    I did NOT practice nearly as much "dignity and grace" in my recent dealings (unhappily NOT resolved) between Amazon and me.

    There are some TE members here who are also on the Kindle Forum who can attest to that. My thread there was locked when I wrote that I couldn't get resolution of a broken Kindle since Amazon blamed me for the damage. I added that in frustration I threw the Kindle up against the wall and then could honestly say, "Yup, I damaged it."

    I'm boycotting Amazon for any future purchases of any product. That stings a bit since I was an Amazon addict.

    Any chance you get to see a copy of the memo the Ex Office will send down to the Security office about allowing bicycles on the hospital grounds?

    Somewhere the communication still has to happen that bicycles are NOT banned. Administration may be fine with it, but Security is out on the streets.


    Glad to hear that you can catch your bus and have something hot for dinnner other than eggs!

    Thanks! Somehow in the middle of all of this I have been lassoed into being a board member of Bike Delaware, the local bike advocate group. Well, they did say they needed an odd member added for voting purposes, and I guess I'm pretty odd.
