Err...Thank You USPS!...

"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds."

Lately it seems as if the USPS (United States Postal Service) has been much in the news pondering its own survival from the days of the "pony express" to present.  They're saying that like everyone else, they're feeling the unpleasant effects of the economy  and the uncertainty of  how to survive.  So they're not sure if they will continue to be available to "deliver" mail to every capable mail-receiving resident  FREE of charge.  I sure hope so because I'm pretty sure they serve a very useful though unappreciated part in my life.
