Because of New Years Day being on Mon and Tues being declared a national day of mourning to honor Pres Ford, there will be no mail delivery for 3 days in a row.

Has that ever happened before in the recent past? If so I can't remember it.

Shawn, I'm confused. You're leaving to go back to college tomorrow? Or next Saturday?

If tomorrow, why do 3 day shipping? :confused:

Of course it is, you're probably pre-adolescent. :)

Hardly. I mean think about it. Why close the PO? Because Ford died? How many postal workers are going to skip work to attend the funeral if they didn't have the day off? That's what I though...very few.

Most federal agencies are closed in honor of the president. This has occured for at least the last 3 late presidents. Them closing shop has no relationship to attending the memorial services. Suggesting so for the 100s of thousands of federal employess is silly. Calling a US president, "some guy" -sigh-

I ordered something from Buy.com yesterday, but it isn't as big an issue that I won't be getting it till after 1/2. I leave home for school on 1/2 and I had my package shipped to my school address.
