my dads favorite line was "whatever you do today you'll have sleep with tonight"
I use those same words on my boys now

Smokem if you Gotum, been awhile since I heard that one.
NOT LONG ENOUGH!
I don't miss the military at all.
"Smoke 'em if you got 'em. If you don't smoke, fall out and police the area."
....Wait a minute! WHAT? I bummed a cigarette and pretended to smoke it.
Lucky. Enjoy your free rod and reel with no guilt! We are Amazon sellers. It is not worth it for us to try and get back a $30 product (or two) that we shipped by mistake. Any seller who tries is silly. If you told me I would say thanks for letting us know and enjoy your free rod and reel. If Amazon sent it to you they are even less concerned about a $40 or so cost for the write-off. Cheers!

My Brother in Law is a huge man and a lot younger than me. He is mentally handicapped and the state recognizes this and would support him in a minor way, but he would rather work, so he works one job at 30 hours per week for a huge company stocking shelves in one department in one of their many stores as well as working as security for a weekend hours at a trucking depot. He got his handicap because about 64 years ago when he was born, he as a baby was over 13 pounds and the old DOC left him in the Birth canal too long and lack of blood to his brain caused the damaged. Sadly his parents did not know enough at that time to get compensation. They were real poor. the Dad was wounded at the Battle of the Bulge and was the first person I had ever met who couldn't read or write. I met him when I was dating my wife of 46 years on his death bed with terminal cancer. Anyway my BIL was invited to a Banquet by his company for his 25 year pin and could bring a guest, in this case he asked me. There basically wasn't seat assignments so i happened to be sitting next to an Executive who happen to be in charge of all the loss prevention in this big company. I asked him how much it cost the company because of loss goods, all the staff and etc. He said it costs close to a BILLION DOLLARS. I said, "what a shame, that could have gone towards price reduction on goods and all who shopped there would have benefited" and he agreed. When these stores/companies loose money because of loss, for whatever the reason, it is going to be the consumers who end up footing the bill. My .02 worth.

Proud of your brother-in-law for doing what he can , also thanks for the service of your father-in-law. And yes I agree nothing is free and it cost all of us in the end.

When was the last time any of you had a conversation with Amazon? Good luck getting them to understand. My experience was that the girl was very polite and patient TRYING to understand but never did and I got my next set of Christmas lights free also. Sent the extra set to my niece in Texas. Merry Christmas!
Ordered 3 pair of pants from Jeffazon 50 dollars apiece, when I received them I got one pair of what I ordered and two pair wrong size, wrong brand. Package slip said 3 pair of what I ordered. Jeff just said sorry order slip said 3 pair same pants, no refund.
Gave two pair to the Goodwill.
Tony, hoping that it's a disgruntled employee and they keep up the good work in your favor.
