I made Miss N a bracelet out of semiprecious stone beads and copper wire, wrote her a poem, and snailed both of them to her a week ago with a letter in which I told her I loved her at least three times. (This was to be the big, official first "I Love You" that the male must provide for the female at the proper moment in the courtship.)
The USPS delivered it (Priority Mail, Signature Confirmation) and their website was happy to tell me on Friday that my package was signed for by "S Hvllvway"... whom neither I nor Miss N have ever heard of. Could anyone tell me what the point of Signature Confirmation is, if anyone who happens to be standing around can sign for the package without saying what connection they have to the person the fershuginer package was addressed to???

While UPS is supposed to confirm delivery to the right person at the right address, we've had a number of packages go astray at out location - one of which showed up signed for, but was in fact left on our porch while I watched, and no one signed for it.

*shrugs*

Basic human nature, lazyness, and bad location finding has been my experience with UPS, USPS, and FedEx - the long and short of which is, "People suck, and you get to take package delivery potluck."

As such, I recommend insurance.
