Got my FedEx package today... the guy in LC kept his word after all; the "returned to sender" notice was just computer-generated bullshit. So I'm about $560 richer for the next 24 to 48 hours or so, until I get to El Paso and buy a new set of storage batteries. Catch me before then and I might buy you a beer...
Speaking of which, I've been convinced of how much money I waste buying kegs of Guinness and no Irishmen coming to help me drink it. From now it's just bottles; at least those labeled "Draught" still come from Ireland, though the others, so I hear, are made in Canada. Nothing tastes as good as unpasteurized Guinness out of the keg, but I can't afford spending $180 per and throwing most of it away.
