Thanks.
I drove down to Chateaugay, NY to get my mail and there was a note asking me to report to the counter. When I got there the post office person pulled out the envelope and asked me if I am 'Gremlin'.

Apparently they wouldn't deliver it to a 'Gremlin' with a return address of 'The Sticker Nazi'.

I had to explain TT and FYAO. Luckily the clerk thought it was funny - but I wonder how long it will be before they're issued with Mace.

When (and if) it stops raining I'll put it on the car.

for such an odd case, a full investigation at the border may be in order - complete with a body cavity search.

Hey it's Gremlin. How are things in the Great White North or is it the Great Brown North like it is down here?

No white, Zac. We didn't really have a winter this year.

odd - I often get mail in my post office box addressed to HOI with no problem - of course I often use HOI in my return address - maybe they have picked up on that and recognize a nickname

I just might try the Santanonis this week-end - if things dry out.
