THE POSTMAN'S CORNER
Accipere quam facere praestat injuriam -
It is better to suffer an injustice than to do an injustice
GOOD MORNING POSTMAN FANS!
It's official. GM, the one time leader of the auto industry,
filed bankruptcy yesterday.If you live in Michigan, you probably
look at the news with doom and gloom. If you live in Florida,
you are probably thinking, "So what?". But maybe you didn't
see the connection. You're down there thinking, this really does
not matter to me. But lets say you get that 401k statement in the
mail for the quarter, and you wonder why your retirement fund went
so far south. You didn't think about the fact that the mutual fund
it was tied to, owned a huge chunk of GM stock, so now, your portfolio
suffers also. But its a little worse for your counter part in Michigan.
He does not have a job any more, because GM closed the factory
he once worked in, so he defaulted on his mortgage.
Now, the stock your 401k company had in the mortgage industry suddenly
takes a plunge. and your portfolio looks worse and worse. And the snow
ball grows and grows. In the meantime,you notice that the bank
which manages your 401k has laid off a lot of its workforce because
they are finding it difficult to make payroll. Pretty soon, you see
that that pizza place across the street? Yah that's the one where a lot
of the bank people used to go for lunch. It couldn't pay the rent last
month because there were not as many bank employees eating lunch over there.
They closed up. Now its an empty store front.
They also call it a recession.
I don't know why Uncle Sam owns GM now.
I had heard all that stuff was supposed to
be a loan, not a purchase. So I could be a little confused here. But
one thing I know, the US tax payer is the new proud majority owner of GM,
and today, it was taken off the Dow. Ford, on the other hand, which had
no government bailout money, by comparison? their stock closed up yesterday
by 38 cents. Go figger.
We do hope you enjoy today's issue!
Cordially
Martin aka the postman

The middle-aged woman sought help from her
doctor. "All my husband does is complain that I
never want to have sex with him. And he's right
too. I have no desire at all."
The doctor gave her a prescription and told her
to return for a visit in two weeks.
After the two weeks were up, she bounced smiling
into his office. "Those pills were great Doc, I'm doing
it 8 to 10 times a day now."
"That's wonderful." said the doctor, "What does you
husband say now?"
"How should I know?" she replied. "I haven't been
home yet."

HE: Can I buy you a drink?
SHE: Actually I'd rather have the money.
HE: I'm a photographer. I've been looking for a face like yours.
SHE: I'm a plastic surgeon. I've been looking for a face like yours.
HE: Hi. Didn't we go on a date once? Or was it twice?
SHE: Must've been once. I never make the same mistake twice.
HE: How did you get to be so beautiful?
SHE: I must've been given your share.
HE: Will you go out with me this Saturday?
SHE: Sorry. I'm having a headache this weekend.

A man wakes up in hospital after a harrowing operation.
The surgeon is standing beside him in the bed.
He looks up at the surgeon - full of dread.
Our man says timidly "Well, how did the operation go?".
To which the surgeon replies "Well,
I've got some good news and some bad news".
"What's the good news?"
"We managed to save your testicles"
Our man breathes a big sigh of relief.
"What's the bad news?"
"They're under your pillow".

After watching a young maternity ward patient earnestly thumb
through the telephone directory for several minutes, a hospital
orderly finally asked if he could be of some help.
"No thanks," the young mother said. "I am just looking for a
name for my baby." "But the hospital supplies a booklet that lists
every first name and its meaning," said the orderly.
"That will not help," the mother said. "My baby already has a first name."
