Default 928sRus Customers - Delivery Delays

Some of you may know that we had a record snowfall of 12.5" here in DFW.
The weather is playing havoc with our ability to ship parts.
We have not received any FedEx or UPS shipments since Wednesday afternoon.
No USPS mail pick up or delivery either.
I am shipping out all I can but with parts not coming in my usually speedy delivery is being cramped.
No problem getting to the Post Office.
Hopefully we will receive some deliveries this afternoon and service will return to normal.
Thanks for your patience.

I know for a lot of you 12.5" of snow is nothing but the whole of the MetroPlex has ground to a halt.

My last order delivered today. Looks like I got it in just in time. The mail lady has learned to take the boxes shipped from Roger straight to the garage. Now I'll get the new brakes installed just in time for the roads to be covered with snow.

Roger, we will let it slide this time because usually you deliver before you send the invoice. :-).

Jimminy! Would you like a little cheese with that whine.

I must be expecting something in the post from you as her car is not working. Given that, all I can say is: lousy bar steward!

Well I'm screwed, or not, as I'm waiting on some new seat screws.


And Chuck, I believe the proper punctuation is "You're", as in "You are".
