Seeking help from the DMF braintrust:
I received a Russian newspaper today in the mail ("V Novom Svete" -- you can google it). I am not Russian. None of my ancestors were Russian. I did not order the paper. I've never ordered anything Russian, any newspaper, or anything that I can logically connect with it. I figured it was just standard junk mail.
But here's the thing: the paper was in plastic wrap and had my name (correctly spelled) and address on it. Not "Resident" or something like that. So I google the return address: 3753 East County Line, Rigby, Idaho, 83442. What comes up? Klim headquarters (see here (https://www.google.com/search?q=3753+East+County+Line%2C+Rigby%2C+Idaho%2C+83442&oq=3753+East+County+Line%2C+Rigby%2C+Idaho%2C+83442&aqs=chrome..69i57.1103j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)).
Now, while I never ordered anything directly from Klim I did buy a Klim jacket from Revzilla, and I'm pretty sure they drop ship some of their merchandise (or rather, the manufacturer drop ships). Revzilla is headquartered in Philadelphia (see here (http://www.revzilla.com/philadelphia-gear-boutique)). V Novom Svete is headquartered in NYC (see here (http://www.vnovomsvete.com/about/)).
So why is Klim sending me newspapers of a Russian media company based in NY?
Also, if I meet this guy at a bar this week, I'm packing my stuff and skipping town immediately.

Uh, yeah. In fact, perhaps having a 'go-bag'
right now isn't a bad idea...
Call Klim and ask them?
