Steve, hope you guys are doing well in Canukistan. The "beer" virus as you call it has affected a lot but it looks like reality has set in and the communists and totalitarian types are using the unrest to cause more trouble. It is in the communist's take over handbook. Happened in South America recently. AS to shipping it is slow now. Ten years ago I happened to be awake at 0200. I decided to send an order to Midway USA to get it into the system. When I got home after a ten hour shift at the prison there was a carton at my front door? It was the Midway order! Didn't expect that. Recently I have had an order for 40 cal Hi-power magazines waiting since July. Don't know if I will get them before December or ever. Recently I got an antique bicycle from the east coast. It took two extra days past what was put in the tracking. When it left, the shipper packed it in a bicycle shipping box. When it got here it was sticking out of the box, wrapped in plastic wrap to keep all the parts in. The front fork was bent and sticking sticking out, the chain ring bent, and the front axle bent. You couldn't put the chain back on due to the severe bend in the large gear. Before shipping this was a fifties Schwinn Green Hornet girl's bike, NOT new old stock but not bent all to HeXX. Now it has been in a bike shop for a week and a half. They tore up a regulation shipping box made for bikes with a bike in it properly packed with all the foam and other gadgets to protect the bike inside. Say a prayer for the UPS company. Components and shipping are out of control. I hope the Commie running your country doesn't get a fatal dose of the 'rona virus. He is going to have lots to account for with the Big Guy with the golden G on his hoody. Maybe he will ask for forgiveness before he croaks. Be Well, RustyZipper.
