James Brown the dynamic, pompadoured "Godfather of Soul," whose rasping vocals and revolutionary rhythms made him a giant of R&B and an inspiration for rap, funk and disco, died early this Christmas morning. He was 73.

Of course there are going to be some delays this week. It never fails that someone will leave a negative feedback, it happens to me every year at this time. I amazed when I see people with 100% feedback. I mean I seriously go out of my way to make people happy and still at random someone will drop a bomb... and a few times it's been because they claimede they didn't get their package after 5 days (wow long wait huh) and they leave the negative and then the next day write me saying "sorry I just got it today". And then leave me stranded with the nasty negative. I have a love/hate relationship with ebay. I could rant about it all day long, but I wont today. It's Christmas, Happy Holidays to all.
