    But there are times that strategy may backfire on them. Woman talking with her husband on her cell phone while suspecting a home intrusion. "Yeah, I love you too baby....YOU IDIOT,,GET OUTTA HERE....No not you baby, the other idiot. I MEAN.........."

    Mr Fed X didn't allow you the courtesy of receiving it by hand?

    Na....
    Them and UPS are on a tight schedule.
    They do anything to cut corners and save time.
    I was sitting in my chair by the door one day. So I could get a package that requried a signature. They backed up down the driveway, ran out of the truck, put a sticker on the door for a non delivery, ran back into the truck. I couldn't get out the door that fast. I had to chase them screaming to stop them.
    These guys do anything to get out of a 20 second stop.
    I hate any package sent by FedX or UPS.
    It's 20 miles to pick up the UPS package if they don't leave it. 55 miles for a FedEx package.
    Don't even get me started when they leave it in the rain. I have to get medicine sent by mail. Seeing $600+ of that either drown or tore up by animals because they won't put it in the package box by the door is nuts, just nuts.

    Pitiful!

    At least USPS has the courtesy of putting packages in plastic bags during bad weather.

    Same here. I usually get the same carrier about 95% of the time. And at the local USPS, they know me because of the packages I mail out from my Ebay sales.

    Even crazier... Why did your cellphone end up in the toilet? Life was much simpler when the phone was in a both, and mounted on the wall.

    I think I just got my answer.
    It seems the African Wild Potato is useful for wound healing when applied directly to the skin and it is also used to treat psoriasis.
