what can stop a mailman?

This is quite possibly the best piece of news I've read in a long time (oh yeah... since last Tuesday... but nevertheless). The Post Office is considering cutting delivery days to five.

Of course! Do I really care if my mailbox becomes junk-mail-free on Tuesdays? Of course not. I would even wait an extra day for the Wii Fit that we should be getting any time now. Why such uncharacteristic patience? Well, think for a second how much gas it takes for the mailman to visit every single house almost every day. It's mind-boggling.
