Junk Mail

I think that a lot of people probably do this. All of us still get quite a bit of junk mail and just toss it in the trash. As for myself, I open it up, remove any part that has my name on it and stuff the remainder inside their post-paid envelope, which will go back to them. Of course, they have to pay the postage on them.

Just finished doing about 15 of these and wll toss these in the mail box today. Been doing this for a couple years. With mail volumes dropping, the postal service needs more business anyway.

If you have any of those small red bricks or pieces of wood you want to get rid of, just tape one of these postage-paid envelopes on top of them and bring them down to your post office. I do believe that they will take it. However, since you are going to the window, they might ask you to put your return address on the mail. I think that if anything is over 1 pound, you have to go to the window. Otherwise, just drop it inside a mailbox.

McCain Closing in

There are reports that the two candidates are running neck and neck (44 pct/43 pct) in one of the major polls. Other polls have bombar leading by 3 to 14 points, It appears as though McCain was look upon favorably in this last poll and people might be realizing what a farce the other candidate is

Pzlin is right. When the other candidate travels around the country, he continually changes his viewpoints to satisfy the wishes of the people he is speaking to. For example, while he was in Philadelphia, he favored the Phillies; when he was in Tampa Bay, he favored the Rays.

I guess that he's picking up strength from the older whites. College and younger 'adults' favor Obama. Asians and other minorities are siding with Obama also. In many of these polls, whites, etc., say that the are for Obama because they don't want to be called 'racist' and that is exactly what happens. They make racial issues out of this stuff. I am sure that you can account for a swing of 2-5 percent difference this will actually make come election time.

I really try not to delve into political issues, but I will not lie. I am for the Republicans and McCain. You had better take a close look at what Obama is proposing and just don't vote because you want changes. The changes that you will see, you will not like.

This blog is about shows, festivals, etc., and I try to sway from things that are inappropriate for this blog. However, this is MY blog and I am entitled to put in anything I so desire. Thank you very much and let's have a fair election. Damm..... if McCain wins, don't you think that the Obama crowd is going to accuse everybody of racism and claim that the election was fixed. Isn't it a shame that people act that way? We have all seen this behavior in the past.
