Well they did show up on the 20th but my internet buried cable had been cut by an AT&T fiber optic cable installation sub-contractor. It was a few days before the cable was repaired and internet connection restored. It took until later on the 23rd before I obtained the Amazon Locker ID code to pick them up.

FWIW my love of Twizzlers goes back to the 50's when "red licorice" was my once-weekly treat and reward for who knows what? It wasn't as though I was a thoughtful, respectful co-operative child.

But anyway not sure I'd like the Orange Cream Pop flavor---I had a major meltdown when "green licorice" (spearmint) came into being---HOW could THEY????

I've been eating the red ones about as long as you have. And I agree that the spearmint ones should be left to the toothless, little old ladies!

But being a fan of Orange, those orange Twizzlers are righteous.

Unrelated -- Back in '88 I worked for a company that built lottery systems. We'd built a state-of-the-art system with about a dozen bi-directional communications concentrators around the state in a large loop. The theory being that if there was a cable cut anywhere in the system the data traffic would reverse flow from next to the cut and business would go on without interruption. It all worked beautifully for years, until a backhoe cut the 2-mile long cable between the AT&T main POP and lottery headquarters.

I'm usually behind our law enforcement guys (and gals), but this one wins the douchebag award today.

Well I'm gonna just have to sample those Orange Twizzlers then---when a sound recommendation comes from a fellow long-time red licorice fan its something I can't ignore!

Boy that's tough luck on the cut cable---always those unintended mishaps that ruin even the best of plans or designs.

Not only a fellow long-time red licorice fan, but I've got family not too far from you. My step-mom passed away not too long ago, but the rest of her family is in or around Logan.

Enjoy!!!!
