I have received some orders yesterday that weren't able to get shipped out. UPS and the postal service suspended their pickup yesterday and today. The reasoning was that they didn't want any packages sitting at a terminal with the chance of getting damaged or loss. Hopefully I'll be able to ship the packages out by the middle of next week.

I want to apologize for the inconvenience this may cause anyone.

I agree with everyone else Lance and Bil ya guys need to get out of there in the VERY near future.

I went through Andrew down south in 1992 and wont ever ride something like that out again. I was safe and fine but only one of 2 houses on my block that still looked like a house. We became the neighbors shelters.

Lance ; Get your family and Bill's family out of there ! Right now there is an 80% probability of you getting hit head on and hard.
Don't put your families in harm's way ! You can handle material losses but you can't handle the loss of family members when you know you could have prevented it.

I believe every one of us assume that he knows. IMO We are just reassuring that we have reason to care about his well being. :)
