Oh my god! The us postal disservice loses at least
one article of mine every year. They even lost the
Bugs Bunny stamps I sent to my mom a few years
ago.

One day about three years ago I was driving south
on 101 towards SFO behind a postal truck with no
license plate. I saw mail falling out of the back of the
truck. So I drove around it to see if it had a front plate.
It didn't. Maybe somebody had just stolen a full truck
load of mail...

You can pay 37 cents for 98% reliable service. Or you
can pay $10+ for 99% reliable service.
