[UC] Floor Sanding recommendation needed
Hello all, I need to have a small room's floor sanded by the end of next week! I have had difficulty getting A-1 Flooring over here to even look at the floor. Anyone have any other recommendations? All I need done is the sanding; I can do the polyurethane and quarter-rounds myself. (This was asked recently by another neighbor, but without much response.)

[UC] Speaker's corner
Hey Susan, Congrats on your upcoming trip to civilization! During my daily blessing of the animals, I asked the gods and goddesses to watch over your hellcat. Who needs an animal shrink when a pagan blessing is available? You'll be near to one of my favorite places on the planet, Speaker's Corner in Hyde park. If you find yourself wandering nearby, say a little prayer for us in the colonies from that holy spot. Some of us would like to renew the revolution and bring representative democracy to the oppressed colonials. Bon voyage, Glenn You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named UnivCity. To unsubscribe or for archive information, see http://www.purple.com/list.html.
Re: [UC] Floor Sanding recommendation needed
Margie, From my own archives of past advice: 5/06 Actually, Jonathan, I have used Henry's Flooring, and I am about to use them again. He was quick (in calling me back and in scheduling an appointment), inexpensive and did a great job! A rarity to find all three. We had an office party a month after it was done, and some girl who didn't care, left scuff marks all over my new floor. She should have been shot, but I refrain from violence when I can (considering your last recent encounter). ? Henry's Flooring: 856-663-4966 or his cell 856-308-3819 ? Hope this helps, or if you want to come by and look at his work you are welcome to stop by! I have photos of him working too! ? Dan Myers This is the only other listing I came across other than A-1.

RE: [UC] Beware UPS... Again
I'm sorry about your phone but I do agree with Suzanne. Across the board, we have had very good experiences with UPS. I work for a mail order company and we ship 10,000s of packages of perishable food. UPS consistantly gets our packages there accurately and on-time better than any other carrier (FedEx, DHL, and USPS - don't even get me started on USPS). We watch the numbers very closely and, with gas prices what they are, are constantly shopping around but keep coming back to UPS because they are the ones that get it done right. UPS' policy is they will only leave a package if there have been low or no instinces of theft of UPS packages in the area and the driver feels it is reasonably secure to do so. The fact that they did leave the package says that your block is not on their do not leave list - i.e. it is deemed safe by UPS. You can request that any UPS packages that you are expecting be left in a specific area or left with a neighbor, be rerouted to a different address (which will cost the shipper $), or be held at a UPS facility for you to pick up by leaving a note on your door. UPS is generally quite good at special requests and drivers, as Suzanne mentioned, tend to know their routes and the people on them well. A call to the 800# will be able to send a message to the driver on your route with a special request, as well. I know all of this doesn't help bring your package back but hopefully it will help for future deliveries. Naomi On Thu, Aug 21, 2008 at 8:19 PM, Susan Jacobson wrote: Sigh. UPS left the package with my international phone in it outside the front door of my apartment building when I was at work today. When I got home, it was gone. Fortunately, the phone only works if you enter a passcode. Piccell is sending another one to my office at Temple, hopefully to arrive before next Friday.

Re: [UC] Beware UPS... Again
Thank you. I considered having it sent to my husband¹s office, but since it was supposed to be a birthday surprise, I didn¹t.
