I just got back from the post office, where I finally mailed my DVDs
that I had intended to mail yesterday. I had to stand in line for 40
minutes in a small post office where the normal wait is never more than
ten minutes. This all because the post office was closed yesterday,
after a holiday weekend, for the former president's funeral.

It was fortunate that I went to the post office early in the day. By
the time I left, the line behind me was so long that it went out the
door of the post office and out onto the street. And this was at 10:30
AM. Wait until noon time when the traffic normally gets heavy. By then,
the line will probably be going all the way down the street and onto
the next block.

Let it always be remembered that Gerald R. Ford was such a weak
president that even in death he managed to foul up the nation's
economy.
