...that items spend over two and a half days at the Customs before release, without any reason (I believe no reason as no contact made from the Customs to either party)?

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

That's not uncommon. There's a ton of factors, including which port the item(s) came into. The workload at the port can prevent things from being checked for days and you'll never get notified of anything.

I had to reread that twice, I thought YOU spent 2 1/2 days in customs before being released!

Anyone here from JSOP recently? Was wondering if the storms affected him?

No, I'm originally from California. Where is JSOP?

I do hope he is OK. Quite a bit of destruction happened.

Had me going there. I guess if the power is out in his area he could start his car then we would all hear from him.

Storms don't affect JSOP. JSOP affects storms.

He just posted [^] on the Insider News forum about 4 hours ago.

He and his wife are twirling pistols around on their index fingers while daring anyone in the neighborhood to try to touch their survival gear.
I'm kidding of course... they are actually sipping sweat tea on the front porch with assault rifles resting across their laps... while daring the neighbors to try to touch their survival gear.

No storms down there to speak of. But it got freaking cold and wet on the morning of the 27th.

@OriginalGriff, if you "pine fir [me]" then the subject should be "Thought of the Gay"!
Now, I kid you not, before I clicked into CP.com just a few minutes ago, I was thinking of a variation on "Thought of the Day", such as "Thought of the Gay" (of the 1940's definition...)
Then, I saw your post and belted out the hugest laugh I've done in a while; this, because it can be taken for the 2nd definition of "pining" for someone:
If you "pine" for someone, you desperately want to see them, be with them, or perhaps smother them with kisses. If you're texting your ex-boyfriend over 50 times a day, there's a pretty good chance that you still pine for him.
In Old English, pine meant "to torture or cause to experience pain," which seems quite fitting if you've known what it's like to pine for something or someone.
The other definition:
The verb pine should not be confused with the noun pine, as in the evergreen tree.
If you are from the Northeast or Northwest (U.S.) and find yourself living in the Caribbean, you may pine for the sight of a pine tree, but the lovely weather should ease the pain.

This clearly stems from a deep-rooted problem; what happens if you leaf off tree-ment for serious problems.
