Today when I arrived home at work I pulled into my garage and felt my truck
(1990 Toyota 4-Runner) run over something.

Uh-Oh!

My mailman has a very annoying habit of leaving packages that don't fit in
my mailbox up against my garage door.  When I open the door, the package
will fall down making it difficult to see.  I have sort of a blind entrance
to my garage as well.  I have almost run over packages on a couple of
occasions.

Well, today I did run over a package.  As soon as I pulled in I knew exactly
what was in it too.  I was expecting a package from a BrickBay order that
contained some 6x34 train wagon plates
(http://www.lugnet.com/cad/ldraw/parts/ref/images/2972.gif).

So I opened the box and much to my surprise, the only thing damaged was one
2x2 seat (http://www.lugnet.com/cad/ldraw/parts/ref/images/4079.gif).
Pretty amazing - I thought for sure the wagon plates would be broken.

Fortunately for me the packing job was superb.  I consider myself lucky.
Now I just have to catch my mailman so I can ask him not to put boxes in
front of the garage door.
