Is My Package Coming or Going?

Man, UPS’s online tracking system leaves a bit to be desired.

I bought some stuff that was shipped via UPS Ground. It was sent from the warehouse on Tuesday the 8th, and although I was first able to check its status yesterday it still listed its delivery date as yesterday… even though it was in Kentucky that afternoon.

The good news is that the little package had a good time in ol’ Kentucky. Check it out:

Whee!

Now that it’s settling down here in town (it arrived this morning), I hope it got that out of its system. Seriously though, why did my package come and go so much yesterday? Was UPS that confounded by this wee box?

Now I hope they do the delivery right.

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
