Not Again *&()*&%$

Well they have done it again. Yes the USPS wonders why they are always going broke. I ordered some items early in december with an arrival date of Dec,19th. No they are not here so I decided to check the tracking. They went from Royston, PA to Philadelphia, ok that makes sense. Next stop was West Palm Beach, Fl. Yup all the way to Florida. Next on to Kearny, NJ. We'll see if they get to my address next or on tosome other exotic location.  Thank God it is not a rare fighting knife. I have some thumb daggers coming from California and I was half afraid to check the tracking. It says they are in town to be delivered today. So I sit here with fingers crossed.

    You can find out more about me on the "Stories" pages. My hobbies have included training in Japanese martial arts, including Kenjutsu, many forms of knife fighting, long range rifles and tactical firearms. I have written several self published books on muzzle-loading firearms, knife-fighting and textbooks on gas engines and compressors. I am working diligently on my 400+ page F-S book.
