Spaced Out


I went to the post office last week to mail a Mother's Day card. A woman ahead of me at the window asked to buy some stamps and the postal worker said, "Here are our newest stamps of the Mercury astronauts."

When I got to the window I asked him, "What does it mean when our government ends America's space program and then issues new stamps about space exploration in the 1960s?"

I think his mouth is still hanging open.

Meanwhile, the United States Postal Service reported a $3.2 billion loss last quarter.

More on the travesty of America's space program here.
