For less than half a buck they will deliver a letter from Gran Jeno, Texas (pop 372) to Pakala Village, Hawaii (pop 514). They will do it correctly about a million times before making an error. As Americans we should be damn proud of our postal system, it is the envy of most of the world.

Hooch seems to drunk to continue the thread lol What is your favorite gadget?

I tossed a priority mail envelope in the package slot at my local post office. Problem is I forgot to address the envelope. No return address, no ''to'' address, nothing. And nothing on the inside either. I called the next day and an employee waded through all priority mail envelopes until he found it. He correctly addressed the envelope for me and sent it on it's way. I have way more positive stories of the USPS than negative.

I’m getting smaller and smaller and smaller And I have nothing to say It’s all been taken away I just behave and obey What is your favorite memory of 2011?

Easy off season game that may kill the alphabetical thread . . . The rules are easy, answer a question with lyrics from a song, then ask a question. What are your New Years plans?

I am glad to see my money is being spent. And by my money, I mean the $5 i sent to see how much stuff I get from each campaign.

Universally people enjoy cake and candy at a Christmas party. And yes, here I can call it a Christmas party.

Pretty easy day. Watching movies at school. Pirates of the Caribean currently.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Dec 20, 2011 -> 11:12 AM) I don't think I remember the harbor master, but that sounds awesome. The roast scene is as suspenseful as it gets. He had on a stupid cap and smoked a pipe. He just kind of stood there smiling as everyone was trying to get their boats out of the harbor for shark fishing.

I believe he picks whatever side will get him the most attention. Remember his Rose column? Just liking Rose wasn't enough, he had to take a swipe at Jordan.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Dec 19, 2011 -> 10:45 AM) That scene is definitely up there. I'd be lying if I said it didn't get me jumping after many viewings. The other part I love is the famous "you're gonna need a bigger boat" scene because I'm sitting there in anticipation waiting for the shark to pop up, but I can never seem to get the timing exactly right. In the making of video there is a scene I really wish they could have made. Remember when the Harbor Master walks out of his office late at night? Well he was suppose to head over to the water to rinse his coffee cup. As he is bending over you see sailboats one at a time start rocking as the shark gets closer and closer. Then, well no more harbor master. But, they did the two guys fishing with the roast instead, which is classic. Swim Charlie, swim!

Do you think we would love Cowley if he was anti-Cubs?

Notable on this day, North Korea goes from one kook to another.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Dec 18, 2011 -> 06:38 PM) For my money, still the scariest movie ever made. Every once in a while I get surprised. Somehow I had forgotten the scene when they are diving on the scuttled boat and the head pops out the hold. I screamed like the little girl I am.

FBI?

Christmas cards, candy, cheer, carols, caroling, but no cocaine

Almost Christmas

SS when Cowley is gone someone else will take his place. The good versus evil is good for business. Check out the villains thread, to have heroes we need villains.

Y?

Blaze, why is Chicago considered a Cub's town? The more people are talking about the Sox, the easier Brook Broyer's job is. Cowley says something negative and Sox fans circle the wagons like pioneers. The talk helps sell tickets and keeps the team from being forgotten under all the Bears, Bulls, and Hawk talk.
