An optimist stays up until midnight to see the new year in.
A pessimist stays up to make sure the old year leaves.

GOOD MORNING POSTMAN FANS!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
In my last email of 2012, I stated that
I would not use the Internet until a
year has passed. Well, guess what? 2012
is gone. 2013 is here. its been a year!
So, here I am, again! :) I received a lot
of email well wishers who stated how they were
"going to miss me". And if you were one of
them, I felt badly about my little shtick.
(not, lol )
I actually stayed awake until midnight this
year with the war dept. Our celebration of the new year
was probably a little quieter than most of you.
It consisted of watching an old movie on the
couch and sharing a bowl of popcorn with her
and the dog. It is unknown who got more popcorn,
me, or the dog. The so called "magic moment"
was a bit unnerving this year. Our governor relaxed the
fireworks laws earlier this year in this state, so the
neighbors' fireworks, while awesome, seemed a little
more threatening. Notably, July 4th saw a much larger
number of fires in the city. This particular law allows
a much bigger "bang" and also it allows the fireworks
to fly, previously illegal in our state. Altho I like
our governor for the most part, I have to wonder if this
law was such a good idea. But, you know what was more
scary? We live in a neighborhood that would be
politically correct to refer to as an "urban" neighborhood.
Many of the denizens of our local hood like to celebrate
New Years by shooting off their guns. I find this all
to be a bit un nerving. Turk the dog aka Carlos the rat
responded by running to my chair and cowering underneath it.
I had not the heart to put him in the cage for the
night, so I allowed him to snooze away the "moment"
curled up with me . With that, we missed the
craziness of the holiday and look forward to another
year! I hope 2013 is a good one for you, and
wish you and your family much health and etc!
We do hope you enjoy today's issue!
Cordially
Martin aka the postman

As in many homes on New Year's Day, my wife and I faced the annual
conflict of which was more important - the football games on
television, or the dinner itself. To keep peace, I ate dinner with the
rest of the family, and even lingered for some pleasant after-dinner
conversation before retiring to the family room to turn on the game.
Several minutes later, my wife came downstairs and graciously even
bought a cold drink for me. She smiled, kissed me on the cheek and
asked what the score was. I told her it was the end of the third
quarter and that the score was still nothing to nothing.
"See?" she said, continuing to smile, "You didn't miss a thing."

When I thought about the evils of drinking in the New Year, I gave up thinking
You know it's time for a New Year's resolution to lose weight when you step
on a talking scale and it says, "One at a time, please!"
A man asks his friend for a cigarette. His friend says, "I think
you made a New Year resolution to quit smoking." The man says,
" I am in the process of quitting. Right now, I am in the middle of
phase one." "What's phase one?" "I've quit buying."

This woman walks into a tattoo parlor and asks for a tattoo of a
christmas tree on her right inner thigh and a cocktail drink on her left
inner thigh. The tatoo artist say thats an unusual request. "Why do you
want two tattoos there?" So she says "Because my husband needs to eat
between Christmas and New Year's Day."
