Irony of The Day Number One: Shipping

  I am a huge fan of the Tom Hanks movie Cast Away. Ever since I saw it in English class in 9th grade, I fell in love with it. Everybody knows about Wilson the Volleyball. He was Tom Hanks' costar in Cast Away. So Wilson Sporting Goods made a Wilson the Volleyball replica with the bloody face handprint on it.
  I've always wanted a Wilson of my own so I decided to buy one from Amazon. Here's the ironic part, In the movie Cast Away, Wilson was shipped through FedEx. However, Amazon shipped my Wilson through UPS. Go figure that one. Anyway my Wilson should arrive at my door on Monday. So I'll be having a volleyball to talk to if I ever get stranded on an island in the South Pacific
