Watch them wave goodbye to their jobs, to their health care coverage.

I always used the books of stamps until one of my lovely nieces gave me a beautiful wooden stamp roll holder. So I had to switch to the 100 stamp rolls. Never completed a roll before the price rose, so I've used a lot of 1 and 2 cent stamps. I figured the forever stamps were the answer, only to discover that the didn't come in rolls.

Re USPS cutbacks, those folks have a very strong union. Nobody's going to lose a job. If anything, they'll hire more to handled the change.

I too wish Hercules were back. Don't know about the ancient Greeks, but the Kevin Sorbo version always had scores of beautiful, buxom Kiwi & Aussie girls around. I especially liked it when Callisto, Aphrodite, or Deianeira were on. Maybe this wasn't Aesop, but it was good 90's escapism television.

Sorry Tony.
