    I believe he's more important than you think. Worth exploring.
  2. Good news - our local post office fixed the problem (at least for now) & everything has arrived.
  3. I agree. As you describe it, it's a Rural Route with a bank of smaller mailboxes & larger parcel lockers. I tried to notify the local post office, but no one answers the phone (I let it ring for 5 minutes). I hope if someone has my stuff that they will let me know. OTOH maybe the post office will get it fixed today. Will check my mail box late this afternoon to see if the issue is resolved. I called the USPS 800 number & they tried to reassure me that they have notified the local post office & hopefully it'll get resolved. I'm not confident.
  4. People are apparently unlocking parcel boxes with keys they find in their mailboxes. Then when they realize the package isn't for them, they just leave it in the unlocked box. Hopefully no one is stealing stuff that doesn't belong to them. This is bizarre. I've tried to contact the local post office to deal with this, but no one picks up the phone & there is no voice mail. I have a call in to an 800 number at USPS & am supposed to get a call back in"more than an hour". Meanwhile my "case numbers" are being investigated to try to find my packages. If the USPS eventually declares my packages as "lost", I presume the 2 vendors will reship. Needless to say, I'm pissed.
  5. I get it. One problem is our local post office is so bad that when you dial the so-called local hot line number the phone rings forever & no one picks up. Thanks for letting me vent. At least I have case numbers from USPS. If they never find my stuff, hopefully the vendors will reship.
  6. We went up & checked this a.m. Several of the parcel boxes are open & have packages left behind in them. I guess people had keys that weren't for them & just left the packages behind. None were ours. Several of the parcel boxes are closed without keys sticking out of them. We left messages inside & outside of our mailbox. The USPS has not responded other than to indicate they have the case numbers. I may try to get the vendors to reship. BTW, FedEx sure post has been the most problematic.
  7. All of those are possible. I've reported this to the USPS & case numbers have been assigned. We placed a note inside our mailbox but apparently it wasn't looked at. Today we added a note taped to the outside of our mailbox. This is all ridiculous whatever the reason is.
  8. Thanks Chuck. Then find my 2 boxes the USPS "delivered" 2 days ago & are nowhere to be found. I guess you're a lucky guy. USPS is "investigating", whatever that means. I'll report back!!
  9. In our area we each have a small individual mailbox. If something doesn't fit, there are larger parcel boxes. They're supposed to leave a key in your small mailbox for the large parcel box.
  10. 2 packages, 2 vendors, allegedly delivered yesterday at 8 p.m., key left in parcel box for pickup. The problem is there is no key for the parcel box. USPS is "investigating". Been down this road before.
  11. I remember the urinals at the Jazz Showcase in Chicago in the 60's having ice in them to pee on.
  12. Last 2 episodes of Bark Skins tonight. Will there be a season 2?
  13. The Wolf Of Wall Street on IFC tonight.
  14. I thought about watching the Gene Krupa one tonight, but then decided not to.
