Hey Derek,

Since you moved to Texas, you'll be the only Canadian with a copy of the weapons book. At least until they break the postal strike up there. We've built up a lot of Canuck book orders but still can't ship them. Supposedly they will open the doors up there again on Tuesday the 28th and if so, I値l have a pile of boxes to ship before they change their minds. I値l bet the mail will be really slow to move in Canada when they do open since they値l have such a backlog to deal with.

I've had trouble at the best of times shipping stuff both out of and in the last decade, back to Canada, especially since Canada Post started heavily using contractors to handle the mail in rural areas. It's gotten so bad that I use Registered Mail to simply send a greeting card to family members back in B.C. and even that didn't work last time. The birthday card I sent one of my daughters was returned after three months as "Undeliverable" I hope you're insuring your shipments of books.

CHEEMO!

Derek.
