The USPS changed its postmark rule Dec 24. Postmarks now reflect the date mail is processed at a facility, not when you drop it off, potentially causing delays for tax returns, BALLOTS, payments. Mail time-sensitive items days early or get a manual, hand-stamped postmark at the post office counter.

I've never understood the point of these signs. If you see ice falling, it's all about fate. You're going to experience a good scare, bodily injury or death. #Chicago

Since the 1930s, virtually every Democratic president with a significant social-welfare expansion has been called a socialist by the Republican Party. The most frequently and consistently targeted: Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Lyndon Johnson, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden. Somehow we survived.
