I just about had a heart attack, I was so startled. I'm in my office when I hear someone run up the stairs to my front door, an extremely loud thud, then running down the stairs.
My heart racing, I wonder what it could be. Then again, the same thing; running up the stairs, THUD, running down the stairs.
I'm still startled but realize it could be a delivery. I wonder what it could be since I'm not expecting anything...
As I open the front door, it happens again; running up the stairs, THUD, and the UPS guy runs down again.
I'm still a bit shaken up from the initial (then unidentified) thud, but pleased that three very heavy boxes are stacked by my door, each filled with copies of ColdFusion MX 7 Web Application Construction Kit.
Even as I type this message my heart is not quite back to its normal pace. Whatever happened to the days when the driver would knock or ring the doorbell...?

Wow! So when are you opening that bookstore? ;^)
:-) I'm too lazy to deal with the shipping or I'd probably consider it! ~Angela

Egads- sounds like it's time for a motion-sensor doormat, or maybe a really loud dog... ;-)
Hope your heartrate is back to normal now!
I like the idea of a motion-sensor dog bark! :-) My ticker's beating normally now, thanks! ~Angela

Hehehe. You obviously have more copies than you need. I'd be only too happy to "look after" two copies for you (one for me, one for a friend).
;-) I usually pack a few each conferene or User Group meeting to give away. I'll be at Powered by Detroit and TODCon. No meetings on my schedule just yet... ~Angela

Sorry Angela, I couldn't stop laughing. It was like a black humor movie... and knowing you I can imagine your fear.
It's ok; I don't mind. :-) I think it is pretty funny too. ~Angela
