neither by snow nor rain nor heat....

This morning I needed to mail something so I decided to take a walk to the post office. Sure there is a mail box on every corner as well as in my lobby but it's a movie from Net Flix and I want to get my monies worth. Along the way I meet my neighbor and it became a journey, with a coffee break on the way. We stood outside the post office talking, when suddenly we heard the most alarmingly repetitive, slamming noise. An elderly man had double parked, to place a letter in the mail box, securing its journey by vigorously opening and closing the door. My neighbor thought I was a little overzealous about walking to the post office but we looked at each other and both declared his intensity for safe passage of his letter bordered on madness.
