News You Can Bruise for 2008 September 25 (entry 0)

(4) Thu Sep 25 2008 23:18: Why did someone send me a letter from Hong Kong certified mail? The answer tomorrow, when I go to the post office. I'm kind of apprehensive.

Update: It wasn't a letter at all. It was a little package containing a gizmo I ordered. I didn't expect them to ship it direct from China.

Hopefully it wasn't the same domain name scam letter that someone from Hong Kong sent me last year.

re: gizmos from China -- I've been seeing that more lately; several packages alhp has ordered from the Web have come directly from Hong Kong rather than from (e.g.) a company in CA.
