    yeah it should have been there by wednesday for sure. either he's screwing with you, or something really is ****ed up.

    without a proper return addy the gear will float around.

    are you sure you put his address correct ?

    That would suck. Saying he didn't get the gear and he did, then wanting you to send more or pay him back. Or it floating around. Either way, it would suck.

    how would u pick it up even if it was there? they will make you show proof of residency and with a fals address you're looking at mail fraud i believe.... i dont know what to tell you... are you 100% sure you put the correct addy on the package, one little mistake and it might not get there.

    One other idea... Did you buddy have you use a fake name #1?
    Or does he live in a apartment complex where they could have
    left it outside his door and someone else could have taken it #2?
    This happens sometimes... Do you have the receipt form the PO
    it lists the DC# on there too...

    Come down children play nice, and short of asking your friend to go to the post office and asking for it, they sometimes wont deliver stuff if it's big and will leave a little sticker on your door/mailbox

    What is Haiku?

    Haiku is one of the most important form of traditional japanese poetry. Haiku is, today, a 17-syllable verse form consisting of three metrical units of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. Since early days, there has been confusion between the three related terms Haiku, Hokku and Haikai. The term hokku literally means "starting verse", and was the first starting link of a much longer chain of verses known as haika. Because the hokku set the tone for the rest of the poetic chain, it enjoyed a privileged position in haikai poetry, and it was not uncommon for a poet to compose a hokku by itself without following up with the rest of the chain.

    Largely through the efforts of Masaoka Shiki, this independence was formally established in the 1890s through the creation of the term haiku. This new form of poetry was to be written, read and understood as an independent poem, complete in itself, rather than part of a longer chain.

    Strictly speaking, then, the history of haiku begins only in the last years of the 19th century. The famous verses of such Edo-period (1600-1868) masters as Basho, Yosa Buson, and Kobayashi Issa are properly referred to as hokku and must be placed in the perspective of the history of haikai even though they are now generally read as independent haiku. In HAIKU for PEOPLE, both terms will be treated equally! The distinction between hokku and haiku can be handled by using the terms Classical Haiku and Modern Haiku.

    Modern Haiku.
    The history of the modern haiku dates from Masaoka Shiki's reform, begun in 1892, which established haiku as a new independent poetic form. Shiki's reform did not change two traditional elements of haiku: the division of 17 syllables into three groups of 5, 7, and 5 syllables and the inclusion of a seasonal theme.
    Kawahigashi Hekigoto carried Shiki's reform further with two proposals:


    Haiku would be truer to reality if there were no center of interest in it.
    The importance of the poet's first impression, just as it was, of subjects taken
    from daily life, and of local colour to create freshness.


    ----------------------------------------------------------------------
    How to write Haiku

    In japanese, the rules for how to write Haiku are clear, and will not be discussed here. In foreign languages, there exist NO consensus in how to write Haiku-poems. Anyway, let's take a look at the basic knowledge:


    What to write about?

    Haiku-poems can describe almost anything, but you seldom find themes which are too complicated for normal PEOPLE's recognition and understanding. Some of the most thrilling Haiku-poems describe daily situations in a way that gives the reader a brand new experience of a well-known situation.


    The metrical pattern of Haiku

    Haiku-poems consist of respectively 5, 7 and 5 syllables in three units. In japanese, this convention is a must, but in english, which has variation in the length of syllables, this can sometimes be difficult.


    The technique of cutting

    The cutting divides the Haiku into two parts, with a certain imaginative distance between the two sections, but the two sections must remain, to a degree, independent of each other. Both sections must enrich the understanding of the other.
    To make this cutting in english, either the first or the second line ends normally with a colon, long dash or ellipsis.

    The seasonal theme.

    Each Haiku must contain a kigo, a season word, which indicate in which season the Haiku is set. For example, cherry blossoms indicate spring, snow indicate winter, and mosquitoes indicate summer, but the season word isn't always that obvious.

    Please notice that Haiku-poems are written under different rules and in many languages. For translated Haiku-poems, the translator must decide whether he should obey the rules strictly, or if he should present the exact essence of the Haiku. For Haiku-poems originally written in english, the poet should be more careful. These are the difficulties, and the pleasure of Haiku.

    Like I said it looks like your wearing a Pamper, take it easy bro people have different fashion styles. I think its comical that you can threaten people over the net LMFAO. How do you know who your even talking to? Me for instance have been a fighter most of my childhood and 80% of my adult life and the only reason I quit is because of broken hands. I can't imagine threatening someone on a webpage?????? To each his own I guess..........Funny Shi@

    Back to the missing gear. Don't claim **** at the post office. In addition, don't ship stuff by US mail. Because the US mail is operated by the federal government if you do get caught you'll most likely have a few extra major charges against you. FEDEX or UPS.
