    There is a commercial on TV that the USPS has Sunday delivery. If this is true he should get his package but again this is a holiday weekend here in the States.

    or afternoons, or Thursdays, or most any other time. It seems to me the only time they do work is when you are out.

    Dear Disgruntled of Nottingham, find enclosed one "gruntled" so you will no longer be "dis". We are at the moment delivering VERY important things to less important people. Remember us kindly next time you want to go POSTAL. : )

    I will not have to. The door:



    The date:



    The calender here in Surprise, surprise! Its not Sunday here it's Saturday! And we do get an occasional visit from the postal people on Saturday . . .



    Shall I take a drive? It is Saturday morning, 85 degrees and sunny, a trip to the post office will take us dangerously near the donut shop . . . I can feel the gravity well very well . . . it is pulling my Ford Prefect Explorer in . . . mayday! mayday! Major Dave to ground control . . .

    I'm really excited!
    It's almost as if I was the recipient of the gift.
    Dave!
    Should you increase the level of curiosity by posting just a little detail of the gift and letting our friends guess it all?

    Well come on Dave. open it. The suspenders are killing me.

    I must say Joaquim has riddled it well . . .

    A riddle:

    Too big for our tables,
    Small and deadly yet.
    Dreams of red for an entire Century
    Clipper's craftiness is perfect to honor it.

    Out the door The faithful steed awaits to transport, next stop nirvana! With an iced vanilla coffee please . . .



    What do you mean Mrs. Clipper? I have to shampoo the carpets FIRST????!



    Some times she is no fun . . .

    I'm not the owner of the thing anymore, so I can't publish it before Dave's do it.

    But I'll post one last teaser before Clipper's releases the information. Here it is.

    More un-dissed if you read Clipper's remark again Karl.
    Is that worse than being dissed?
