Is it bad that I giggled out loud when I read this?
4/10 of an inch of rain? Seriously? Is that a typo?
It has to be a typo, right?
Thatâs a light drizzle in FL!
And thatâs posted after the FL panhandle, Alabama and Georgia just got hit with a hurricane!
I know, right?
We got almost 2 inches of rain in an hour one day last week, and we werenât even in a hurricane pathway.
If thatâs whatâs newsworthy, no wonder they have to deal with out of control wild fires!
Well, thatâs not good at allâŚ
No one has to do that, USPS does it all on its own.
This reminds me of the âHelp! The Sky is Falling!â type panic from a few months ago about the end of Net Neutrality.
The Wikipedia article for this âUniversal Postal Unionâ mentions that, as of 2018, it costs 2x as much to mail from the USA to the USA as it does for China to mail to the USA.
Which looks like a pretty good indicator that the current system has some serious issues.

After reading that article, the next step will be to change âJust For Menâ to âFor Everyoneâ
This reminds me of all the flak Dr. Pepper took a few years back when they ran a tongue-in-cheek commercial that tried to make diet soda manly with the branding âDr. Pepper 10: Itâs Not for Women!â
Why have I not heard of Mansize Kleenex before?
I donât know, where have you been?
Kimberly-Clark said the product has been on store shelves for 60 years
Iâve lived in Oklahoma, Texas & Florida and never noticed it on the shelf. They have an industrial strength Kleenex that we buy.

I remember seeing them when we lived in Iowa several years ago. I havenât really noticed them lately. But then again, I havenât looked.
Dunno, itâs not on store shelves in my area.
Out of curiosity I checked the normal grocery stores as well as the local Warehouse Club.
