    Did you go private company, or government company? There is a large difference in the two and how they operate.

    I went with the one that requested the least amount of capital in order to conduct the requested points A --> B operation.

    They be gub'mint.

    The private companies wanted a small fortune because I'm not on contract with them, which is where they screw you.

    As is the group I will have to go with as well, as I will be putting beer into the package to be sent out. So whoever is getting a package from me, beer is involved.

    But as you know, nothing we do in the gov is the proper speed. You should see my test program I am on. Or the fact my gov laptop is pushing 7 years old and still running 32 bit...

    Where the hell do you even find ink for dot matrix printers?

    Side note. I got a daily wheel printer that works. Just missing the letter R.

    Ok so I got home to a couple packages on my step. Who ever it was that had me blew it out of the water. I was super excited when I found the home town goodies. That was exactly what I was hoping for. Can't wait to try them. On top of that they even threw in a garbage bag to help with the clean up. Thank you so much! You made my day. Now I just need to find out who is from Maine so I can thank them.

    Ps. My wife didn't understand how I could be so excited for a garbage bag. Love the trasharoo.
