A stupid story about a dog (sort of)

Here is the synopsis of a short story:

October 30th 2023, sitting on couch

Scrolling through eBay searches

See 8 movie DVD set featuring Rin-Tin-Tin.  Stupid low price.

Did very quick check on stupid movie blog

Did not find any matches against sets I had in blog (which is only about 30% of collection but did include the big western pack.

It was $3 including shipping and tax

I purchase

Nov 1st - Package mailed from Austin TX and also goes through Dallas TX

Nov 2nd - Package arrives in Cincinnati OH.   Almost home, but Package decides he needs a vacation.  Departs Cincinnati.

Nov 3rd - Packge arrives in Pontiac MI.  Package decides he wants to visit the Motor City.

Nov 4th - Package arrives in Detroit MI.  After a 3 hr stay, Package makes an about face and departs Detroit.

Nov 4th - Package arrives in Cincinnati OH.  Almost home, but Package decides he didn't get a good vacation. 

Nov 5th - Pacakge is seen getting processed in St. Paul, Minnesota.  Package does not make eye contact and continues on his way.

Nov 7th - Word on the street is Package is 'In Transit to Next Facility' but with no details as to where he might be heading.

Nov 8th - Package arrives in Cincinnati and takes a break.  Almost home

Nov 9th - Package leaves Cincinnati and arrives at home.   

I take DVD set downstairs and check against my full list.

It turns out that all of the movies except one (The Return of Rin Tin Tin) are on the Family Fun 50 Movie Pack.  

Oops.  Oh well.  I have one more movie and my Rin Tin Tin movies will be in one place.
