It all depends on your local carrier.  I don't think anything is likely
to get lost between post offices with the USPS (though it COULD happen),
but the last leg to the destination seems to depend on the local
carrier.  I get mail for my neighbors, or the guy one street over who
has the same house number, a LOT more often than seems reasonable.  And

Lots of stuff used to disappear in the Chicago SCF.  I used to use 
alternates if the parcel was likely to go through chicago.  It seems 
to have been cleaned up many years ago.  no problems recently.

[MBZ] OT Obama stickers for the missus

2008-11-20 Thread Hendrik Fay
Apparently, for reasons unknown to me, the missus is after some Obama 
stickers, presumably to put on the cars or on the fridge but what the 
missus wants the missus gets. So I was wondering if anyone has any left 
over from the election they could post out to me in Oztralia. I guess 
seeing there is a credit crunch and you lot are not as wealthy as you 
used to be, I'll have to send payment for postage, I assume they where 
handing these things out gratis during the election.
