Oh, Imagine having the two of 'em in the top spots, some suit would have to take notice!

BEAUTIFUL!

And yes, stupid penguins who can't even stay home, but have to cart their poor young 80 miles? What kind of parents are those?
GAH!

thats amazing, and considering all the right wing christians (of which I believe there're quite a lot) were told they had to watch the penguins or go to hell (words to that effect) its even better

Okay, I'm really peeved.
Amazon just sent a shipping confirmation saying my dvd would arrive January 4th!!!!!!
With a three week pre-order and 2nd day shipping??????? WTF?????

I just called everywhere in our small town asking if they had it. Uh. No.
"Uh, why not?"
"Didn't know it would be this popular."

Actually, response at Rite-Aid was "God no. I wish!"

So. I'm driving the friggin' hour to Wal-Mart tonight. Forget this!

Amazon's shipping estimates are for if it were to take the most time at the slowest possible route. Amazon said delivery after Christmas for my orders as well and my brother's DVD has already arrived at my mom's house and my box of 5 DVDs is scheduled to arrive tommorrow acording to UPS.

But even if they shipped two day TODAY, which is according to their shipping confirmation, I won't have them in time for Christmas.
Pisses me off.
Ah, well. We all know Amazon is just a giant publisher screwing rottweiller. Should have known better than to trust them with something like this.

Yeah, Amazon's delivery dates are always ridiculously conservative; don't even bother with them.

If your order was shipped today (Thursday), I'd say you're probably okay (but don't hold me to that!). I've gotten a few different things from Amazon this month, always with the free shipping option, which is theoretically the slowest, and received them 2-3 days after the e-mail notification - they're very good about speedy delivery around X-mas. My copy of the BDM was shipped on Monday, and arrived on Wednesday.
