Delivered

The postal service website says:


Delivered, May 04, 2006, 10:42 am, NEVADA CITY, CA 95959


So they didn't get lost in the mail, which I found myself half hoping today. 

Well, not bad delivery time for priority mail, I guess. I posted the envelope on May 2 about 2 PM, so really not bad. 

At my job today, I came back from my lunch to find a bunch of co-workers using a piece of pipe to destroy the effigy of a white man, with fake money taped to his hands. Normally, I'd say this was an odd development, but I presume it was meant to be a pinata. 

In Orange County, one never knows. 

Happy Cinco de Mayo.

(As a little side note, I love that Mexico declared their independence on September 15 and this website states that May 5 should be their independence day. That seems like such a very GB thing to say.... Please also savor the line "Americans never forget who their friends are..." towards the bottom of the page. Forgetting, of course, the current situation with our Mexican "friends". -{Do Republicans have friends?}- Obviously written by an astute student of American foreign policy and immigration issues).
