Just finished reading this, a real gasser. I can't believe the PO would deliver some of this stuff.

I didn't know stuff had to be wrapped. I worked at a company and a worker went to Hawaii on a long vacation and sent us a large smooth coconut with stamps and address attached and a postcard-like note on part of the coconut.

You mean they actually expect us to box this stuff up before we ship it? When did they start that?

What a fascinating study!

I wonder if they are doing a phase two at a local college near me. There have been a lot of strange items in line at my post office this week.

I've printed it out and plan to give it to my posties in the morning. It should make their day. Thanks!
