rspaceman1 on tapeop (from a long time ago-- remember him?) and i had developed a friendship, and he sent me the vinyl record his band just pressed at the time. he doublechecked with me my address before sending, and made sure it was packaged well and everything.

thanks to good ol trusty USPS, it's been almost 2 years and i still haven't seen it show up. :twisted:

do you mean the band or the actual postal service. The band is so so. The first two songs are cool but everything on that album is boring. The actual United States Postal Service sucks alot more.

Esoteric choices to hard to understand. But I'm half awake as it is. More coffee, please.

Ok, so I was talking about the "band" that everyone seems to love, but the real one is pretty sketchy here.

Whoever delivers the mail in my building apparently can't read. I constantly open my box to find my neighbor's stupid techie business magazines. Although one time I got his issue of Playboy.

Having lived in the great city of Chicago, I have mail delivery nightmare stories that would curl your stamps.

The band is ok, although the vocals get annoying after a while. But they never burnt stacks of mail under a viaduct, so they are better than the USPS.

Heynow, heynow.

Never heard the band.

Regarding the US Postal Service I will say this: Their Priority Mail option is killer. I trust it a great deal more than I trust UPS (pronounced: "oops"). USPS first class isn't the greatest, but how cheap is it?
