Haha! This is a humorous piece. When I first received the blue ink handwritten envelope, I knew it was an ad, but I thought someone had a really nice handwriting. When I compared my next blue ink envelope, it was the same writing. I then realized it was a computer font. I wish these companies would send me the money the spend instead of sending the junk mail.

I always enjoy your introductions ( and this time I am sure you found the picture of Elvia first!! A brilliant marketing strategy. Or hook!) it seems like mail is the same all over the world. We also get junk mail advertising stuff that will last for the next forty or fifty years. Really? How will I know?! Well done.

    Wendy, thank you. Honestly, I was not looking for Elvis, but when I saw it, you were right it is a nice hook. Terry.

Although Elvis Is more associated with music than mails, I like this picture.

You have done an excellent job describing what sort of mails people receive daily.

For me, I receive more junk mails than any meaningful mails

Thanks for sharing with us.

I'd like to know where the seed was planted that had this story flourish. Some wry humor with a dash of adverbial splendor and a pinch of sarcasm.
You have me wondering how heirs would know if the ashes received were me or some heifer, and is a bigger urn needed for a 6'6" 320lbder.

HahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahHhahahahahahHahahahahahahahahahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaahahahahahhhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Ok I know that was almost as irritating, but I laughed for so long that I still couldn't convey to you how funny this was to me. I actually thought about writing nothing, just six stars and a lot of Haha. But that might have been too kind as I'm dealing with the need for that cremation number, since the mr grumpy is back, and after being Ms Nicy Nicy, I'm feeling the need to hurt one of us. So I am going to use the last bit of nice I have in me and not write a three page review as I normally do.
You deserve it.

    LOL, Love it, and thank you for the six stars!!!!! Sounds to me like you need a RANT and get that Mr. Grumpy feeling off your chest. I created the perfect contest for you, look it up. Write a Rant! Thanks, Terry.

I do relate to this story. You do not see or hear from those people until they want a gift or money. If you send them money or a gift, you do not get a thank you note or a phone call. And the questions about,

"Do you ever feel like harming yourself?"

Do they care? Have a great day.

Lol! That's so funny. You helped us get through that ridiculous amount of junk mail. I can only think that it supports our dear postal service since they took away government support of it some time ago. I do like the notification by email as to what to expect. That's a very handy tool especially if you are not home, you know if anything of importance was delivered. Be sure to recycle only stuff without your name and address!

We get some weird post, too, and it all goes straight in the bin. How many trees suffer for some idiotic bit of rubbish? They must know 99% end up in the bin, I suppose the remaining 1% must make it worth it. I loved, loved the idea of sending loads of coupons to newly weds! Lol, what a great idea. Well done, I loved this post. :)) Sandra xx

I love your sense of humour, Terry. Once again you have provided something to chuckle over. I really like your idea of sending the coupons in reply to the wedding and baby shower invitations. Very well written.

    Anne, thank you very much, I should try that coupon thing some time. Terry.
reply by Anne Johnston on 10-Jun-2022
    You are welcome, Terry. We don't get many coupons any more.

Announcement cards when somebody thinks they need a gift or cash - why, you must be referring to my siblings' families! Your solution is brilliant.

I wish I had a six to give you, as your sharply worded stories always make me laugh. Let's just say it's in the mail.
