WARNING, Will Roberson, WARNING!!!!!!

FedEx has changed some of thier "officail" pick up/latest time to call for pick up times.

You might check you Sat drop off locations for thier current"official" FedEx pick up time.
It seems FedEx has re-evaluated thier "official" pick up/latest time to call for pick up. Your location my have a driver who picks up later than the "official" pick up time; BUT, if a non regular/relief/new driver is picking up he may be closer to the "official" time.
This just happen to me this Sat AM. At 11:30 am, I arrived at the location I drop my FedEx off on Sat to be told a relief driver had pick up about 15 minutes before. The operator had asked why as he had a 12 Noon "official" pick up time on the FedEx website. She told him that this was the route her supervisior told her to use. He called FedEx only to be told that his "official"/latest time to call for a pick was now 11 am.
By the way the nearest FedEx Office location or FedEx terminial is over 20 miles. So I warn you to check the FedEX times before you get a big suprise.

Boy, you must be young enough to be my grand-child.
The orginal "Lost in Space" 50's black and white Sat morning TV series.
Tis was the "robot" major line. Said to the teen age boy of the family generally for some problem cause by the non-family male adult who could not use common sense, Phd (Dr) of some "science" degree.
If you ever can catch it, you won't be able to walk away from it as it so "1950 early TVish".
A fun 30 miutes.

Bill Mumy was Wil Robinson. June Lockart was the mom and Angela Cartright was the sister. Can['t remember who played the professor or dad. Great family show. Ahh, those were the good ol' days.

"Can't remember who played the professor or dad"

Dad was Guy Williams, and Jonathan Harris was Dr Smith.

Here's a link:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost_in_Space

Lost in Space is a science fiction television program created and produced by Irwin Allen, produced by 20th Century Fox Television, and broadcast on CBS. The show ran for three seasons, with 83 episodes airing between 1965 and March 6, 1968. The first season was shot with black and white film, the rest in color. In 1998, a film based on the series was released. The show focused primarily on Jonathan Harris as Dr. Zachary Smith, originally an utterly evil would-be killer who as the first season progressed became a cowardly character, providing comic relief to the show (and causing most of the problems).
