We have had breakins in the neighborhood mailboxes so I went door to door to collect money for a night vision camera to monitor who is breaking into the mailboxes. Anyway it must have gotten out that there was a hidden camera because they stopped breaking in the mailboxes and they even stopped tagging it. So even though we never found out who did it we stopped them from stealing our mail.

You probably wound up knocking on the door of the thief.

Very likely.

I know. That's why I never divulged WHICH set of mailboxes was to have the actual camera. I told the donors not to tell anyone where the camera was going to be set up because I knew if people knew which mailboxes were monitored and which ones weren't they'd only go after the unmonitored mailboxes. When I was asked by a non donor I lied and said " I haven't decided yet".because I knew it would get out. People have big mouths. Anyway, it worked. :mischief:

We don't have mailboxes as a rule.  We have front doors with a letterbox.  Postman shoves mail through hole,  and bingo it is safely in your property and the family mutt is free to rip it to shreds :zoinks:

^we should have that but the postal workers are too lazy to do their jobs. They shove everything they can into the mailbox instead of leaving packages infront of the door. Also their union makes sure they get paid a lot. My mother has complained about how they shove everything into the mailboxes so it is almost impossible to get them out from the other side. She has arthritis and you'd think they'd build mailboxes that aren't so easy to break into.

And if the packages are too big to fit in the mailbox, they'll just leave a pink slip without even bothering to knock on the door. I've had this happen to me multiple times. I'd say pay the extra few bucks to have it shipped via UPS or FedEx, fuck the USPoS.

Wrote a nice email to someone I thought I could have inadvertantly offended.
Set up a surprise for someone I care about
Effectively doubled the sales of the second placed person in the sales comp at work. I want that prize (Have to hold them off for another 6 weeks)
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.

 Yesterday I did my laundry AND installed my air conditioners, that's two annoying jobs
 I don't have to do (or put off doing and feel guilty about not doing) today!  :roses:

 If your house were carpeted with bubble wrap, gravity would not hurt at all!  :laugh:
