Duster De-ruster
Happy Saturday. Weather lady said Sunday this morning, so I had to double check. A few days off and I can lose track. (I know, they are all saturdays to a bunch of yuins) I was supposed to be at my daughters place last night. She is in Northern New Jersey. Haven't heard from her yet today, but was forcast for 5-8 in of snow. Between that, a head cold and leg cramp the night before - I took a raincheck. Will try again for next Fri-Sat.

Same. We had sleet and freezing rain for several hours last night. Right at freezing now. Might get to 33 then drop again. Roads are moving good after lots of scraping and salting. I'll check the driveway soon to see if anything scrapes off. Hopefully it just melts and runs away so not much to re-freeze. Either way, I don't have plan to go anywhere till work Monday afternoon..
Was that the Pigeon drop?
Got all cocky when I got the new pins soldered-in:
But now I have to tear apart, clean, and re-lube the trunion assembly as it’s not grabbing records at the end of their play (operating too slowly).
Good thing I don’t have any plans for today!

I wouldn’t wish our local Post Office branch on my worst enemy! Between mail that gets lost, the mail that gets mis-delivered, and the little “postage due” games that they play like the one below (not our first rodeo with them), I’m actually looking forward to the day that our local branch closes-up.
I’ll get over there….sometime soon….to pick-up my calendar.

Found this.
Qualifying for Special Rates
- Bound Printed Matter (BPM): Calendars can be mailed at BPM rates if at least 50% or more of the pages contain substantial text, pictures, or other editorial matter. Calendars that are mostly blank space for notes are generally not eligible for this rate.
- Media Mail: Calendars typically do not qualify for Media Mail unless they are part of a book or educational reference material that meets specific criteria. Media Mail is primarily for items like books (at least 8 pages), manuscripts, sound recordings, and educational charts.
Standard Mailing Options
If a calendar does not meet the requirements for BPM or Media Mail, you will use standard shipping methods:
- First-Class Mail: A good option for individual, lightweight calendars (under 13 oz) that can be mailed in a standard envelope or flat mailer.
- USPS Ground Advantage: This is often the most cost-effective option for packages or heavier calendars that do not qualify for special rates.
- Priority Mail: Used when faster delivery (1-3 business days) is needed, and you may use the various flat-rate packaging options available.
How to Determine Your Rate
- Evaluate Content: Determine if 50% or more of the calendar's pages are filled with printed material (pictures/text) rather than blank note space.
- Weigh the Item: Rates are heavily dependent on the weight and destination.
- Use the Official Calculator: For precise pricing based on your specific calendar's weight, size, and destination, use the USPS Retail Postage Price Calculator.
Logic? And facts? (LOL!)
Our local PO is run by a “Big Fish” in a VERY small pond, and believe me when I say: They do NOTHING wrong! Mail goes to our neighbors house (transposed numbers)? “Not our fault!” Mail gets lost/tracking number ends at their office? “We don’t have any information”.
And it’s not just us, as the neighbors have complained as well. I could rattle off a bunch of stories about them, but bottom line is: For whatever the reason, this office is frequently unable (or unwilling) to do their jobs, and we wouldn’t be all that sad to see them go away.
That's common here also.
Lucky me, my post office people are friends of mine and I get my mail.
We used to get some honest mistakes at our old place, and at least there the PO would TRY to work with you.
Out here? Nope!
We’ve tried, but we seem to get a new carrier about once a month, if not sooner.
Sadly I’m not exaggerating.
Glad I'm not sending your *** in the mail, they may lose it and you'd be assless.
They might not be able to find his *** with both hands..
Oh, they can find my *** alright, especially when they want money!
Based on the extra pounds I've put on in the past few years, I have *** to spare, Fred!
I lose weight not gain weight and I have no ***.Based on the extra pounds I've put on in the past few years, I have *** to spare, Fred!
Well, the “transmission” is out:
But there was a casualty….

"The Lord's Prayer":
Since it's a cappella, it sounds like crap if the TT isn't spinning at exactly the right speed.
Once I get everything up and running again I'll start looking for a good replacement for "Little Saint Nick". (Thankfully I have...what...360+ days?)
