    The Boys and I just planned and executed the most epic of epic rhinoceros visitations — so, Monday I ordered a pair of safety glasses that get light and dark and they shipped via USPS from Gilroy Ca (850 miles) on Tuesday and won’t arrive until 12/29 —- the Pony F’n Express only took 4 days to get from St Louis to California— Western F’n Express can do it in less than two days if they don’t crash or get stuck—- they tracked a F’n Mountain Lion that didn’t take that long

    Fairly simple engineering formula they all have over looked.
    Water hose or electric wire.. Ya got to put in what you need to take out the other end. Maybe faster or slower; or by different methods,
    but you got to have enough. So the rivers have to flow faster (Hydro) and the sun must shine brighter (solar) to accommodate this.
    I prolly could have worked for Ford at this level of ability to understand.

    I got one better......
    Sent a check to my insurance people in a pre-adressed envelope.
    It comes back saying "customer can't be found" or some such. Keep in mind, this was State Farmer in a pre-adressed envelope.
    Then, they deliver the returned mail to my next door neighbor.
    USPS is so totally F'd up......there is no hope.

    So— I’m out here in the shop cook’n and have time to think and start to ponder on the Christmas and Santa thing and then I got to thinking about the logistics and then I drilled down to a question— Do you think the elf that has been assigned to clean out the reindeer stalls F’d up and is being punished or do you think he is a trusted member of the team and only trusted members are allowed to do that job?????
