Well.....I was at the post office today (putting in for that Roadtrip hold my mail, I shall return request) and I decided I needed a few shipping tubes for the trip. Being me...I was just standing there at the checkout..(btw..what do you call the counter at the post office besides the gloryland at the end of a long line?) and looking at the tubes, turning them this way and that, I said..well this one is too small for the cat, but a skinny gerbil or perhaps a hamster might fair well in here...and the post office guy just perked up and responded....Now, that would be fun.

(is this real life experience worthy of Reader's Digest?)
