I'm 2 miles from Anaheim and it has been Sunny and hot all week. If there was a natural disaster here then I'm missing it. Fires are a bitch but that does even disrupt DHL and they are the worst.

Check the detailed tracking... I've had stuff go from LA to Memphis, then S.F., then here. And worse. Don't ask.

Maybe they were using your package to hold the throttle in place while they were resting their working foot and wrecked the delivery truck? Stranger disasters have happened.

I knew that it was a great idea to have my wheels sent out monday from 928Intl on FEDEX! I'm a long time FEDEX employee. Go FedEx! I'm in the Aircraft Maintenance/ Air Operations Division.

Good Luck

Hahaha .. you guys are hilarious ... I like the gas pedal theory. As I say .... "natural disaster" .... did the driver eat too many peanuts, was my package right by his seat, was there a terrible explosion, oh dear oh dear, all the possibilities .....

That must be it....Starbucks announced yesterday that they're jacking the price 17 cents a cup up here starting next week! Time to switch to Red Rose.
