Dont really know where to ask this:

Should I inspect new wheels upon delivery before the ups guy leaves so I can refuse a shipping damaged product?

New set coming in and I'm getting excited, they cost a bit more than my last set, but nothing crazy, 1600 for the four. They're rotary forged, so it's better than cast, but um still nervous about shipping damage.

It was a super helicopter thing; I used to enjoy it a lot. There was a motor bike version as well..

But the Knightrider was the best! Knightrider was translated to Turkish as "Black Thunder" :o) And it was the greatest thing to be watched when I was a child. I don't know if this is exactly correct but, I've heard the population on the streets were considerably diminishing during Knightrider was being shown. I'd never know, because no force could get me off from the screen

I wouldn't bother. Even if they are damaged simply refusing shipment will not resolve the issue nor necessarily get them sent back depending on the shipping company. They could just end up in a warehouse someplace while you fight it out with the vendor. Take delivery so at least you have the product in hand for any disputes.

It included tickets for a family of 5.

I entered my son each week in all the Racetrac stations I drove by on my commute. We ended up going to 5 games, and the players started recognizing him.

Great, my boss just walked by my door and said "What the hell are you humming?". i didn't even realize I was humming the Banana Splits theme song.


True story, back in my amusement park cosplay days at what was then a Hanna-Barbara park, 3 of my co-workers and I "broke" into the costume graveyard, dug out the Banana Splits costumes, made some repairs to them and took them out into the park. I was Snorky.

We were absolutely mobbed. It was a glorious rock-star 45 minutes.

Not sure what goes on in my head and I say it right but 9 times out of 10 I seem to write it as "contra" virus and have to go back and fix it.


Contra virus would be much scarier.
