when i opened the door and saw the postman standing there with that bent over box and a look of shame covering his face i was instantly in panic mode.i layed it down on my stairs,held out my hand and said 'knife' like a doctor doing surgery..lol...we almost did a man hug when we saw it was ok but we stopped ourselves in the nick of time and settled on knuckles..'whew'

After what I have seen where I worked I will never use something other than USPS for bows.  Well now I kind of use the US Air Force, but that is because they bring all our mail to Europe from New York.

We had a name for UPS where I used to work Ultimate Package Smashers.  Didn't use DHL too much and can't remember their nickname, it has been about five years.

I am close to reporting you for 'trolling' here!
I got a Centaur coming in a month and a bit, and this will give me many a nightmare^^

Very glad it's ok though! How does she shoot?
