If someone had five-fingered it, I would have probably went to the penitentiary. As it was, I went to the local UPS place and made an appointment w/said UPS man. When I got through cussing, he was red as a beet, didn't like it at all, but he never said a word back. Guess he was imagining how he would have felt if it had been his $1500 parcel with brand names and pictures of the receiver on it left pretty much on the side of the road...what a jerk.
I told you I was sorry...gesh! Some people never let go of a grudge...

signed,

the jerk
