    No offense, but this should absolutely, positively, unequivocally be in the Main section. The story, animation, and style of it so brilliantly stay within the UPS brand that it deserves Main-Status!

      if you read the quickie note, it says “stay tuned”, meaning, “stay tuned”

      no offense taken. we know it’s good, but thanks for the feedback
