anyone interested can use my avatar. It is the Greek pattern from a Rolls razor.

Awesome!

I thought there was something to do with air shipping volatile chemicals as well... hmmm

I kind of thought so, too. I was on the USPS site last night, and found the same list the woman on the phone (I almost spelled that with an 'f' -- Good Lord! :happy102) read off to me. But I felt I should double check thinking maybe I missed something. After standing in line at the local PO, I got the straight "NO." That's when I called UPS and FedEX and got outrageous quotes. So I figured I'd call the USPS to see if I got a different response. So, after two "yes"es and a "no," I'm going to say "yes." If something happens at the PO later, well, if worse comes to worst I'll just refund their money and relist, I guess.....


Thanks Rodd...

Hi Everybody! Back from 3 days in Miami in Techno music hell. Had the most awful travel day in my life yesterday. Big money awful. Hate the airlines.

morning guys

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

did you remember sunscreen on your head?

Day 1, no. Day 2, wore a hat. got a little sunburn but not bad at all.
Had the worst travel day ever. Arrived at Miami airport at 7:30am to leave at 8am. They said I was too late AND cancelled my ticket. So to get home I had to buy a one way ticket even though I paid for a round trip ticket.
$700 and 8 hours later I was home. Upset and broke.

I would be calling and raising some hell about that one Ray.

Sitting here with no spare cash for the 'bay, but some ADs in full roar...

Think a old style Micromatic would be a fair trade for a working Esterbrook J pen, or should I sweeten the pot with a Slim or two?

Which airline was this, Ray?

Much more than fair; I'd say an Estie with non-amazing nib in great shape should be worth about $25-$30.

Oh, hi everyone! Home for lunch, making some appointments, catching up here. The sun is shining and the snow is melting! :bounce015

Ray, they've GOT to be able to fix that. Talk to the furthest-up-the-chain manager you can get your hands on. Don't back down.

did you see Micah's work a page or so back?

yeah, all that....
and if that doesn't work, tell them Chuck Norris is on his way with a BB gun....

Already have that planned Tracy. More than pissed off.

Northwest cancelled my ticket WITH THE PLANE STILL ON THE GROUND.

I hope so Tom.
American is the one that had to charge me $700 to get home.

Never dealt with Northwest, but wow. That's slightly ridiculous. Were you checking any baggage? If you weren't, it would be even more crazy.
