I am digging the business talk going on here.

I wish I could have at this place yesterday. Not a fan but outdoors sounds cool.

I just mentioned what I ship. We own 6 other stores. So we get a fairly good rate as is. I'm sure it will get better, too.

I also wish I was there. Chicago is my favorite team. Was awesome to watch.

That would have been cool

I really considered getting tickets. How often do you get to see them play outdoors? I should have went.

The chances of you having gotten tickets are terrible. You could probably have been struck by lightning easier.

Then again, if you have a lot of money nothing is impossible.

To answer the question of how often, Chicago probably won't happen again. You'll se at least two teams play every January 1st, though.

With 6 stores you must be getting a pretty darn good rate.

Not bad. The only thing I don't like about UPS is all the BS charges on the back end.

I agree with you on that. The one thing about UPS is that when they damage something I usually get taken care of pretty well. It is a big PITA to go thru the steps but I always get my money. I am not sure how USPS would work in these cases.

Not sure about that as well.

Fedex ships our incoming freight from SOA and they always send me a check without asking questions. UPS hasn't done too much damage believe it or not.

I have been pleased with both UPS and Fedex in the damage area. Some people complain but I bet I am lucky to have 1-2 claims a year. I would love to have none but they are human and make mistakes. Always seems to be glass related damage and that is usually a sign that my guys didn't pack it good enough and I still get paid.

I was at my local post office today. The workers get a C, not bad, not great. The customers get an F. 75% do not speak english and 20% cant remember whey they are there. 5% seem to be okay.

I told you to start remembering why you were at the post office, Ray.

I'm back...cleaning up some antique store scores... who're Pepe, ChiChi, and Iguana? don't know them

Like I said, I always get paid. Usually the damage is something stupid (punctured bumper cover or shattered glass) but sometimes it's a shortage. They pay either way.

Alrighty then, I'm back. Three days off from work meant not a lot of time in here so it took me a bit to catch up. I see the Noxema thread went down. The only thing I know about Noxema is my sisters used to slather it all over their faces as teenagers to keep the zits from popping. Who knew it could turn into such a controversial topic?

I tried the Musgo shave sample and it worked pretty good. Problem is the sample containers are a tad small and you don't quite get enough cream I think. That may have been my problem w/ the Speick cream too. Hard tellin.

I did shave #2 w/ a 7o'clock yellow today and TOBS Eton College. Pretty nice shave but some remaining stubble. Maybe the Red IP's are the best for me after all. I'm not 100% satisfied w/ them either but may have to live w/ them. We'll see. Still have some other blades to try.

So it's day two of '09. What's happenin?

Nice snags while 'tiqueing. Matt

I was at the antique store too, but didn't buy anything.
