I saw a news story on TV today that a man had just received a postcard in Virginia that had been mailed to him five decades ago. It had a 2 cent stamp on it.

I thought I would just throw that out there for all you folks waiting and watching the mailbox. The postal service is a little slow sometimes.

Arg, they must must of lost every one of them. Nothing for me today showed mailed on the 24th and just down the street. Did not realize this would be the worst part of the wait. :mad5

Well unfortunately for me if it doesn't come tomorrow, I am going out of town for a week. Wasn't really expecting to get before my trip 2 weeks ago.... Then DPS had to go and get my hopes up! :banghead: :banghead:

What makes me mad is the fact I should of had mine a month ago like my wife, but the photos I sent in were not acceptable due to them not being able to see my eyes. I catch crap on a daily basis from her letting me know at least she can protect me if something goes down. I can just see it that DPS lost all of our CHL's and won't admit to it because they are behind already so we will have to wait 30 days to claim them lost then another 10 days to make them and re-mail.

Where's CATX? Its 11:10, and she said they get their mail at 10:15. I was hoping she'll have an update so I'd know weather to go straight home or just go run some errand after work.

Nothing :cryin I'm to the point now that I don't expect to get it before June. I figure I will have to wait till the 24th and have them do it all over again. It's so disappointing.

Oh man, haha that is awesome! Congratulations!

I'm in the 4/20 batch and live in Austin. My mailman just drove up to my apt, but he is the slowest person ever so I should know in 15 - 30 minutes. Hope the 4/20s are as lucky as you!

After my mailman took an hour and a half to deliver the mail for my medium sized apartment complex, I came away empty handed. No luck for 4/20 in Austin. I have hope for tomorrow, but if not then, I am just settling for an end of May delivery. :waiting:
