe, take the files to one of the Macs and print. It has taken feckin ages. To crown it all, in the moving of memory sticks backwards and feckin forwards I knocked a cup of coffee over the key board and mouse of my Big Mac. New keyboard required. Paula is feckin off on Holiday for a week on Monday - I suspect she thinks I'll have it all sorted when she comes back….
