The Post Office

Today the Post Office turns 221.  One must consider how many more birthdays it may have, before it is put out of it's misery.  The Post Office has of course, given us the term, "Going Postal," the forever stamp, the worst customer service on earth and a book by Bukowski.  It really isn't all that bad, think about life without it.  I remember at YMCA camp in the 5th grade, the Post Office was threatening to strike, we wondered how we would get our letters from home during our eight days of camp.  Lucky for us, the Post Office didn't strike and we all got letters mailed probably the same day we were all dropped off at camp.
