I would like to register my displeasure with the United States Postal Service. I’m still debating on if I should sue them over false advertisement, but I’ll get to that later. Recently, I ordered a book off Amazon and it was sent out the next day. I had a tracking number to follow it and for 8 days, it sat in Richmond, VA. Now, I’m sure Richmond is a great place and all. Nobody’s faulting the city. But I would like to be the first to ask what the hell they do up there during the workday. Why must my book sit there for 8 days? Finally they realized that it was supposed to be sent down here to Columbia, so they shipped it down here and what happens? The postman doesn’t come to our apartments because it is raining pretty hard one day. So I am, sitting in my class trying to bullshit who exactly would have killed the princes in the tower if it wasn’t King Richard III all because my postman didn’t feel like getting wet.

To add insult to injury, a recent USPS ad on TV pissed me off. They made numberous false claims about the service they provide. They claimed to be able to deliever the mail in not only good weather, but also snow and rain. I was willing to let that slide and just say they screwed the commercial up, but they felt like testing their luck. They continued such false claims as:

Even the temporary loss of gravity can’t stop us.

Now call me crazy, but if they couldn’t make it here when it was raining, I doubt they’ll be able to give me my mail when I’m floating 20 feet off the ground. And how long is this temporar loss of gravity? I mean, I think they could hold out on like a 30 second loss. But if we’re pushing the 10+ hour boundary, I don’t see how they could even make it to my apartment to deliever the mail. This is something I would like to see.

An angry mob of robots made out of old washing machines couldn’t stop us.

Ok, scratch what I said previously…this is something I would like to see. Am I the only person whose first thought upon hearing this was “I wonder what made them angry?” Now aside from that, I too think this would somehow stop the postal service. Just think of all the destructive power this mob could pack. I’m sure they could somehow put to use all the old socks they’ve collected over the years; you know, like make a sock missle or something. Heck, they could just grab the mail and throw in inside themselves and turn on the washing machines, which would destroy all the mail. I’d put my money on the robots.

Not even a black hole that swallows the entire known universe can stop us.

Ok, now y’all are just being dicks.

I’m making a few changes on the site. I put a new song up over on the right, and I’m going to do away with my links page and just put all the links up here on the main page. Nothing really exciting, but I get bored if I leave things alone for too long. The Mariners were technically knocked out of the playoffs again for the second year in a row, this year by Boston. Those bastards! I’m over it though. It helped accepting it earlier then holding out hope only to have it be crushed like I did last year. I still say nobody will be able to beat the Florida Marlins. Watch them play one game and tell me they won’t win the World Series. The Shyzers have their first game this Sunday. I’m still waiting to hear when our first match of Softling will take place. Personally, I think the “Untouchabowls” won’t know what hit em, but that’s just me.

Ok, I am off to play some video games and eat a hot pocket. But I’ve got one question for everybody. Is anybody else getting pop-ups when they come to my site? Whenever I load my site, I get a pop-up or two and it’s starting to piss me off. I didn’t know if it’s my computer or my site, so any feedback would be appreciated.
