I just got home to find in my mailbox a sealed plastic bag/wrapper containing a large envelope my sister mailed to me a few days ago. It contained a couple dozen folded, handwritten letters our father had written to our mother 50 years ago, and were of sentimental value. The wrapper was imprinted with "WE CARE," and message goes on to say they sincerely regret and apologize for the damage done to our mail, and the postmaster hopes we understand that these things sometimes happen due to the high speed of mail processing equipment. I say, "Bull hockey!" The flap had been neatly opened, not ripped or sliced. Everything SEEMED to be intact, but I have no idea. Neither my sister nor I ever counted the letters, or would be able to tell if any were missing. I really believe the envelope was x-rayed, flagged as potential terrorist communications, and intentionally gone through page by page. Am I being paranoid? I don't really care as much about the invasion as being told a bold-faced lie.
