I ordered some H4 headlights for my 85 PU, and what do you know they were delivered this morning at 9:01 AM. Only problem I don't have them :thumbdown:. I have a sneaking suspicion one of two people, either jacked them, my neighbors had carpet cleaners over or the guy across the way who called a mobile mechanic to change his battery out.

People in this town  :shudder:

:dunno: why blame DHL.  If they delivered the package, they did their job.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "

X-2.   I like to have stuff signed for. The only problem is I'm never home to sign for it so I end up driving to UPS to pick it up at 7 o'clock at night.

That's the shits man :down:  You don't live in the hood do ya? 
RIP KYOTA

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!

No, I live over by clover creek preserve (the good side)

When I came home from school a neighbor found my package thrown in her bushes opened. On the plus side my lights were still in the box. I guess the person who stole it thought they were getting an Ipod or something.

Some people, I now suspect it was the carpet cleaning guy working at my neighbors house.

You got lucky this time. I belive you can request that they leave the package out of sight or at the back door or something like that. You could check into it, next time it might be an ipod that gets stolen.
Hug your kids, pray for a soldier, and don't sweat the small stuff.
