My wife decided to mail a rosary in an envelope. Normally, we put our envelopes in the nearest mail box. Today, we gave it to a postal worker along with other mail needing to be weighed. Good thing we did.
The postal worker said that letters from boxes are sorted by machine. The rosary would have jammed their machine and as we were told, “EVERY bit of mail after ours would not be able to be sent.”
No mail, no checks sent. More defaults, including mortgages. The already fragile world would have collapsed. The world government, already in debt to their gills, would have collapsed. Millions of hungry people would have rioted endlessly in search of bread and meat for their families. Military despots would have invaded other countries to secure dwindling food supplies. The losing countries would have launched their nuclear missiles.
Oh my goodness! Nuclear winter! Armageddon!
Thank goodness, we took that letter inside the post office and gave it to a person who put it in the proper bin. Oh dear, I think I need a root-beer restorative.
