FedEx? Fie upon them. Never use them.
It was shipped on the 21st of September. Since then it has been
ping-ponging around. It arrived in Troutdale on the 23rd of September,
Portland on the 28th.
What is it? A bicycle. The guy who borrowed it could have ridden it back
faster than FedEx delivers. He rode the Oregon coast and on into
California. That only took six days.
Why did he borrow my bike? Because his shipment to my place did not
arrive in time. It eventually was sent back to arrive in Texas in
mid-September.
Consider the history:
