I got impatient with OSS today and called them. The chap I talked to told
me that they were packing orders as he talked to me and that if I told him who
I was and My zip (Read Postal In canada) code (What does zip stand for? )
they woud ship my order today. Maybe we should all phone them and then
they will ship faster, on the other hand they could be so busy talking
on the phone that they can't send the darned things. Oh what to do.
I made my decision without knowing the choices, you make your decision
knowing the choices. (I think that my decision was easier)
.....Canadians were gratefull when the temperature finally fell
below zero again. Many people were suffering from heat rash, you see
they are so used to wearing thermal underwear that the idea of going
without is unheard of. Large Numbers of Middle aged Canadians were
hospitalized for the summer and the elderly were shipped to the north
so that they could enjoy the cold. Only the brave and young were strong
enough to be functional during the summer......
This is an update from the great white north
