kohnfused1	post #1  on November 16, 2006 - 11:25 AM PST   Just wanted to know if anyone else is/are having mail delays recently? It seems that the "PO" has been a little lax in their service lately and it's messing up my "movie availability schedule", per se. Is it officially, "Holiday Mail Hell", yet?

I expect it to falter after Thanksgiving.

The disc I was supposed to receive last Friday, I just got yesterday and returned today. Boo hoo...hoo! Poor me. Yeah, yeah, complain, complain. Well, there's nothing else to do. Maybe stand out in the drizzle outside. For the time being, that is. :-)

I was about to assume the disc was lost in the mail when it showed up yesterday. The whole Vetern's Day thing kinda slipped my mind.
