To Stamp Or To Stamp Out. That Is The Question.

Between E Mail, Facebook, Twitter, fax machines, chat rooms, cell phones, text messages, and the ability to pay bills on line, people are discovering (big surprise) that they really don’t need to use the post office anymore. I think the only remaining usage comes from grandma sending out her Christmas cookies each year and good luck teaching grandma that even she could use Fed Ex instead.

Be that as it may, the day the post office or any other government agency is shut down, start strapping on your skates, because it will mean hell had frozen over.

And so, what is the post office doing instead? They are threatening to cut back on their services. Did I miss something? Exactly what has changed? Cheers, everybody. Maybe the government will admit we need no more mail carriers and instead use that stimulus package (excuse me, “Jobs Bill”) to start funding stamp collections.
