I have to wonder what poor little deranged soul plans the routes.

Computer routed.
I would guess that the trailer had multiple destinations and they had to drop some off at another place. All the Amazon stuff I order goes to Swedesboro, NJ, before they hand it to USPS. I'm certain there are closer hubs, but everything I get comes from there.

I figured it had something to do with computer generated routes and loading the trucks, but I like to imagine some little fellow at his desk in a cubicle sending things the wrong direction out of incompetence or maybe even on purpose just for his own entertainment.

At least I'm not in any real hurry for the package. I wonder where it will be tomorrow.

Edit: It's "tomorrow". The tracking link has been disabled and there is no longer an estimated delivery date on the website. There's no telling where that box is now.

My tankless water heater is so tiny. It's the size of three loaves of bread.

When did you get it? How do you like it so far? Gas or electric?

I wanted one when we replaced our water heater, about 20 years ago I guess, but I was told it was recommended to have gas as the electric models were not very good then. I don't know if that has changed or not.

It hasn't been hooked up yet. I need a couple of adapters and may end up replumbing the laundry room, due to running new electrical conduit.

We’ve all seen big rock bands from the 80’s onward have massive walls of double stacked amps (2 working, the rest dummies) to portray sheer power….

Well now it seems the tables have turned to portraying vintage gear geekdom!! 😂

This was taken last thur night at the Greek Theater. The Black Crowes having a combo and head/cab yard sale show where only 6 heads were lit up, the rest for show! 🤪 (It really makes me appreciate Rush putting washing machines
/ chicken on a rotisserie /vending machines on stage that much more!🤣 )

It's either mad prepping or hording gone wild.

I remember when I could lay in one position for hours. Now I have to keep turning like a rotisserie chicken to keep my shoulders or back from hurting.
I have the hip on one side, shoulder on the other. Somewhere between three and four in the morning I wind up tossing and turning until the dog decides it’s time to go out.

Rotisserie chicken? Did they share?

Could be. They did have a "Chef" come out during a song and change chickens!

@Opsimath Found the video!



After the show the chickens went to Homeless shelters! (Well he chickens weren't homeless, the homeless people ate the chickens!)

The word has been used quite a bit in our house just lately, so I had sweetie (wife) come over and look at your post for a really good example of the word.

We have close neighbors with a Great Dane straight out the the horrific Animal Farm cartoon... he did a neighbor's goat and also had another neighbor's "rooster in his mouth" when he was a little younger, as well as some attempted dogsnuffing, apparently does not like unfixed Beagles... but they have a GIANT Orange cat "Cinammon" or "Mr. Fluff" and the Great Dane and the cat coexist just fine.

The neighbor with the Great Dane is no longer with us. Sometime yesterday he found a permanent solution to all his problems, leaving a partner of 29 years behind.

He and my wife were sweeties at one time. She's intensely distraught, also she found him this morning on a welfare check.

Last I saw him was Tuesday, he was at a cleanup at the neighbor's house who did the same last June.
