mail suck line

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Junkyard Wars : One Thread

For those of you with mailboxes out near the road...this is for you. Devise a way for the mail to shoot back up to the house so you don't have to go out there and get it. All I have to do is open my front door 4 inches, thrust out my arm, and pull my mail back in(2 seconds). I see others climbing over snow banks, slipping on ice, loosing their fuzzy slippers. And they don't look none too happy. It could be like a simple pulley or like those drive through bank suction machines. Just an idea.

Just what has this internet come to?

-- julie summersell (juliesummersell@aol.com), February 20, 2003.

I moved from the city not to long ago. My mailbox there was next to the front door-and I complained because daddy would't put a slot in the door(like medical offices and my neighbor) for safety purposes. Now, I have moved to a rural area and it is horrible. I must walk for almost an acre to get the mail. Thank goodness this is the Gulf Coast and no snow.

you are all just very lazy. You have to get off the couch ( I know it is so hard) Turn off the t.v. then open the door walk 200 ft and go open the mail box and pull out the mail. Then walk back sit your fat ass back on the couch and open your mail. It is so sad how lazy people are. Maybe if you did this every day you wouldn't weigh 400 pounds.
