GOOD AFTERNOON POSTMAN FANS!
Hard to believe how times change, eh? I was
thinking back, 30 plus years ago. Back then I
was just finishing high school and looking for
my first job. Well, at least my first job that
was not working on the farm. I decided that pumping
gas down at the Texaco gas station was not gonna be a
major career gig for me. So, like many of my
fellow graduating classmates back then, I went
on over and applied for a job at the local meat
packing plant, aka slaughtering house. Wasn't
much to do back home (Iowa) for work, unless you were
a rich farmer's kid. The meat packing plant
was about the only choice. I was real happy when
I got hired in at the princely sum of a buck forty
five an hour, because the gas station only paid
minimum wage at a dollar thirty five. Later,
I joined the union. I thought I had the world
by the tail when I joined the meatpackers union and
started earning 2 bux an hour. I stood in blood
all night with a .22, but I didn't care.
(It was about that same time I'd met
the war department and we were happy.) Later on,
the animal rights activities made us stop using
rifles and start using an electric knife. Although
no one ever epxlained how a knife was more
humane than shooting them in the head. Then McDonalds,
our biggest customer, decided to start buying beef
from Brazil. It was not long before the plant shut
down. It was the 70s, the era of the savings and
loan fiasco, A lot of people lost their
jobs. The local savings and loan went belly up, too.
Nobody had ever heard of a government bailout.
So we were left to our own devices. And survived.
We ended up moving here to beautiful west michigan
for one reason only. Back home was Iowa, and the
night I got the pink slip and went home and asked
her what we were going to do, she said,
"They have trees in Michigan."
The rest they say, is history.
And you know what? we did it all without
a government bailout
We do hope you enjoy today's issue
Cordially
Martin aka the postman

"Shhaaayyy, buddy, what's a 'Breathalyzer'?" asked one drunk
to his friend at the next barstool.
"Well, I'd have to say it's a bag that tells you when you've drunk
way too much," answered the equally wasted gent.
"Ah hell, whaddya know? I've been married to one of those for
years and years now!"

Summer was over and the teacher was asking the class about their vacations.
She turned to little Johnny and asked what he did over the Summer.
"We visited my grandmother in Minneapolis, Minnesota," he said.
"That sounds like an excellent vocabulary word," the teacher said,
"Can you tell the class how you spell that?"
Little Johnny thought about it and said,
"Come to think of it, she lives in Ohio.".

A wealthy man decided to go on a safari in Africa. He took his
faithful pet dog along for company. One day the dog started chasing
butterflies and before long he discovered that he was lost.
Wandering about he noticed a leopard heading rapidly in his
direction with the obvious intention of having lunch.
The dog thought, "Boyo, I'm in deep doo doo now."
(He was an Irish setter).... Then he noticed some bones on the
ground close by, and immediately settled down to chew on the
bones with his back to the approaching cat.
Just as the leopard was about to leap, the dog exclaimed loudly,
"Man, that was one delicious leopard. I wonder if there are any
more around here?" Hearing this the leopard halted his attack
in mid stride, as a look of terror came over him, and slinked
away into the trees. "Whew," thought the leopard. "That was close.
That dog nearly had me."
Meanwhile, a monkey who had been watching the whole scene from a
nearby tree, figured he could put this knowledge to good use and
trade it for protection from the leopard. So, off he went. But the
dog saw him heading after the leopard with great speed, and figured
that something must be up. The monkey soon caught up with the leopard,
spilled the beans and struck a deal for himself with the leopard.
The leopard is furious at being made a fool of and said, "Here monkey,
hop on my back and see what's going to happen to that conniving canine."
Now the dog saw the leopard coming with the monkey on his back, and thought,
"What am I going to do now?" But instead of running, the dog sat down
with his back to his attackers pretending he hadn't seen them yet.
Just when they got close enough to hear, the dog said, "Where's that
monkey? I can never trust him. I sent him off half an hour ago to bring
me another leopard, and he's still not back!!"

The teacher once asked the class to make a
sentence with the phrase, 'pistol, too.'
Little Jimmy raised his hand,
and after being recognized, said:
The Lone Ranger tamed the wild west
with his faithful Indian companion, Tonto
and his pistol too."
Very good, Jimmy." says the teacher.
Little Johnnie raised his hand,
and after being called on said:
Down at our house we make homebrew,
drink 'til twelve and p*ss till two."

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at the saloon for a drink.
Unfortunately, the locals always had the habit of picking on strangers,
which he was. When he finished his drink, He found his horse had been stolen.
He went back into the bar, handily flipped his gun into the air, caught it
above his head without even looking and fired a shot into the ceiling.
"Which one of you sidewinders stole my horse?!" he yelled with surprising forcefulness.
No one answered. "Alright, I'm gonna have another beer, and if my horse ain't
back outside by the time I finish, I'm gonna do what I dun in Texas! And I
don't like to have to do what I dun in Texas!"
Some of the locals shifted restlessly. The man, true to his word,
had another beer, walked outside, and his horse had been returned to the post.
He saddled up and started to ride out of town. The bar- tender wandered
out of the bar and asked, "Say pardner, before you go...what happened in Texas?"
The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home."
