I mentioned a few weeks ago that a customer ordered a copy of Mac OSX for me, as a bonus for some work I did for him.

Unfortunately, Apple didn't have any copies in stock, so it didn't ship, and it didn't ship, and it didn't ship. Finally, on Wednesday, we heard that it was being shipped out.

So where was it?

Apple included the tracking number in the email that said it had shipped. I went to FedEx to track the shipment, hoping that since it hadn't arrived Friday that they'd at least deliver it on Monday.

Hmm. I guess I'm a dope.

Yep, they were right. There it was, sitting at my front door, shivering in the cold. What a knucklehead.
