this has been fun.
first, last thursday, a coworker asked me if I wanted to contribute to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, and I said, "I'll have to wait....until I know how much it costs to mail Doritos to Sweden."
then when I went to Target to buy them, there were two Doritos delivery guys there so I got the FRESHEST cool ranch and spicer nacho.
Doritos Delivery Guy 1: hey, how are ya. let me get out of your way...
Me: no problem...hey guys, what's on sale...
Doritos Delivery Guy 2: those big bags up on the top...
Me: cool....I've got to mail some Doritos to Sweden.
Doritos Delivery Guy 2: WTF? Sweden doesn't have Doritos?
Doritos Delivery Guy 1: Man, I thought Sweden had one of the highest standards of living in the world!
Me: well, apparently they don't have Doritos!!
and then I had the box taped up and labeled, and I went to the post office:
Me: Hi, I've got to mail this box to Sweden.
Postal Clerk: have you filled out a customs declaration form?
Me: No...*starts scribbling out form*
Postal Clerk: We can send this parcel post for 7$, it will get there in three to five weeks...
Me: That's UNACCEPTABLE!! There is a Swedish guy who needs these Doritos ASAP!!
Postal Clerk: Well, there's air mail, that will be seven days or so...
Me: Thank you, my good man, there is a young Swedish gentleman who will be thanking you anonymously...
