Apparently it is being sent through FedEx by a camel.

Ship date

Jul 25, 2011

Estimated delivery

Aug 2, 2011


It was in Wisconsin yesterday, it is in Brooklyn Park today -- still NOT delivered.

Borders also canceled two of my other orders, so, mucho thanks fellas. Plus membership my eye.

Seriously, it's going to take three days (Saturday, Monday, and finally Tuesday) to get here from Brooklyn Park? It's maybe twenty miles from here. Maybe I should just go up there and try to intercept it.

This free shipping is not worth the money I spent on it.

    Barnes and Noble did that to me with ADWD. It shipped from somewhere in the southwest by UPS Mail Innovations. It was within 20 miles of my house by 1.5 days later. It took another 4 or so days to arrive. Apparently they have to check it in one day, hand it to USPS on the next, they have to move it to the satellite station the next day, then on the next day it gets delivered. So 1 day, 3500 miles; the next 4 days 20 miles....but it's free.

    It arrived a day ahead of "camel" time. Of course on Sunday I spilled coffee on it. #$O(#*$(*!

    This book is cursed, I tell you, cursed!
