. . . and a paragraph on the back of each one, explaining what each one was to be used as evidence  . . .

Then the judge isn't going to look at the 27 eight-by-ten color glossy pictures with the circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what each one is to be used as evidence.

I bought the 1000S front fender from the classified section on WG a week ago. Shipped using FedEx and I get notifications from FedEx on my phone as to where it is and when it gets here; I got a notification yesterday that it arrived and it’s usually sitting at the front door so I walk to the door and no package. Fortunately I glanced at the walkway to the street as the package is sitting behind the swinging fence doors where it could easily have been snatched. My neighbors are complaining of similar problems of risky locations for the delivered items, and some of the carriers are using golf carts with trailers full of packages as a means to deliver the goods with some packages flying off the golf cart.  I should complain to FedEx about this delivery.

And I have been looking for a 1000S fender for about 4-5 years, so the insurance reimbursement would have been negligible compared to trying to locate another fender.

I ordered some Oxford heated grips from Revzilla a little over two weeks ago. I still haven't seen them. I am just about done with them. I ordered a tire from them this past summer also took over two weeks. It arrived the day before I was to leave on a longer trip.  Fortunately I had made other arrangements. I might not even need the grips by the time they get here.  :evil:

They should invite every addressee to his arraignment. Given the season and their workload, we should all cut USPS, Fedex and UPS drivers (who deliver our packages) some slack though.

At the risk of correcting my elders and betters Tom,  I think it’s mezza mezza, unless the postmen are really really smart in HI. MG Cycle packages are running about three days slower right now.

I ordered a leg brace for my dog Nov 27th and it's not moved from Washington State. Amazon says if it doesn't arrive today then cancel the order tomorrow and try again. I don't like doing that but it just isn't moving, little package must be stuffed somewhere.

I think the Christmas season is messing with the usual delivery schedule for the USPS.  I don't use the others because they charge more.  (FEDEX/UPS)

The guy who delivered my package today was in an unmarked van.  I believe they are using a lot of independent contract delivery persons these days.

An acquaintance of mine drove a double trailer back and forth from Huntsville Alabama airport to the Memphis Airport.  Home every night.  10 hour days, 4 days a week with some overtime.  Full retirement at 55 years old.  Probably not that way for those starting out now.

Just thinking about all the publicity lately around the conditions for Amazon employees and the possible effects it has on things. Wondering if FedEx was the same.
