It's another beautiful day in the neighborhood. I will go for a walk, go food shopping and then who knows.
Today is Mickey Mouse's Birthday.......Everybody sing .
On November 18th, Mickey Mouse Birthday commemorates the debut of a lovable mouse that was once a rabbit called Oswald. His character got his start on film on November 18, 1928, but before that, the story begins in 1927, when Walt Disney first sketched a floppy-eared bunny while under contract to Universal Studios. The events that unraveled brought us Mickey Mouse.
I was waiting for a delivery from FedEx, not the Beer Of The Month Club so I didn't have to sign for it, but I like to be here when they make the delivery. I live on the 4th floor and I've never had a problem with porch pirates but I don't want a box sitting at my front door for a couple of hours if I'm not home. The package was delivered a little after 1:30 so I was able to get out and enjoy the beautiful weather, took a nice stroll in the park.
On the way home I saw a car whose owner must be a Magnum P.I. fan. The license plate on the red Ferrari on the TV show was ROBIN 1. I saw a red Ferrari with the license plate ROBIN 2. Unless it was really Robin Masters.

Maybe Robin 2 refers to the fairly recent remake of Magnum PI?
Mrs Rabz was watching it and it is abysmal. Why do they think they can improve a classic by taking out all the good bits and stuffing it full of woke goodness?

Hi there! I've watched a lot of videos about porch pirates getting their comeuppance with exploding boxes splattering paint. It amazes me how many yell at the security that they are going to sue! One old thief fell over with the explosion, crying he broke his hip.
If I wasn't fishing in this all day rain,I'd be home doing something stupid.

I love those videos!! Perfect retribution.
But I must say that we are fortunate, as I have not heard of any porch-pirating in our neighborhood. Hope that remains the case.

It’s amazing that we don’t have porch pirates with 375 homes but we have duplicate house numbers which totally confusions the package delivery folks.

Try living in this God-forsaken state.
Some lazy moron decided that almost every regional town, village or suburb has Murray St as the main street. Even in adjoining suburbs or towns where it is not the same street...
They all have other common road names too - Research, Diagonal, Saleyards, First, Second, Third etc.
Makes getting deliveries difficult most times (quite apart from not having letterbox deliveries).
