How am I supposed to concentrate on writing three one page essays to pick up a little extra credit if I know that I have sabers being delivered tomorrow?

If the local time means Memphis time, that is not unreasonable for a flight to leave MEM at that time. I know there's a flight to CDG (France) around that time, if your saber is stopping there to be sorted before flying on to (going to guess) Rome. But I am having some trouble figuring out the exact route so I can't tell you for sure. |

Yes, Memphis time. The strange thing, Justicar, is that my husband's saber in March went from Memphis to New York, and from there overnight to Milan. It may well be that FedEx changed route but I'm a bit confused by the lack of updates. |

Hmmm...if you don't see it land in the morning, I suggest you call FedEx to double check and make sure there is not a customs preclearance delay. Please don't be upset with this but Italian customs was one that I learned in a prior job to pay particular mind to due to likelihood of administrative hangups. |

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll keep that in mind.  Not upset at all, that Italian customs may be a nightmare (if not a black hole) is well known over here (I hope I didn't just jinx myself  ). |

I didn't want to mention the black hole part, but I had a customer or two that had something go past the event horizon. But I have a feeling that if FedEx could do anything on their end to pre-clear your package while still in Memphis, they would do it because they're pretty clever. |

Yay, I got my raffle entry (Dark Menace which got stripped down and rebuilt as Project: Undercover, see the raffle prizes pic thread in the gallery for a full explanation of that one), my prize (a Crimson Scorpion in 4-channel, yes, 4 for a 1st prize saber), and my stunt "beater" Dark Apprentice V4 staff in Tri-AS, which I'll use with LEE filters to practice new spins and moves.
Now I'm waiting on the rest of the components for Projects: Havoc and Chimera, about half of which are held up, as so many orders are right now, by the backorder status of Consulars.
In the meantime, I need to hit up Radio Shack for a breadboard.

I feel your pain man, but at least they should be coming back in stock this month sometime, so the wait (should be) nearly over! |

Waiting for out of stock sabers is hard...which is why even though I'm still looking forward to my Bellicose, I decided to spring for a Guardian too. (R.I.P., wallet!)
...which is in my state now. Projected arrival is tomorrow and I am so ready. @@
