Wait a minute - Don't tell me 25 women in Ireland .... ah nevermind, my body is telling my brain it's not worth the effort.

Ha, I have both. What do I win?


Moles, I think. The crickets destroyed a large section of grass 2 years ago before I noticed.

My theory was that the moles would eat all the mole crickets and leave you with only one kind of pest. Guess they'd rather go Voltron and team up against their common enemy (you). D:
 
I ordered Trolli Octopus (8 bags @ 6.3 ounces each). 50.4 ounces total.

I received Trolli All Star Mix (12 bags @ 3.8 ounces each). 45.6 ounces total.

I'm going to spend the rest of the day contacting various Amazon customer service employees, and talking rudely to each and everyone one of them. And if they dare put me on hold or transfer me to someone else, I will really lay into them and then post the chat log on the forums because I'm sure everyone will agree with me about the issue. 😉 😛

OK Craig.
 
actually got through to FedEx... they say there is a capacity issue between those two locations. I think it's the grinder chewing up the capacity.

Package was from Monroe Township NJ and is supposed to go to NYC. I don't get why PA is involved at all, especially when they have a capacity issue in those locations lol.

All they had to do is to get on the NJ Turnpike and drive to NYC...

lol no. the agent claims it will be delivered for sure on Thursday. I remain skeptical.


Manager at FedEx: we have capacity problem in these 2 PA locations. What can we do to solve this?
peon: Let's route more packages there and then have one of them just go back and forth between the locations.
Manager: Brilliant. Let's do that.

That's what you get for ordering from the states lol. But I did the same mistake, some shop on Amazon decided to call themselves "Ottawa Canada" and I badly assumed they were well, in Ottawa. But no it's like somewhere in the states. Package won't be here until some times next month. So much for prime lol. That was a waste. It's a Killowatt, figured I'd start testing power consumption of stuff properly. Clamp on meter is kinda sketch and I don't even know if I'm getting true watts that way or just VA.

I never had this issue shopping in the states. And it's not like I am shipping it here either.

<--- Spent well over 100K cross border shopping.
 
Dealing with a failing hard drive.(it's a internal 3 TB Western Digital Green SATA).

So nervous right now. Every time I try to hook it up, my PC blue screens with a error related to the chipset SATA controller.

(None of my other drives connected to that controller are having problems right now,knock on wood.)

In hindsight... I should've copied all the data off of it(and on to the 12 TB drive) when I had received my new external 12 TB Western Digital Elements USB 3 drive.

Don't really care about the drive, just my data.

Planning on taking the 3 TB drive to a professional data recovery company, if my friend who's a computer tech can't recover the data himself.

Barely slept at all last night,since I'm worried about my data on that 3 TB WD Green.

I'd be worried too if my midget porn collection was at risk! 😛
