One of my favorite Cheech & Chong scenes has Cheech & Chong trying to contact the police after they discover that their van has been stolen.
The problem: they don’t know the right name.
“Cop?”
Nope.
“Fuzz?”
Can’t find it.
“Heat,” “pig,” “The Man?”
Still nothing.
So, it turns out that the reason my emails to TuffShed, a Home Depot contractor, never arrived is that I spelled “Tuffshed,” “Toughshed.”
The odd part is that the emails never bounced or otherwise got returned.
P.S.: You really don’t have this kind of glitch until you reach a certain level of technology.
Even the USPS does this right – snail mail and all. They will return something that gets bounced.
