Should a 2 timer get no more mail on Saturdays?

Mail on Monday-Friday only?

Will this be the push to move more of us online to pay bills and communicate?

U.S. Postal Service  says that they are $10 billion in debt and they wanna cut back on delivery services. Well, they’ve said this before from what I hear. Two years ago they talked this talk and said they would  lose $6 billion in 2009. It’s actual losses for 2009 were (only) $3.8 billion.  If the USPS were to cut Saturday service, and they seem to be pretty lucky in getting their way,  they say they will save    $3.5 billion a year.  A billion here…a billion there…heck, it won’t be too long till it costs $1 to send grandma a birthday card.

Do Ya think the USPS is obsolete? Whining?

What do you think about no Saturday service?

I’m thinking that my Saturday service is kinda lame anyway…

Thursday goodies….
