I think the postman is the answer.Sometimes I'm waiting for hours till he comes.Because he's the middleman between collectors around the world

That is a good answer. I know that my dogs do not like the postal carrier, or the garbage men, or the utility people. LOL

I would agree with you Nash. And he or she doesn't even ask for money; they just hand them over free of charge. Unlike dogs, I really like the postman.

When I was a kid, my father explained the USPS to me by telling me that for a dime, a man would come to my house, pick up a letter, take it anywhere in the country, and hand it to the addressee.

For a year or two, I thought it was the same man

Londonbus -- I'm glad you appreciated my Father's humor. He's 74 now and still as wry as ever. I got my sense of humor from him.

Londonbus!!
There were not post men in war zones.The srilankan Army did it.Because there were so many deadly traps and bombs buried by terrorists.
I think our post office have around 10 postmen and they have different areas to deliver their mails.
