Sorry I didn't answer your question DR ELMORE.....no I do not have an all region DVD player.
As to your post RE:the Post Office.
My MP3 player left California on October 5 - via first class.....and there have been NO updates since then.
I looked at those returned checks yesterday.
1. I mailed my health insurance premium, due Aug 7, on July 22. On August 3, I mailed my final health insurance premium before Medicare kicked in via Priority Mail.
2. On Aug 5, I canceled payment on the July 22 check and hand delivered a replacement.
3. When the Priority Mail check hadn't arrived by August 9, six days after mailing it, I canceled payment on it and mailed a second by Priority Mail to a different address I was given when I hand delivered the payment.
From the returned check, it looks as if the check from July was denied payment on Aug 25, nearly a full month since I posted it. I have no idea when the HMO mailed it back to me, but it arrived on Oct 13.
