I've recently ordered some camera equipment from Israel - of all places - and I've been eagerly following the UPS tracking data online. The frickin' package is going in completely the opposite direction around the world!

Surely a quick trip to Singapore and then Melbourne would have done the job. Bah!

Yeah, I've had stuff shipped from North America to Melbourne come via Paris. It just depends on where the shipping company has their hubs.

I figgered as much, but my impotent rage is a far more interesting story.

I am a little envious of my stuff, it's true.

[wordynerd]

it's an adventurous package?

uumm... random question. have you taken up cycling? i saw a guy today on yarra boulevard who looked a lot like you. and i mean a lot.

[mrben]

No, not me. My uncle rides and I'm told has many of the same mannerisms as I do, but he has a bit more weight on him. Otherwise, you've discovered my long, lost twin!

[wordynerd]

hhmm... well, when you see him next ask if he rides yarra boulevard. i was so sure it was you.
