Fucking bullshit - I went to UPS to ship my misty magnum pad to the Rock Ranch. Pad weighs in at 19lbs. Online it says 20lbs ships from PA. to El Paso for roughly $28. Unfortunately after all the bullshit, they say it will cost me $130+ to ship it! Something they call, "dimensional weight" - I call it here's my foot go shove it up your ass!

The wonderful clerk then informs me - "but you could stuuf whatever you want into it up to 97lbs and it wouldn't cost you any more $$" - so if a midget wieghing 78lbs or less wants to jump in my Misty magnum for a trip to El Paso, I''ve got a deal for you.

That sucks but I'm not surprised. Break it down and stuff it into a box or some boxes that aren't oversize.

If i were only flying to ELP, this would be an option, but I am flying to Mexico, then to ELP then home. The $75 in bag fees makes the decision easy - RENT and/or mooch

Training: the most efficient way to make absolutely certain that you're injured at the start of a trip.

Yeh, rent. My buddy from Vegas and I have enough pads that if you're too cheap to rent you can borrow one, but we might make you tag along to our projects.
