UPS Shennanigans

I've been trying to take delivery of a UPS package (our shiny new printer) for three days now. I missed it friday because I stopped for a cinnabon on the way back from the airport. Yesterday I missed it because the wireless doorbell failed silently.

I'm not taking any risks today, the third and final delivery attempt. I changed the batteries in the wireless doorbell. I put a note out front assuring that we are open. And I just set up a wireless x-10 camera to monitor the approach. If only I had time to rig my sonar module to detect people standing in front of the door. I could make a boo-boop-boo-boop-they're-right-in-front-of-us-man-this-can't-be-happening interface for the VJ.
