I have a letter to mail - it needs to be in TX by 11/15. I had looked into 2-day delivery via UPS, FedEx, etc. Those won't get to TX until Tuesday - license to kelly Nov 9, 12:17 24
- Does it have to be delievered by 11/15? I would use something that will guarantee that for you. - spamlet Nov 9, 12:21 9
  - It has to be there by the 15th. - license to kelly Nov 9, 12:25 7
    - Fed ex it -- nm - decline Nov 9, 12:28

        Ours is slightly different because most states use the postmark date, but Louisiana is *notorious* for assessing penalties based on "received date" - spamlet Nov 9, 12:39 1
        
        I would frankly risk the texas thing in 1st class mail unless it was vitally important. it'll make it. - amanda Nov 9, 12:43

    - will it get picked up today? does anything happen on Sundays? -- nm - Moneypandie Nov 9, 12:22 1
      - (i mean, i would figure it would be fine, but it depends what the repercussions are if it's late.) -- nm - Moneypandie Nov 9, 12:23
- If it's important enough that it *needs* to be there by a certain date, I would never use USPS. -- nm - Don Homer Nov 9, 12:18 2
  - Generally speaking, the postal service gets a bad rap and is pretty solid. But they don't offer many guarantees -- nm - Don Homer Nov 9, 12:20
  - I would use something that hand-delivered it, and possibly required a signature. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:19

- Oh, well if my friends don't agree, then I'm totally not going to tell someone that they probably have HIV. (???) -- nm - TFox Nov 9, 12:20 2
  - "Punch him in the mouth and then make him tell the dude." -- is this a TFox-approved solution? - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:38 1

- "I have no idea how to tackle this situation." Yeah, that's a tricky one. So many options. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Nov 9, 12:18
- Whoa. That's a motherfucker right there. Hell yeah, the other dude deserves to know. But who should tell him? - Jim Nov 9, 12:16 4

    - What better time to give someone AIDS PIE -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:47
  - I believe it's often looked as criminal. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 9, 12:17 1
    - yep. People have been convicted of it IIRC. -- nm - sycor Nov 9, 12:49
