Ever since I could remember, neither rain, sleet or snow ever stopped the Mail Delivery. Most everyone had their own jingle for the postman or post woman. A much admired person, in the neighborhood.

Planning ahead to reduce future mail crisis the Subcommittee Chairman, Stephen Lynch _D_ Mass Stated, "The Postal Service faces budget shortfalls. There are many options to think about to restore financial stability without cutting service to a 5 day work week." Funding business capital helps to boost the economy. The Post Master General will not receive any bonus raise this year under the current recession climate. Without congressional intervention, USPS will run out of money this year. For this reason, the Mail Delivery System has called Congress for help.
