"Notice of Expiration"

I get a daily email showing me what's arriving from the post office every day. Today, I'm getting something with "Notice of Expiration" printed on the envelop. I can imagine a future in which people receive notices like that when their time on earth is expiring. "Would you like to renew for another five years?"

Yeah, I don't even want to think about that.

Imagine the TV ads and junk mail trying to sell you an extended warranty? Well, I guess we already do that - some of us do have replacement parts!

That is funny! I would be pushing that all the time so I could get more done each day.

There was/is a sign on a nearby post office that always made me smile as I entered.

I signed up for "Informed Delivery" many years ago. I get it on my computer and on my phone. Tells me early every morning what I will receive in my mailbox that day. I think they stopped signing people up for the phone app but it can still be had on the computer...Email or I just go to USPS.com every morning and look. You can still register there.

Maybe you should check with your doctor instead of the internet?
