"I am guilty of a poor choice of words and optimistic
if I had imagined I would be forgiven"
Alexander Haig
GOOD MORNING POSTMAN FANS!
So,General Alexander Haig died yesterday.
Baby boomers will remember him as the White house chief
of staff for Richard Nixon, and later,
infamously, as secretary of state for Ronald Reagan.
He is notorious in his statement "I am in charge here..."
during a press conference shortly after Reagan
was shot. Many thought his statement was an
attempt to usurp power from the vice president,
who happened to be away from the White House at the time.
It was, instead, an attempt simply to assure the
nation that there was order in the government, even
if the president was in the hospital. History often
fails to see its leaders in the correct context.
It's easy to view them in today's context,
rather than the context of the time they lived.
So instead, we judge them according to the values we have
today. What with the cold war and a huge
nuclear weapons arsonal at the time,
a succesion of power in the presidency was
seen as much more important back then, than it is now.
He also is well known for his failed attempt
to run for president in 1988. He criticized
Ronald Reagan's administration for running up
a 2 trillion dollar national deficit.
(I'm thinkin maybe we might have been better off if
we had voted him in)

THE INVESTIGATIVE REPORTS BUREAU OF
THE POSTMAN'S CORNER
President Barack Obama was nominated for another
award this last week. Earlier in the year, Obama
made history as the first sitting US president to
receive the Nobel peace prize. Now, he has another
trophy to display in the White house trophy case...
We do hope you enjoy today's issue!
Cordially

A guy goes in to see a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist
tells him to lie down and asks him what the problem seems to be.
The guy says: "Doc, I think I'm gay."
Psychiatrist: "Why do you think that?"
The guy says: "My father is gay."
Psychiatrist: "Well, just because he's gay doesn't mean
that you're gay." The guy says: "Yeah, but my brother
and my cousins are gay."
Psychiatrist: "Really? How interesting! Well, tell me,
isn't their anyone at all in your family that sleeps with women?"
The guy says: "Oh, sure."
Psychiatrist: "Well, who?"
The guys says: "My sisters."

just got back from a sailing holiday where I remembered
this true tale you might be interested in.
A friend was looking for a second hand boat (a Laser) to
buy, when he hit on a great idea...
At his sailing club (the Queen Mary in London) there was a
large trailer park and a smaller yard where the management
put trailers and boats if the owner didn't pay their
membership for 12 months. The Queen Mary club is very big
and at the time there were three or four Lasers in this
yard that judging from their condition hadn't been
sailed for at least a year.My friend took down the numbers
of these boats and asked the club secretary for the owners
address so that he could make them an offer. The first
chap he rang said he wasn't interested in selling as he
was going to sail it himself "one of these days".
He then rang the second owner who lived about 100 miles away.
A woman answered the phone and confirmed that they did
still own the Laser. My friend explained that he had seen
it in the defaulters yard and that as it clearly hadn't
been sailed for a year - did she think her husband would
be interested in selling?"Oh no" she said "there must be
some mistake - come rain or shine my husband spends one
weekend a month in London sailing..."
I bet he had some explaining to do when he got home!

In a department store, a difficult customer and a very
patient clerk were having a hard time getting together.
Nothing the clerk provided was suitable.
Finally, the finicky shopper said in annoyance, "Can't you
find a smarter clerk to serve me?"
"No," said the saleswoman.
"The smarter clerk saw you coming and disappeared."

Unable to attend the funeral after his father died, a son
who lived far away called his brother and told him, "Do
something nice for Dad and send me the bill."
Later, he got a bill for $200.00, which he paid. The next
month, he got another bill for $200.00, which he also paid,
figuring it was some incidental expense.
Bills for $200.00 kept arriving every month, and finally
the man called his brother again to find out what was going on.
"Well," said the other brother, "you said to do something
nice for Dad. So I rented him a tuxedo."
______________
A young bride was scouring the aisles of the supermarket.
Up and down each aisle she went, then started over again.
The store manager noticed this and went over to her.
"Can I help you find something, miss?" he asked.
"It's Mrs.!", she said proudly, "I just got married."
"Congratulations, " said the manager. "What can I help
you find?" "Scratch," she replied.
"Scratch?" he asked, "Is that a new cleanser or something?"
"No silly," she replied brightly. "My husband told me
that his mother made everything from scratch,
so I need to find some!
