      I spent the other night making 200 xmas cookies. I always just give out cookies to the mailman and my ups and fed ex guys. They actually expect them now! lol.

        huh? you buy your mailman a gift?

        Don't they have the day off?
        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

            ? I do not understand that ... not that I am suppose to.


            My delivery person is always different, as well over paid, so I expect them to give me something, aside from bills and physical spam.

                Not to mention the days they decide to miss our street entirely.

                No mail for 2-3 days and a TON of it the next day? Yeah right.

                      I don't know about the rest of the country, but here in NY, if you don't give your mailman a cash gift, watch out; important looking parcels seem to disappear.

                            haha I've never heard of giving the mail delivery person a gift for xmas. I would think just a card would do.

                              we used to give the garbage men all the left over bottles of liquor from the xmas party... but the mailman we've never tipped him.

                                you put a 20.00 bill inside a xmas card and give it to him/her.
                                make sure your name and address are on the card too...
                                your mail service will improve....
                                i use Vacares...so should you

                                  That's nice of you Shemp.

                                  I just don't think my mailman could give two shits that when he goes on strike, my affiliate cheques are gonna sit there dormant. He's only concerned about himself making more money.

                                  He deserves a bonus for that?

                                  The day he goes into the postal outlet, and brings me my cheques even though he's on strike, just because it's a nice gesture, I'll give him a Christmas bonus as a nice gesture.

                                        Probably not, but I DO expect to have my mail delivered EVERY day.

                                        That is what they're being paid for.

                                                Ah, this isn't about being cheap Shemp.

                                                We give both of our babysitters $100 and our papergirl $50.00.

                                                All of them work FOR me, not in spite of me.

                                                  That is what they're being paid for.
                                                  well they are not paid if they are on strike.

                                                    I agree a blowjob is all he really needs. After all he's banging every married woman on the block so a change might be good.

                                                          I used to do contract deliveries for the post office and know for a FACT that not all mail is delivered every day.

                                                          If you walk by the individual carriers mail sorters, you can see all the mail they missed. Streets at a time.

                                                          Knowing some of them, I can say, that SOME of them are excellent and rarely if ever have a noticeable amount of undelivered mail.

                                                          SOME however, miss streets on a daily basis.

                                                          When you don't get mail for 2,3 or 4 days in a row, and the next day, you get a ton...that's a clue.

                                                          Not just one time. That could certainly happen. I mean on a semi-regular basis.

                                                                      How about I get the pussy some fucking balls for Xmas.

                                                                      The dog's owners put up a fence so now it's cool, but damn maybe I should go easy because those Jack Russels are known to be terrors!
