    The anticipation is TOURTURE!! Aaaahhhhh!!!! I would rather be dipped in hot oil than endure a slowly updated package tracking site. My sympathy and commiseration go out to you.

    JaxHiker, look on the bright side. When my destination scan shows "Jacksonville" I know I still have to wait until the next day before I will receive my items!

    Good luck surviving it.

    After years of waiting for gear I have learned patience. I see some people in the States get a package in a couple of days and for the same package shipped at the same time I have to wait a week of two. Since I am Canada I have to wait much longer than you fine folks south of me. Those abroad usually have to wait even longer. Take some comfort in that. The waiting still sucks though.

    Amen easy!

    Well, Bubba, I guess you put it into perspective. It's all relative.

    At least I have some Android programming to keep my mind occupied tonight.

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh! Why couldn't it have been delivered late afternoon? I KNEW I should've been "sick" this morning! Woe is me. I think I feel a cough coming on, boss. I'd better work at home the rest of the day.

    Write some Android Code to get your deliveries to your locale sooner. One that takes over the Delivery Truck driving controls.
    When the driver receives a package with your address, turns his truck into a Straight for JaxHiker's address, no stopping.

    Now that Android App would Rock! Then customize it for each user [Islander's Cyanogen Android...]
