    I'm sorry, if it's not one kind of ash messing this up, it's another.

    You'll just have to skip me again if it doesn't look like it's gonna make it George.

    Brother,

    If it gets here before I leave on Sunday, I can send it your way and wait. NP. Also, there is a good chance that it will arrive after I have left for NY. My wife has instructions to send it if it arrives while I'm gone. GG, give me the word and I'll have Mamma send to Ashauler if it don't get here while I'm here. I don't want the "Potato" to sit in my house while I'm on the road. Darn last min missions...

    We can play it by ear if you like. I just want to it get to Germany at this point.

    I'll leave it up to Jamie - if he thinks he can get it in time and turned around without a whole lot of rushing around - I'm game. Otherwise - off to the next participant and I'll move you and Jamie down on the list...

    BTW, kiddies - I will be heading out of town Sunday for a week. WAY out of town... I don't know what the internet situation is going to be - or if/when I'll be checking in. So - if you don't hear from me I'll likely be under some swaying palms sucking on a Mai Tai. I wish it was pleasure, but I will make due with what I have (i.e. conducting interviews in the Cabana).

    I hope all of you behave yourselves while I'm gone.

    Okey dokey, let's see when it gets to Lopaka.....I can turn it around pretty quickly. If it gets to me anytime before July 2, I can handle it and move it on. I'd rather Lopaka get to make his trades since he's out of the country. Worse comes to worse, I'll leave instructions to forward it if I'm out when it arrives.

    GG, I maybe confused. I just logged on here to say that I haven’t received the box as of 30 June because PJ posted he had already sent the box.

    Is it not coming my way? If not, that is cool, I can stop going to my post office everyday hoping to get a box and walking away disappointed it's not here yet.

    I just don't want you guys thinking I'm keeping you out of the loop. Just figured a post everyday that it hasn't arrived wasn't a good thing either.

    Well guys I have no idea wtf is going on. DC# 0310 0480 0000 0620 2688

    Checking it out says: Your item was processed through and left our CHICAGO, IL 60688 facility on June 16, 2010. The item is currently in transit to the destination. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

    That's the last info on it.

    I can tell you with the utmost surety. There is neither rhyme nor reason for the European post.
    I have sent packages home to Ireland with some getting there in 3-4 days, others taking 3-4 weeks. Patience, although the potato may not be hot any more by the time it reaches Deutschland.

    Paddy is correct. I've had things get here in 3-4 days and I just got something today that I sent for 4 weeks ago. It's got to get through our Military PO system. I'm checking everyday...

    Today...nada.

    If we reach week 4 and nothing has arrived, I'll start the pass over from here. I was telling my wife that I'm waiting for this box and the only thing that she said would stop it from getting here is if there isn't a custom form on it. It should get here!

    Come on Mr. Postman!!
