    Actually it was not me. Our hired man lives next door to us and his wife was out in the front yard when this brain trust showed up. She came over and told my wife because the jerk was going to just leave---except for one small problem---his van wasn't going to take him and the tow truck hadn't showed up yet!

    The van had Amazon markings but the registration was in the name of a third party contractor.

    I thought this was a roll call thread.

    Sorry about your lawn. Looks like a good place to start a water feature.

    Here in SA the local tv news shows a couple of weeks ago were showing video from some Amazon customer’s front door video camera vividly documenting the Amazon delivery driver get out of his van, walk to about 15 of the porch and sling the package onto it. Fortunately nothing in that package was breakable, but the delivery guy had no way to know that.

    I've had a lot of Amazon deliveries lately, most by USPS...I don't know what the arrangement is between Amazon and USPS, but I get some deliveries on Sunday also...Never had any damage either......Ben

    They come to the store so I guess they have to throw them before they get here.
