I always update my CV every three months, just because. Plus the good thing about careers fair is that personality plays a bigger part than a CV. People buy people, as the old adage says.

I had a bad experience with cider when i was 16. Cannot touch the stuff now. Even the smell makes me gag. Everyone has that one drink they can't touch. Mine is definitely cider.

Jeez, did you get hold of the Johnny Jump-Up?

Well when i was 16, my friend Wayne's mum bought a pub. Needless to say our Friday evenings were spent "visitng" him to "play pool".

One evening i had the following all to myself:

6 bottles of Diamond White (7.5%)
4 bottles of K cider (6.9%)
4 pints of Strongbow
2 pints of Merrydown
1 two litre bottle of White Lightning

Don't think i've ever had a worse hangover in my life (probably because i didn't throw up). The rest is history

So now I have to go toe to toe with the USPS tomorrow to find out WTF happened to my package. I placed a small order 2 weeks ago, and it still hasn't arrived.

1 all-black vented coupler
1 circle plug
1 replacement screw for my CO

Didn't feel the need to drop $20 on FedEx, so I figured it would take about a week. FAIL

USPS "tracking" is pathetic.  I'm sorry you're having to go through that. Sad

Even if you do FedEx Ground, you at least get the peace of mind of decent tracking.

I find this strange. I ordered the mask in my avatar from a company in New Orleans last year. They used USPS to ship it to me in the UK. Tracking was awesome and including time to clear UK customs took 6 days from them to in my hands. Has USPS gotten that bad since Sept 2015?

Really couldn't justify adding 50% more to my cost. Now if I were getting a saber? Hell yeah, FedEx all the way.

I'm really peeved cuz I've had my Archon sitting on my desk for the last week and a half eagerly awaiting its new neck. (with windows Cool)
