My laptop has arrived!
Yaaay!
I think I'll let the box cool down a bit before I open it.

What, was it shipped via orbital capsule re-entry? (Or is it just that hot in Texas?)

Maybe he means in a figurative sense. Sometimes it's fun to let it sit there for a bit and savor the anticipation.

Oh, no doubt. But I enjoyed the image of a FedEx-branded capsule embedding itself in KT's yard, heat tiles burning off in the afternoon air.

Please supply the latitude and longitude of an empty area near your address. Also please supply the allowable error in this latitude and longitude - more precise delivery is more expensive.

Shooting the package out of a ground-based cannon would probably work out more cost-effective than a full launch-orbit-descent deal.

True! But with some onboard jets you could do course correction in orbit, letting you land in different directions (in case the target lives on a cul-de-sac or something).

You know, this all sounds very troublesome. Maybe they should just stick with teleportation.

It is a bit warm today. And mainly I was in the middle of something else when it arrived. And second-mainly I'm probably not going to start trying it out until tomorrow because I want to be ready for it and have a full day to play around with it.

Your lap had no top until today? I hope it had a bottom at least.

KT gets turned on by public nudity, but I hope he doesn't practice it.

Was it powered on and running inside the box? o.O
