got a notice friday that usps tried to deliver something. I filled out the form and left it in the mailbox but it was still there today which is odd. I'm quite curious! their website shows it was sent from last name "Thomas" in ROHNERT PARK, CA.

It's obviously a mistake, don't accept it or you are prolly going to accept more liability be opening it...

dont accept it, as the mail man is leaving, cold cock him from the back of the head and steal and open the mail, then reseal and find out what it is and wake him up and say "are you ok? a crazy man just gone postal on you"

then tell him you'll accept it if you actually want the mail.

i got a certified letter a few weeks ago. i signed the little form, telling the guy to deliver it, and he didn't.

you'll probably have to go to the post office to get whatever it is.

last time I got a certified letter, it was to notify me that the state was yanking my license.

that was almost 9 years ago

If I were gonna send anthrax, I'd bust out my stamps.com account and......


Oh, wait, stamps.com labels are printed with your userdata encoded on them.

how boring. turned out to be a $20 MO from a delinquent trader. I don't know why someone would blow 2.30 on such a small MO
