First thing this morning I decided to try to track my latest amazon order to see when it was going to arrive. I got the following:

Date            Time            Location Service Area   Checkpoint Details
Nov 01, 2004    09:05:00 AM     ALLENTOWN PA            WITH DELIVERY COURIER.  
Nov 01, 2004    07:55:00 AM     OAKLAND CA              ARRIVED AT DHL FACILITY.  
Oct 29, 2004    05:06:30 PM     Lexington KY USA        SHIPPED  

I rather liked the idea that it was in Oakland, because that is fairly local. Allentown, PA, despite being lauded in song by Billy Joel, is nowhere near where I am at though. The distance between these two cities is 2483 miles, and apparently there was only one hour, ten minutes between their appearance. Hence, the most logical explanation is that my package was carried by SR-71.

We shall see if my package shows up sometime soon.
