So UPS looked up the name, got me and delivered it to my office. As far as they’re concerned, their job is done. They got a package for My IRL Name, delivered it to My IRL Name, end of story. What do they do when they get a package for John Smith and the address is invalid? Deliver it to the first John Smith they find? ---

Frankly, I’m quite amazed that there’s another one. **Featherlou** - It has elastic in sort of key places, so I imagine you could haul it of in a hurry. ---

I think we all should send random bits of fetish to total strangers a couple of times a year. Just look at how much joy this one has brought to so many people already, and unless Alice has had a Really Good Weekend, it hasn’t even fulfilled its purpose yet! I’m gonna send c\*\*k rings to Dick Cheney. Then he won’t be dropping off to sleep so easy. ---

What really baffles me is that in any universe that little number would be one size fits all. I can see one size fits all for a bathrobe, but bras are notoriously hard to find the right size. I mean, even discounting cup size, which doesn’t seem applicable in this case anyway, could both a 32 and 38 wear this? Aaaaaaagh!! For some reason one size fits all bras completely oveload my circuits, and not in a good way. Its like comprehending infinity. I have to go lie down. ZJ ---

There are worse things to get in the mail. I just got $9,000 worth of some strangers hospital bills. I don’t think I’m going to pay them, though. ---
