[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2991392, member: 10461"]Been waiting on several coins to come in the mail. A few days ago the mailbox was full of packages, and I got all excited. But the packages were all for my daughter, who's gotten into thrift store shopping and is buying and selling vintage clothing and stuff online now. Then the next day the mail was all for me, but all [I]junk[/I] mail. :yack: Dear ASPCA, World Wildlife Fund, Humane Society, etc., etc., etc... you know I love critters, and I support your efforts, but if I had known that a single $50 donation to the ASPCA five or six years ago was going to open the floodgates for y'all to [I]drown[/I] me in junk mail solicitations, I might have rethought that. Thanks for the calendars and address labels and such, but I'd rather you used that contribution I made to [I]help the critters[/I] instead of barraging me with mail asking for MORE donations, and sharing my address with every other like-minded organization. Sheesh! [SIZE=3](I swear I get a come-on from one of these animal welfare organizations every two to three days.)[/SIZE] Oh. Where was I? Sorry for the tangent. Ah, yes. My mail. Let's open some packages. Gonna have to wait until I get home, though, since I'm finishing up a shift here at work. I'm as eager as you [SIZE=3](well, OK, probably [I]more[/I] eager)[/SIZE] to see what's in here! [USER=76086]@Ken Dorney[/USER]- I see your address on one of these, so that one finally made it! Stay tuned... :) [COLOR=#ff4d4d][B]Edited by moderator[/B] - removed your pic for your own protection, it was showing personal info [/COLOR] [COLOR=#ff0000][B]Edit 2 by lordmarcovan: [/B][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000]Thank you, moderator.
