Heres To The USPS

i went into town to mail the May APS circuit books back yesterday and the guy in front of me had a guitar case..i thought this should be interesting..you should have seen the clerk trying to weigh it..it was too big to weigh flat so the clerk is holding it upright on the scale by a couple of fingers to try and get an accurate rate...i think it went overseas because it cost 71 dollars and change for postage..they just slapped a piece of paper with an address on it and the postage and away it went !! I was going to ask the clerk who I see all the time if he checked the case for live ammo..but I decided not to !!

I was sending something out a few months ago, and the clerk asked me the usual, anything fragile, perishable or hazardous? I told him no, it's just plastic when the double meaning hit me. He just grinned.
