Pretty good lettuce wrapped burger and safe fries. Knowledgeable chain restaurant that tries hard to address allergies.
When you tell them you have a gluten allergy, they pull out all the stops. I can't tell you how much I love eating a burger and fries that I didn't have to cook myself.
5582 Spectrum Dr, Frederick, MD 21703
Dedicated fryer and GF buns. Burgers and Fries again, oh my. Food is good and they are very conscious about GF.
95 N. Moorland Road, Brookfield, WI 53005
Tastes so good, you'd never know it's gluten free. Never have been sick from their food either.
1507 Highwoods Blvd., Greensboro, NC 27410
Good place for individuals who have gluten sensitivity/celiac. Gluten free bun was surprisingly good, not too hard or dry. Was also able to get fries, which they recommended no seasoning? But no sickness afterwards :)
21170 SW Adams Avenue, Sherwood, OR 97140
We spoke to the server and he seemed to understand our request for gluten/dairy free food. My sons salad came w shredded cheese on top and both of them had immediate stomach aches for days after we ate there. Disappointed
1075 Burlington Blvd., Burlington, WA 98233
Waiter was very friendly when asked about gluten free options and although he was not extensively knowledgeable, he was very accommodating. They do have separate fryers for GF foods. Have not tried their GF buns yet.
8425 Northlake Commons Blvd., Charlotte, NC 28216
Very knowledgeable staff, took extra care in making sure there was no cross contamination (they have a new special fryer just for gluten free items). Full gluten free menu. A+++++ experience!
18029 Garden Way NE, Woodinville, WA 98072
Red Robin is one of the few places that I, a celiac, feel safe eating at. This location is no different. The staff is friendly and willing to make the necessary adjustments to dishes (e.g. I like my Avo-Cobb-O salad vegetarian in addition to being gluten-free). The freckled lemonade is my all-time favorite drink out of any chain restaurant, and the garlic fries are delicious. I recommend!
21170 SW Adams Avenue, Sherwood, OR 97140
It's an average chain restaurant that serves burgers, but where they excel is how they handle allergy issues. They are very careful with cross contamination. If they make a mistake, talk to a manager, they will make it right. Gluten free menu is online; just ask for the iPad for allergy options if you don't have a smart phone.
1986 Medical Center Parkway, Murfreesboro, TN 37129
just visited and had a terribly hard gf bun. talked to the manager and he said it's the new buns they will be serving. I seriously could not chew the edges and the bun fell apart while eating it. I go to Red Robin to enjoy a burger on a bun. If this is the bun they offer I will not return.
310 Daniel Webster Hwy, Nashua, NH 03060
What was once a safe place to eat GF has gotten me with cross contam the last couple of visits. During yesterday's visit, the fries tasted like onion rings. I've been sick ever since. My kids love to eat here, but it looks like my hubby will be taking them by himself.
31805 John R. Road, Madison Heights, MI 48071
Seperate fryer for gluten free fries. Have gluten free buns & a ton of choices for gluten free. I have celiac & have never gotten ill from eating at Red Robin. It's my favorite!
1020 Pittsburgh Mills Circle, Tarentum, PA 15084
Let your hostess and waitress know you are gluten free. They will bring you an iPad which will generate their allergen menu. Server was knowledgeable and I saw on the receipt that she put an allergy alert in with the order several times. Fries have a dedicated fryer so no CC but they will still have to make you a separate batch because the seasoning they put on after is not GF. With that being said, this is a chain and they use a lot of preservatives and not wholesome ingredients which make me feel crappy so I won't be going back (we only went because we had a gift card). If that stuff doesn't bother, they do handle gluten free well it seems.
3420 W. Chandler Blvd., Chandler, AZ 85226
This is our go to place when we need the meal to be bulletproof safe. They always do a good job. Decent options for the menu.
325 Marketplace Blvd., Hamilton, NJ 08691
This is our go-to burger place. We know we can always get a good burger and fries here. The waiter and the managers are always knowledgeable about GF when we are there and have never had any issues or gotten sick after a meal.
4010 N Main Street, Mishawaka, IN 46545
My family eats here frequently and my celiac daughter has never once gotten sick. They are very careful about cross contamination and usually very friendly and helpful. My daughter loves their gluten free bun, she says it's the best she's ever had. She also loves their chili fries, salads and root beer floats.
4850 Monroe Street, Toledo, OH 43623
Great job with our GF nut free family!
3797 Carpenter Road, Pittsfield Township, MI 48197
Livonia location: I was assured by my server that the sauces were gluten free and that my meal was safe. It was not. I endured four days of painful side effects that started within minutes of eating my meal. The manager did speak with me but did not follow up or offer to comp my meal. I will not be going back.
2031 Bronze Star Drive, Woodland, CA 95776
They have gluten free hamburger buns that are great! And if you tell them you have celiacs/ can't have gluten they will note that on your order so they can keep cross contamination to a minimum
125 Old Country Road, Carle Place, NY 11514
Great gluten free options just wish they had separate menu's and a separate fryer! Love telling my gluten free tours about this!!
4010 N Main Street, Mishawaka, IN 46545
I am disappointed. yes the food was good. The hamburger was good. The service sucked. We went around 1:30 pm the parking lot was pretty empty. It took 20 minutes for someone to come take the order. The restaurant was almost empty so not sure why we had to wait so long. They use Udi buns which they nuke. Mine was so tough I had a hard time cutting it.
621 Park Avenue, Hershey, PA 17033
delicious burger and fries. the bun was phenomenal.
6401 Bluebonnet Boulevard, Baton Rouge, LA 70836
The service isn't always up to par, but i love the food. Just make sure they give you fries without the seasonings.
8000 West Broward Boulevard, Unit 422, Plantation, FL 33388
Yummy turkey burger
1845 14th Avenue SE, Heritage Mall, Albany, OR 97321
The server, Austin, was completely knowledgable about what products this restaurant has that are specifically gluten-free, and gave me alternate options such as sliced avocado instead of guacamole. The GF bun was delicious. They do have a dedicated GF fryer but I'm unsure if their fries are really GF so opted for steamed broccoli. Haven't had such a delicious burger in years, Red Robin will be my new go-to!
801 SE 160th Avenue, Vancouver, WA 98683
The gluten-free menu is not a menu in hand, but off your smart phone. They will bring you an iPad if you don't have one. They use a separate fryer they say, but in the bottom of my fries was a battered something (jalapeño?) As you leave the restaurant you can see in the kitchen which is a disaster! Food all over the floor, no order at all.
5125 Jonestown Road #125, Harrisburg, PA 17112
While they served my meal almost to order (a bacon, avocado burger on a gluten free bun), the burger was tasteless, the bun was hard and chewy and they still put cheese on it even though I asked for none. I've eaten at other locations and did not have quite so poor a presentation.
11420 Capital Blvd., Wake Forest, NC 27587
Lots of burger/chicken sandwich options, dedicated fryers, and knowledgeable/friendly staff.
3003 Commerce Crossing, Commerce, MI 48390
They have lots of options & have great gluten-free buns!
1200 Towne Centre, Suite 1100, Provo, UT 84601
Me gusta. They use Udi's buns which is ok I suppose. But I have had zero problems with service or contamination. The servers always seem to be knowledgable about gluten.
5100 N 9th Avenue, Pensacola, FL 32504
I eat here regularly with no issues. The staff understands the seriousness of preventing cross contamination. I get the simply grilled chicken on the gluten free bun. My friend who dines gluten-free also likes the gluten-free chili burger and the avo-cobbo-salad (ask to substitute goat cheese for the blue cheese & request the bread be left off)
6522 Strip Ave. NW, Canton, OH 44720
Good service!!! Staff is caring and concerned. We ordered spinach artichoke dip and they came out to tell us the chips typically served with are not fried in a GF fryer! They ave us an alternative and it was great. Hubby really like GF buns!!!
8970 E. Shea Blvd., Scottsdale, AZ 85260
1. Our server, Sam was awesome! 2. Totally GF as I had the cheeseburger and fries 3. They serve GF Omission beer by the bottle, and at a very reasonable rate 4. 5 stars for my experience
2860 Route 34, Oswego, IL 60543
My daughter's favorite. She ALWAYS gets a burger with gf bun, ketchup, mustard and pickles, plate of fries and strawberry lemonade. Never been sick after a visit.
1410 US Hwy 41, Schererville, IN 46375
When I mentioned that I had a gluten allergy, the server didn't hesitate to explain that there's an app that I can browse to figure out what I can have. She didn't seem angry or bothered at all. They also said that the fries are GF because they have a new recipe for their seasoning.
100 Bluefish Drive, Panama City Beach, FL 32413
Red robin is our go to gfree favorite. My son gets a kids burger on a gfree bun and loves it!
2720 Carl T Jones Dr SE, Huntsville, AL 35802
I LOVE going here. The staff is extremely knowledgable about allergy concerns, and they have a special menu stating what you can eat. As a bonus--the fries are GF!! (Just ask for no seasoning, as some people may have a reaction.) I absolutely recommend the Red's Tavern burger.
101 East Brannon Road, Nicholasville, KY 40356
They use a different deep fryer for celiac customers change their gloves. It's just hard for me to get used to the GF bun. Other than personal preference, RedRobin did a great job accommodating.
37701 Six Mile Road, Livonia, MI 48152
I love the Tavern Double GF burger. Have not been sick after many times eating there.
10009 Coors Blvd. NW, Albuquerque, NM 87114
It's pretty good the staff has always been very nice and took care of me right away
408 Bellevue Square, Bellevue, WA 98004
They have GF buns!!! And all fries are GF as well!
401 E. Dimond Blvd., Anchorage, AK 99515
I was very skeptical going into this restaurant but they had a great allergen menu, which was only available online. I had a burger with a GF bun. Very tasty. Still wish hey had GF fries or onion rings, but I'll take what I can get. I will definitely come here again.
301 South Hills Village, Bethel Park, PA 15241
Delicious gluten free Red Robin cheeseburger on a g free bun, careful kitchen prep, and friendly service. I told the server I had an allergy to gluten not by choice but by requirement, and the server said they would take extra precautions to keep my food safe. When the manager brought my "gluten free burger" (words upon delivery of food) I knew they had. After our meal we chatted with the friendly server who said a family who has a child who is allergic to multiple ingredients can only eat out at this restaurant due to the extra care they take in the kitchen. They cook his burger on a piece of foil on the grill. This location really cares about food safety, and my burger and extra fries were delicious.
6255 Mills Civic Pkwy., West Des Moines, IA 50266
Wonderful! Dedicated frier for fries!
45305 Abell House Lane, California, MD 20619
My usual standby for a restaurant. The gluten free bun was chewy and tough. The burger tasted like it came out of the freezer. Frys were just so so. I was disappointed, my first bad experience at a Red Robin. However, not bad Glutenwise, but food sucked.
8720 IH40 West Frontage Road, Amarillo, TX 79124
I have been glutened once here and believe it was cross contamination, the bun was gluten free. I've eaten here several times with no problems. The more my waiter knows about gluten the better my experience is!
360 Buckland Hills Drive, Manchester, CT 06040
This place is mostly great, but one time I got sick because the manager did not know anything about gluten, and I got sick. I think they hired a new one, and that is the only time I got sick there! Great restaurant
1000 Greengate Centre Blvd., Greensburg, PA 15601
Expensive but worth it because my food was good and i had no gluten contaminations
2450 E 17th Street, Idaho Falls, ID 83404
I am super sensitive Celiac and I reacted to something, or I'd give 5. It wasn't a big reaction, but still enough I was in pain and dealing with the repercussions. They have an iPad you can ask for, put all your allegories into, and it will tell you what on the menu you can have. They also have gluten free buns. I would recommend to those not as sensitive as I am, and will try again in a few months.
8304 Kenbrooke Drive, Charlotte, NC 28262
Very delicious and had no reaction!
295 Parkway Drive, Lincolnshire, IL 60069
Lots of options. Thought it was a little weird that I had to use my phone to see GF menu versus iPads I've seen at other locations.

Oilers rule out Nugent-Hopkins for preseason
Sep 8, 2013, 6:58 PM EDT
In case there was any doubt left, Edmonton Oilers GM Craig MacTavish confirmed to 630 CHED's Dan Tencer on Sunday that Ryan Nugent-Hopkins won't play in any preseason games.
"Absolutely not," MacTavish said.
Instead, the new Oilers GM said they're sticking with "the most pessimistic schedule that they started with," which is a target date of Nov. 1.
Naturally, the 20-year-old might beat that estimate, yet it might be a good rule of thumb.
Nugent-Hopkins recently said that his shoulder is healing well, noting that his shot feels better than it did last year. The Oilers are probably wise not to rush him back too soon, though.

The Modern Benoni was invented in 1927 by Frank Marshall at the New York Chess Tournament. Marshall played it twice, first for a draw against Capablanca, and again later losing to Aron Nimzowitch whom labeled the Modern Benoni an "unfortunate extravagance" in his annotations. In the 1950s interest in the system revived, as the King's Indian Defense gained in popularity among Soviet players and their investigations branched into related opening systems such as the Benoni. The imbalance inherent in the pawn structure of the Modern Benoni and the counter-chances this implies for Black appeals to aggressive players.

The Queen's Gambit is one of the oldest known chess openings. In early modern chess, queen pawn openings were not in fashion, and the Queen's Gambit did not become common until the 1873 tournament in Vienna. As the appreciation for positional play increased and was developed by both Steinitz and Tarrasch the Queen's Gambit grew more popular. The Queen's Gambit is still frequently played and it remains an important part of many grandmasters opening repertoires.

Affordable insurance for small businesses
But because of the Affordable Care Act, Washington small businesses and their employees are getting better choices, starting with new protections that limit the outrageous rate hikes many small business owners faced in the past.
Beginning in 2014, Washington small business owners will have access to a new Health Insurance Marketplace called Washington Healthplanfinder -- which opens for enrollment Oct. 1 -- that will allow them to make side-by-side comparisons to find a plan that fits their budget and that's right for their businesses and employees. Each Marketplace will operate a Small Business Health Options Program, or SHOP, focused just on small businesses, where employers will be able to choose from a range of affordable plans to offer their employees.
Small businesses are also seeing savings thanks to new tax credits available to help them cover their employees. Many small businesses with 25 or fewer employees have already received a tax credit of up to 35 percent of their health insurance costs. Beginning in 2014, this tax credit will go up to 50 percent.
That's just one of the ways the law is bringing down costs for small business owners. Insurance companies must also now publicly justify every rate increase of 10 percent or more, which has led to a sharp decline in double-digit rate hikes. Starting in 2014, insurers will have to justify every proposed rate increase, even if it's a 1 percent bump.
Additional rules require insurers to spend at least 80 percent of small employer premium dollars on employees' actual health benefits, instead of the insurer's own administrative costs. These limits have already resulted in more than $1 billion being returned to small business owners and other consumers.
The law has also begun to slow rising costs across the system by reducing waste and fraud and promoting higher quality care that emphasizes coordination and prevention. These changes in care delivery have contributed to the slowest sustained national health spending growth in 50 years. Small businesses are the backbone of our communities. In an economy where small businesses create two-thirds of jobs, owners and employees deserve a health insurance market with fairer prices, better choices, and greater certainty. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act, that market is on its way.
While many small business owners have questions about the employer responsibility provision, it is important to note that businesses with fewer than 50 employees – that's 96% of small businesses – are not required to purchase insurance. Of the remaining 4 percent of small businesses with more than 50 employees, most already provide insurance. So the number of businesses that will have to begin offering employee health insurance or pay a penalty is very small.
No business owner wants to drop coverage for their employees. For many, their employees are like a family. For others, offering health insurance is critical to attracting the kind of workers they need to succeed.
By making the health insurance market work better for Washington's small businesses, the law is letting them focus on what they do best: delivering great products and services, creating jobs, and growing our economy.
To receive information and sign up for updates, Washington's small business owners can visit healthcare.gov. If they have any questions, they can contact SBA's Seattle District Office at 206-553-7310 or the Health and Human Services office at 206-615-2010.

Although I concede your point, you've managed to completely remove any humor from my post, that may or may not have been there. I never said she put my or her name on it. For the first few hundred letters to people at your address that you've never heard of you assume it's all sort of some mistake. Then after explaining to the postal carrier that you don't actually in-fact live on a commune nor have more than a passing interest in BDSM; you begin to suspect foul play... You wait for the slip up... for days or weeks or months... someone somewhere is going to ask you about your mail... Then SHE does, and it's ON! You spend your time in the dark hours of the night subscribing her address to news letters most likely watched by DHS or the ATF.

I like the cut of your jib!
Funny and all, but change of address only works for First Class mail. And you'd be amazed at how little junk mail is 1st class.
Since the US post office is looking for ways to save/make money I offer this:
I would be interested in paying the US Post office to only deliver First Class mail and to automatically destroy all the other stuff.
Or how about this: They could hold auctions. If the junk mailer can outbid me they get to deliver the junk. If I outbid them, I don't see it. Either way the post office wins.
I like the beginning of your idea..
If they make $5/yr on the delivered junk mail that you receive, $6.00 should make sure you *don't* receive it.
The USPS can already quantify bulk mailings to your zipcode. It's a simple matter to pay for your address to be excluded.
It's still misdelivered. It's just not the fault of the Postal Service.

Live in an apartment complex where there is a lot of turnover. I have done so for years and every day or two I get two or more pieces of mail that, while addressed to the correct *address* (my apartment), are not for me, but for the tenant who lived here last year (or maybe last decade, to judge by the large number of names on the various pieces of mail).
We rented the family house to some friends while I lived out of town. This was 12 years ago or so now.
I still get 1-2 pieces of mail addressed to them per year. The address is still floating around some mailing lists (probably the purchased variety).
I get mail addressed to my father, my sister, and my brother, none of whom have never lived at my address. I haven't lived with any of them for 25 years. Someone is linking up names in a very scary, yet useless, way.

Well, that's not never been correct then, hasn't it not?
Move to a short term apartment.
I get mail for the previous 4 tenants. one of whom lived for in that location for 3 years. Junk mail people never update their databases.
fortunately I get 90% of my mail electronically. bills, etc are sent by email so when i move I don't have to update them immediately.
I bought my house almost 6 years ago. I still get mail for a woman who lived in my house before the woman I bought it from.
I have marked the mail as moved and still get 2 or 3 pieces a month for her. Just too annoy me further it is from religious and "Focus on the Family" groups.
The only thing that keeps me from completely snapping is knowing that such groups are wasting money each month to send mail that "Marilyn Brantford" will never read.
In a similar vein, I've started getting more and more threatening voicemail messages (since I rarely answer my landline) from various collection agencies looking for the previous holder of my phone number. Actually, yesterday it was the IRS with a reference number for her "case" - if they ever do track her down I'm guessing it won't be pretty.
My girlfriend made the mistake of answering one of those calls and basically had to hang up on the caller after they refused to believe her name wasn't "Sarah". In f

Don't forget 0-1. I've only had one wrong piece of mail in the last 4 years. So I get 0.25 pieces of wrong mail a year.
Not even junk mail?
About one a month. About 3/4 of that is for one of the next-door neighbors, which I attribute to envelopes sticking together. The rest is for "same house number, different [nearby] street" or "same street, different city zone" (eg, I'm on N 35th St but the address is for 35th Ave NE).
Re:Next-door neighbors (Score:5, Interesting)
I once got misdelivered mail that was destined for somewhere about 1,000 miles and about 5 states away. I had never considered that the envelopes stuck together, which might explain it, though they were not stuck together when I got them. I was very puzzled since there were no similarities in street name, address, city, state, zip code, etc...
On the flip side of this poll, I'm always impressed when the post office correctly delivers mis-addressed mail. I currently live in a large complex with several hundred units, and mailboxes spread throughout (about one group of mailboxes outside of every 4 units, and no labels with occupant names). Sometimes either we forget the unit number, or somebody's software chops it off when printing the address. Yet the mailman has figured out the correct unit and put it in my mailbox. Even when it's addressed to my wife's maiden name, and there are no other pieces of mail with that name.
The USPS isn't anywhere near perfect (I'm usually disappointed by their package redelivery in my area, for example), but there are many employees that take their jobs seriously and do a fantastic job - and to them, I say kudos. And I hope their enthusiasm about their jobs spreads to more employees...
Small towns are even more impressive. I can send stuff to my family members with nothing but a name, city, state, and zip and be confident it will get there. Granted, it's only a town of 1000 people, but I've always found it impressive the few times it's happened.
That's actually illegal. My grandmother used to be a postal employee in a VERY small town (~300 people) and she used to get in trouble for putting people's mail in their boxes if they had the wrong address on them. Apparently even if you know that John Smith lives at 101 Main St, and not 103 Main St, if the letter says 103, you gotta put it in 103.

Years ago, a friend of my tried an experiment. First he mailed a letter to me, properly addressed, and had me call when it arrived. Then he sent another letter with just my last name, street (no building or apartment number) and zip code. They both took the same time to get to me, and the same results were had with his other participants. Across town, same state, cross country, it didn't matter.
For all its faults, the USPS does (and has always done) an overall terrific job. And for pennies.

It's been years since I received an actual letter from anyone, and aside from my mother, an actual birthday card.
Who the hell would receive that much misdelivered mail? The poll options should be something like "once in a year", "once in 2 years", "once in 5 years"...
Potentially anyone who rents. On average, I receive about one or two misdelivered letters per day. That's right, per day. It's mostly what I would consider junk mail, though its addressed to specific people who used to live here not just "Current Resident". The worst, though, is the mail for an old lady who used to live here a few tenants back. I can guess at her age due to the frequency of AARP materials sent to her (to say nothing of her apparent reliance on snail mail). But in addition to this, there are
If it's got the correct address, then it's not exactly misdelivered, now, is it?
"Return to sender" isn't an informative thing to write on stuff that made it to the right address. What you want to write is "Not at this address". I've found that to be very effective.
I once had a case of ammunition delivered to my house by accident. I would have been tempted to keep it, but it was AR ammo (back before the gun/ammo craze when it wasnt too expensive) and I don't own an AR. So we took it and dropped it off at the house it was supposed to be delivered to.
The regular guy is off. Each house gets a separate divider in the bin. The postman makes one mistake, and each house on the street gets the mail of the house to the north of it. Why doesn't he check at each mailbox?
I received received some junk mail for my first wife who I divorced in 97 when I lived in Virginia. I'm not sure she even knows my Colorado address. I occasionally get a junk letter for my oldest daughter as well.
Otherwise I'll get 1 or 2 a year meant for a misread street or missed by a house or two house number.
And I still get occasional letters for the previous owners. I used to write on them "return to sender" but after a few years I stopped. Most of the post is advertising and brochures, so I now read them. Some are interesting since he was an electrical contractor.
Occasionally I get letters from collections agencies for random people who I have no idea if they ever lived in the house!
It doen't bother me though.
I really hate the collections stuff. I get them most often for the previous owner of my house who last lived there almost 9 years ago. I also get collection calls for him as well and the collection companies can't get it through their fucking head that he doesn't live there any more. Once you tell them you will be filing a civil suit against them if they ever call again the stop until they sell the note to some other company and they start calling all the time. Although the worst was a collections company t
The collections people don't send me letters. They just call me constantly. Of course, the calls are not for me. They are mostly for people I have never heard of. I am the second owner of our house, and I know that these people have never lived there. One lately has been calling for my sisters ex-boyfriend (stopped seeing him approximately 16 years ago). He has never even lived in this state, let alone in my house in this state.
They use illegal autodialers, and always leave messages on my machine telling m
hey use illegal autodialers, and always leave messages on my machine telling me that by listening to the message I acknowledge that I am some other person that I am not.
Never heard of a phone EULA or what ever you could call that. I haven't gotten that but I still regularly get phone calls for collectors who insist someone who does not live at my house owes them money. If one of them happens to call when I am at home asking for $SomeRandomPerson I have taken to telling that they died. I figure that if the collection company is so incompetent in tracking down the person that a little additional bad info won't hurt.
There are all kinds of reasons why someone might write "return to sender" on something. I've found it far more effective to write "not at this address" on mail that's come to the right address but the wrong person.
At home, I probably get 0-3 pieces of mail per year addressed to the person who used to live here. I'm not sure if that counts as misdelivered or not since it's addressed to my address. However, at work, I get an average of at least one a week addressed to one of the other businesses in our building. We're in Suite B, and it's like the mail carrier is just too damn lazy to open the mailbox for Suite A that's six inches away from ours. That doesn't include the mail sent to our address for prior tenants o
Misdelivered is not very well defined. Here are my stats:
1) Mail addressed to my next door neighbor (once or twice a year)
2) Mail addressed correctly but with a previous owner's name. (once or twice a month)
3) Actual misdelivered mail addressed to someone more than a block away (once or twice total in my lifetime)
#2 is obviously the most frequent but I don't necessarily consider that misdelivered as it arrived at
the correct house but not necessarily the correct person.
The Austrian mail, still a state-owned company, does a truly great job ( as, BTW, mail services in other alpine countries seem to do, too ) .
What should I answer if I receive about 0.5 items a year?
Common rounding rules state that 0.5 is rounded up to 1. I'm at a 1/3 misdelivered mails per year, so I rounded that down to zero.
We have a lovely old lady living on the top floor, Mrs. Lundqvist. On the 2nd floor, we have a younger couple, Mr. & Mrs. Lundqvist... as I help the old Mrs. Lundqvist with managing her personal finances, I quite often end up acting as a local postman delivering letters to the correct Lundqvist.
It got problematic a couple of years ago - the Lundqvists downstairs got into debt, and ended up with debt collectors coming around to serve collection orders, yet they consistently ended up banging on the wrong
Add one or two zeroes to the end of these counts.
Once we ordered to our local pastry shop a cake, and they delivered it to us on Sunday late morning. We opened the cake at the end of lunch, and to our suprise on the cake surface there was a big "happy birthday, Grandpa!". We called the shop to fix the wrong delivery, but they were closed till the next Monday, too late for the cake to survive...
I live at 1 X street, but I get mail for 2 X street all the time. Seems whoever bundles the mail can't read some days
A friend once received a letter from his grandfather, mailed from a nursing home in another state. It was addressed with only his first name, "The Donut Boy", and the city - no last name, no state, no zip. It was delivered to the donut shop we worked at. The USPS gets all sorts of things right, we just forget to talk about it...
Bill Bryson relates some other impressive efforts by the USPS in tracking down addresses. For example, this address:
which was correctly delivered to John Underhill, Andover Mass. (get it?)
And also a letter he received with this address:
Bill Bryson, author
lives somewhere in New Hampshire, America
Personal mail not so much, maybe 10-20 a year (which is still annoying as I have lived at my house for like 8 years now, but I am getting mail for two different people who haven't lived there in 10+ years)...
However I also through work send out a big mailing process to thousands of clients. It clearly states where to return the forms in the letter, which no one reads (which varies depending on where you live, which is why I can't just use that as the return address). A ton of clients simply return it to the
"Return to sender" only requires to strike your own address and write "return to sender" on the letter. Takes about ten seconds and no stamp is required.
In fact, I picked 1-10 and I wonder if I should have gone up a category. Mainly, I get things sent to the business he used to run at the house, though it's finally started to taper off recently. I suppose this technically would be misaddressed rather than misdelivered, but close enough.
Very little problem with receiving someone else's mail, so I voted 1-10. Closer to the 1 end of the scale.
But, a bigger problem is items mailed to me that never arrived.
Historically, that number has been zero. But in the last month, I have had three separate items that were sent but never showed up. Mailed about a week apart, from three different senders. Percentage-wise, three missing items is plenty, as my (junk-mail-adjusted) received mail volume probably only amounts to about 10 items per month.
A neighbor down the street is apparently being wed because we get their wedding RSVPs. The RSVP postcards are in a fancy script and the Post Office routinely misinterprets a "1" for a "4". This has definitely made this year's count spike.

Or the printer misprinted the 1 with a 4. Or the script designer did a bad job.
Apartment complexes suck about that.
But, for the previous residents of my house. They must have been some interesting characters. Lots of collections stuff continued to arrive and some total information awareness database finally associated my home phone number with the address as well, so I was getting upwards of 5 calls a day from collections agencies for them. And, they were complete dicks when I'd tell them they had the wrong phone number and address. At one point, my CELL phone number started getting calls for them, but that only hap
My father passed away three years ago. Apparently he had been donating money to various Republican causes (why I have no idea, he was a Federal employee all his life and was living on a generous Federal pension).
Well these guys apparently don't check the dead person list. Ever. Since I was executor of his estate I got ALL of the Republican mail. I'd write on it stuff like 'return to sender, addressee deceased'. Made no difference.
I'm more or less an independent. But now I cringe every time I get Republican
I get 3-4 pieces of mail per week addressed to
(but the number and street etc are correct)
We have never had any 'resident's living here.
My Father-in-law is now a resident at the veterans home.
(I work at a long term elderly care facility that has about 100 residents)
Programmers should know better, most of what is discussed in this thread is 'mis-addressed' not 'mis-delivered', as far as I'm concerned mis-delivered is when something gets delivered to an address that is not on the post.
Post going to the address written on it = correctly delivered.
Misdelivered mail has led to two at least somewhat humorous, and oddly related, incidents in my life.
Back in college I subscribed to several IEEE journals. The journals were shipped wrapped in a plain brown wrapper. On one occasion a journal was misdelivered to another college student a few apartments down. The next day he hand delivered it to my apartment, with the wrapper missing, and the comment "That was so not what I thought it would be, dude." You see, adult magazines were usually wrapped in the s

No injuries were reported Friday morning after two vehicles collided along Highway 7 near Viper.
According to a witness at the scene, the collision happened when a gray Dodge Dakota veered into the path of an oncoming cement truck traveling south toward Cornettsville. The two vehicles collided, with the driver of the cement truck losing control before the truck ended up in a roadside ditch, overturned on it side.
The Dodge pickup sustained damage to the front left of the vehicle, and came to rest next to a guardrail about 100 feet away. Police at the scene said no injuries were sustained to either driver, and there were no other vehicles involved.
The road is currently open to one lane of traffic, and drivers in the area are urged to use caution while crews work to remove the vehicles from the roadway.

A Great Place to Vacation -- and teaching pays the bills
By Susanne Eineigel
Last year I taught English in Valencia, Spain's third-largest city and capital of the region. Foreign tourists don't overrun the city, as they do much of Spain, and the foreign community is smaller than in Madrid or Barcelona. This makes it easier to meet locals.
Moreover, the city itself is an appealing and inexpensive place to live, with a pleasant historic center and numerous art museums. The waterfront esplanade, lined with restaurants and bars, where on summer weekends the dancing goes on until sunrise, is only a 10-minute tramway ride from the center.
SUSANNE EINEIGEL started traveling seriously after high school and has worked throughout Europe. She lives in Vancouver, BC. This article originally appeared in the May/June 2001 issue of Transitions Abroad magazine.

NORFOLK -- 'A murderer is still out there,' said Mishelle McIntosh-Cooperwood. 'They guy that killed Dad is still out there.'
Surrounded by her sisters, McIntosh-Cooperwood told 13News this week, Norfolk Police Department told them the person charged with their father's killing was no longer a suspect in the murder.
In April, 2010, someone shot Henry McIntosh, Sr. at his Square Deal Barbershop on Church Street during a robbery.
In July 2012, police charged Dahson Iraldo with the murder. Officers picked him up on an unrelated warrant. After finding a gun and interviewing Iraldo, they thought they'd found McIntosh's killer.
'We all try to keep each other positive, but when you get a blow in the face like, 'This is not the person that did it. This is not the gun that killed your father,' I don't know what to think anymore,' McIntosh-Cooperwood said. 'My family's devastated.'
In October, the Commonwealth's Attorney's Office said it didn't have sufficient evidence to support the charges related to the robbery and murder and withdrew them. Police continued to investigate.
'I was always told that 'I think this is the guy' or 'We think this is the guy, and we're just doing everything we can to see if we can come up with more evidence to make sure that this is the person,'' said McIntosh's daughter Pennie. 'You get to this point now where you recognize it's not him, and you want to be sad, and the sadness is there, but you also know that you still got to keep going on, and you still got to believe that that person's gonna be found.'
'We hope and we pray that in our lifetime that there will be a conviction for the murder of our father,' Pam Livingston said. 'There is a lesson in patience, so you have to be patient. My father was a law-abiding citizen, and he would tell us to just let the law do their job.'
The McIntosh Family told 13News detectives indicated they have some substantial information or evidence upon which they are trying to build.
Iraldo, who was found guilty February 11 of Possession of a Firearm by a Convicted Felon and remains in jail, is supposed to be sentenced on the gun conviction April 18. He declined 13News' request for an interview.
'Now that we know that this guy is not the person that done it, we now need to focus on someone else being out there,' said McIntosh-Cooperwood. 'I'm asking that Norfolk police get on their giddy-up.'
'I would say, 'Please, continue looking. Please, whatever you have, get more of a package together before you even come to us now,'' Virgil McIntosh Deloatch said. 'I can't speak for my siblings, but my heart can't take too much more.'

Every morning as I walk my children to school I take a peek at the wonderful window display at One Girl Cookies. I love everything about this bakery down to the aqua hued walls, patterned wallpaper, cut crystal globe lights and vintage details which are all perfectly suited to my Brooklyn neighborhood. Blown up vintage family photos and a hand painted family tree adorn the walls of this carefully-curated shop.
As a designer, it is so wonderful to see so much care put into the overall look of the bakery down to the sepia-toned letterpress business cards. And let's not forget the cookies, cupcakes and their signature whoopie pies-simply divine. What makes this bakery the most inviting are the owners, Dawn Casale and Dave Crofton. From the moment, they opened their bakery down the block from my house their warm smiles have made One Girl Cookies a neighborhood favorite.
You may ask where I am going with this story (my husband asks that a lot) but I will get to my point in a moment. One day, as I passed by the shop I noticed their Thanksgiving pie display and in particular a whimsical sign sitting beside the pies. I had never seen signage like this at the store so I decided to inquire who had done it. It turns out it was the handy work of Felix van Dam & Winneke de Groot, two graphic designers from Holland, living in Brooklyn for a while.Read More

SEATTLE, June 5, 2006 (Ivanhoe Broadcast News) -- Meteorologists use it to track storms. Now doctors are using a similar version of Doppler radar to look at blood flow in the brain and help prevent stroke.
Airplanes are his hobby, but Wade Hilmo's been grounded from flying real ones since January. "I could feel kind of a tingling start at the back of my neck, and it came forward over the top of my head. Then as soon as it came over the top of my head, I got really dizzy," he says.
A ruptured aneurysm was bleeding in Hilmo's brain. "One of the things that strikes me is if I had been living 50 years ago, or 100 years ago, this probably would have been fatal."
But today's technology may have saved his life. After surgery, doctors used transcranial Doppler to see if wade was at risk of having a stroke, a common result of a ruptured aneurysm.
"Every day or twice a day we can go in and check the vessels with the ultrasound to see if they were going into spasm, which is the prelude to a possible stroke in these patients," David Newell, M.D., a neurosurgeon at the Swedish Medical Center in Seattle, tells Ivanhoe.
It's a slight variation of the same Doppler technology meteorologists use to watch a storm develop as it happens. It uses ultrasound to measure blood flow in the brain in real time. The technology can also be used to help treat migraines, and, unlike other methods, it's non-invasive.
Dr. Newell says, "It's based on the same Doppler principal where sound waves are sent toward an object and then received waves that are reflected off that object are received by the equipment."
For Hilmo, it meant peace of mind during a scary time. "I knew that it was a very serious thing," he says. He's back on his feet now -- fully recovered -- and hopes to soon be back in the air.
Transcranial Doppler can be used on anyone at risk for stroke or migraine. Researchers are also studying the technology to help dissolve blood clots in the brain. Another goal -- to develop a transcranial Doppler the size of a PDA that patients can wear 24 hours a day to detect warning signs of a stroke.

To the editor:
Our pastors have commented for years about the increased opposition to Christianity, and I have just figured out a possible reason. It's just like a line from an old gangster movie: "It's not personal; it's just business."
What businesses would be negatively impacted by Christianity?
The adult entertainment business for one; so called "adult" magazines and porn sites would go out of business. Bars and nightclubs where people go to "hook up" would shut down. The liquor industry would certainly pretty much close shop.
Christians get involved in church activities, Bible studies, music nights, outreaches and street preaching. The drug dealers would have no market and even a lot of "legal" prescription drugs would go unsold. X-, R- and PG-13- rated movies would go unseen and only a few G-rated movies would get an audience.
The police, FBI, DEA and the prisons would have a reduced burden. Doctors and hospitals would still be in business, but spiritual healing would augment those efforts a lot.
Psychiatrists would not have much to do; Christians get their minds right by praying and seeking God. Divorce lawyers would have to work other aspects of the legal profession. Our pastors teach us to have a platonic relationship for some time before marriage, insist the couple are pretty much debt free, are self sufficient, have a job and are committed to the Christian lifestyle.
Lawyers wouldn't do so well practicing criminal law, either. A real Christian tries very hard to "render onto Caesar, the things of Caesar," and obey the law, so the courts wouldn't be so busy.
Welfare agencies wouldn't have as much to do. Once someone gets "saved," confessing to God that they are a sinner, asking God to forgive their sins while forgiving everyone who ever sinned against them and invite Jesus Christ into their heart, they will go get a job — any job — to be self-sufficient. Sometimes they will start their own business. My wife and I have seen many people turn their lives around once they have been born again.
The world today wallows in sin — even the government promotes fornication by dictating that school children have access to birth control, mostly without parental permission or knowledge. They can even get an abortion, paid for by our tax dollars, without parental permission or knowledge.
This administration is proud to murder unborn children using our tax dollars doing so in the name of "freedom of choice." Our government is promoting homosexuality and applauding that as choice. Our so-called leaders promote lying, stealing and adultery. The television industry would suffer as well as many in our congregation have heeded the advice of our pastors and gotten rid of their TVs. In fact, our pastors don't have TVs at all.
Sexually transmitted diseases would one day be a nonissue since the best way to not get a sexually transmitted disease is to be in a monogamous relationship between a man and a woman — i.e., married. According to the Internet, sexually transmitted diseases are highest among homosexual men.
Christians are not perfect, but they forgive and are forgiven while making every effort to live by the laws of God and man.
