LOL I have been staring at that off and on all day! I do believe they had bad weather in Memphis, but their plane took off exactly on time to Ft Myers 5:07 EST. (Every morning it leaves at 5:07) And my package made it there before it took off. I did work for UPS for 2 years and I have seen that packages sometimes get lost. It's just upsettingto me when it's an animal. If it was a Dell computer, no big deal.
