I seem to remember a couple years ago you posted a picture of your horse. It might be a good way to supplement your income!! I used to own a horse years ago, part Arab, part Percheron, but not real quick!!! I don't think poor old Skippy would have been able to carry the mail at a fast enough clip - see picture below!
Those were wild horses, there are lots of wild horses here.
"FedEx board member and former Waste Management CEO David Steiner was confirmed Friday by USPS board members as the new Postmaster General. ...

New PMG's challenge: "The U.S. Postal Service on Friday reported a net loss of $3.3 billion for the three months ending March 31 as the money-losing agency continues to hike stamp prices and look at ways to cut costs.
USPS said its controllable loss was $848 million, up from $317 million in the same quarter last year as mail volume continues to fall."
