You've Got a Package!
I love getting mail especially packages. I do a lot of online shopping, it is amazing what you can get online, it is amazing what you can get from amazon.com, but I’ll save that for a different blog article. FedEx is one of the more popular shipping companies not just in the US but globally, so it was interesting to stumble across an article which talks about some of the crazy shipments of animals and artifacts that the folks at FedEx have had to handle.
