Well, shoot... didn't even think of that.
Yes -- the whole strip was on the front.
Well darn...

No need -- the front was fine :)
I figure it got caught on a roller or something... it was sheered up on the
back side, but the front was fine

that's just weird...
though I had similar things going on with one postal worker doing the mail
here.
She was always putting the mail for 523 into my box (532)
turned out it's sorted at the post office, and the carrier just drops it in
the box -- so she had no idea she was giving me the wrong stuff.
(don't they look? No time I guess...)
but still... I think I'd question "why 2 Martha Stewart Living to the same
place?"
