I think we need more eye candy at this juncture:

That's because you can't read either.

Both tiger8mush and jayshum both put him in his place as well. It seems literate people have no trouble understanding this.

Ahhhh, no. She's English. That's Hammer Horror starlet Madeline Smith:





She went on to play Miss Caruso in the James Bond flick Live and Let Die.

Currently she has a tariff attached to her so be prepared to pay up, much

James:

In what State do you live? Should we understand that it's nowhere near California or even the west coast?

If anyone is still interested in this nonsense, the package as of now is in Jersey City, New Jersey.

Having spoken with a USPS supervisor last week, who was very noncommittal and cryptic with answers to questions, here is what I think is happening - the bar code label doesn't match the written address (mine) on the package. I believe the label, with the tracking number, indicates a Petaluma, California address. Maybe I am wrong. I think the USPS scanning equipment tried to send it to my physical address 3 times and a human being stopped that from happening 3 times. It was then flagged somehow and sent to California, and that delivery never happened either. Now I think it's being returned to the sender. We'll see.

Be that all as it may, I bought and have received 6 nice condition 1948 Bowmans. If these lost cards are in fact returned to Octavio, great, case closed.

So is USPS now hiring blind people as part of their DEI initiative? Or just the usual lot of idiots, imbeciles and morons?

But hey, it could be worse. Here's a post from a Canadian in southern British Columbia near the U.S. border:

I can see the post office from my house.

I had a huge delivery of over 3000 cards.

The post mistress put it in another box addressed it to me (about 400 yards away) and mailed it to me.

I paid the postage by cc, The package went to Spokane WA then to LA then to Dusseldorf Germany then to Nairobi Kenya then disappeared. A sad day in the ... household as I paid around $1100 US for that lot
The Scooper posted his complaint on March 19th. The package did finally arrive on April 23rd.

When I see tracking issues like this, I've had a few myself, the two things I think of are 1 is it any wonder the USPS is losing money? and 2 why can't I put a stamp on myself and try for one of these fantastic trips around the country?

I think the bar code must have originally matched the address because it went first to Florida as it was supposed to and bounced around there for a while. Maybe it got damaged and now reads as Petaluma. In any case, it seems clearly on its way back to Octavio.

That's no excuse. If the bar code doesn't match the address, an intelligent being would choose to go with the address.
