Someone In Patchogue NY Sent Me Some Strings!

Well - there was no white, crystalline powder that smelled like anthrax.

There was no ticking nor oozing Haz-Mat stuff.

No bomb-sniffing dogs showed up at the door and the postman actually delivered it to my mailbox.

I think it was OK.

I've got a pix of the UPS truck taking the package away from his house though:::

thats Moms house where I get my mail, very weird are you sure they arent thomastik?

They're flats, red silks and are .044"-.102" - a little odd for the size by a thousandth or so, but close enough to the same size as my ROTO 77s.

Not too sure of the Tomastiks brand as I've never seen any of them.

You can't believe the amount of research I've been doing to try to find just how I came into possession of these strings, and YES - the name on the return address is yours.

Have I been punked? :crying:
 
This is still NOT resolved!

There are PMs. e-mails and possibly some phone calls gonna happen yet. We think there's a common culprit and his name starts with A_ xxxxx.

That's all I'm gonna say for now about WHO - but I still wanna know WHY and HOW!!!

I just KNEW posting that pix of the Big brown Truck would shake someone or something outta the trees though!

I may need Perry Mason to resolve this. :ninja:

Be ye in fear, 'A_ xxxxx' !!! You know who or whom you are! <edit note: I changed this to the real first letter of the screen name since this is starting to unravel now>

<edit #2 - 'and HE must be shamed, punished or made to reveal his true identity>
 
I freely admitted it MIGHT be PRESCRIPTION drugs on my end - but I know that's not the case now.

Drugs may factor into this yet!

And now that it seems to have a resolution at hand - once I thoroughly ROAST the guy who made me go nuts for the past day or so then I will post the whole circumstance.

You can bet I will!

This is just too good - and I couldn't write a better comedy of errors if I had Woody Allen to help me.
