Prosperity doesn't like me

Well, that was definitely the hardest time I've had getting a package in the mail.  I bought prosperity a while ago, and I got conditioner instead.  I bought it again (after returning the conditioner) and it never came.  On Thursday or Friday, I called the post office (who had it) and they said they never got it.  Due to policy, they had to wait until 8 days after they were supposed to get the package before looking for it.  That would be Sunday (two days ago).  They had to wait till after that day, which was Monday.  But it was a holiday, so they weren't open.  I called them yesterday, they said they would look for it and call me within 24 hours.  They didn't call, so I called them today.  They said they still didn't know where it was.  Then it came in the mail.

I actually drove an hour with my friend to get Prosperity back when it came out. The FLGS didn't have it yet, but one in Denver did! They actually hadn't even shelved it yet, but we called ahead and so they set aside a copy for me ;D

I got all the rest of the sets from Amazon or Boards & Bits.

I go on 10 hour road trips about twice a year.  I go a couple hours north of where I live every so often, and have gone on a few multiple-day road trips...  I guess it's kind of right...

This was one of the biggest cultural shocks when I moved from New England to California.  People in California would make the drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles every other week or so, just for a weekend trip.

...spin-offs are still better for all of the previously cited reasons.
But not strictly better, because the spinoff can have a different cost than the expansion.
