The irony about hubs doing saturday deliveries..... if the package is PAID for Saturday deliveries, UPS is going to be there. My hub is closed, but I HAVE had Saturday deliveries despite that. So - figure that out.

Just looked and my local hub is closed tomorrow as well :( Bur you're right it does seem silly to pay for something that isn't exactly possible

With UPS expediting deliveries with mechanical or weather delays, does this mean they will deliver tomorrow (Saturday)?
 
Weird ,I just thought Apple used the fastest possible shipping on preorders?obviously not the case

Anybody from HK made it to Anchorage yet?

Flight my phone is likely on is just an hour away from Anchorage. I expect our phones will be in Louisville by 2 a.m or so tonight and then will be at the designation city early Monday morning for delivery.
 
Wondering has anyone received their updated delivery date yet for those of you whose shipments are in the US at least

Today's ear worm:

A place where nobody dared to go, the love that we came to know
They call it Xanadu
And now, open your eyes and see, what we have made is real
We are in Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are, a shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me, eternally
Xanadu, Xanadu, (now we are here) in Xanadu
Xanadu, Xanadu, (now we are here) in Xanadu
Xanadu, your neon lights will shine for you, Xanadu
The love, the echoes of long ago, you needed the world to know
They are in Xanadu
The dream that came through a million years
That lived on through all the tears, it came to Xanadu
A million lights are dancing and there you are, a shooting star
An everlasting world and you're here with me, eternally
Now that I'm here, now that you're near in Xanadu
Now that I'm here, now that you're near in Xanadu, Xanadu

I prefer this:

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.
So twice five miles of fertile ground
With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted
Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon lover!
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
A mighty fountain momently was forced:
Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,
Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail:
And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever
It flung up momently the sacred river.
Five miles meandering with a mazy motion
Through wood and dale the sacred river ran,
Then reached the caverns measureless to man,
And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean:
And 'mid this tumult Kubla heard from far
Ancestral voices prophesying war!

The shadow of the dome of pleasure
Floated midway on the waves;
Where was heard the mingled measure
From the fountain and the caves.
It was a miracle of rare device,
A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice!
A damsel with a dulcimer
In a vision once I saw;
It was an Abyssinian maid,
And on her dulcimer she played,
Singing of Mount Abora.
Could I revive within me
Her symphony and song,
To such a deep delight 'twould win me,
That with music loud and long,
I would build that dome in air,
That sunny dome! those caves of ice!
And all who heard should see them there,
And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
His flashing eyes, his floating hair!
Weave a circle round him thrice,
And close your eyes with holy dread,
For he on honey-dew hath fed,
And drunk the milk of Paradise


Even better when ya got shrooms!! Sam Coleridge FTMFW!!!

I ordered mine at 3:18 on 9/9. Finally got shipped 9/22 but it is coming from Ontario, CA. I'm just wondering why the weight is 9.7lbs

I ordered just a bit before you and mine shipped on 9/22 as well from Ontario, CA. We're definitely among the minority here, but I'm not complaining. :)
