The U.S. Post Office lost $8.5 billion last year. That’s dollars, not Pesos or Beanie Babies or Jonas Brothers; $8.5 BILLION. How much longer are we going to carry this relic of the Old West? Seriously, when was the last time you received anything of value via the post office, outside of those oblong things that come in plain brown wrappers? My mailbox is stuffed daily with credit card offers and appeals from my alma mater for money. Both of which, incidentally, could save millions of dollars by not mailing out these stupid things. Hey University Of Dayton, don’t get me wrong I love you, but I haven’t given you money since I graduated ... what makes you think this is the year? (It’s not) Back to The Post Office, though; we’ve been divesting ourselves of old technology over the past decade, like VHS, dirty magazines, and Nancy Pelosi, and I think it’s time to take Old Posty out back and ... send him to meet Old Yeller, if you get my drift. We no longer have phonographs, ride horses, or use cameras that require you to duck under a big black hood (although those were pretty cool if you think about it), so why are we holding onto a method of communication that no one uses anymore? Email, Twitter, Facebook, tiny hidden cameras in her bedroom, THESE are the tools of 2010. If the government sold The Post Office to U.P.S. or Fedex, think of the money they’d save.
Nah. Makes too much sense.

US researchers unveiled the secret of how cats lap water or milk with such elegance, a phenomenon that happens so fast it cannot be followed by human eyes.

The operator of Wendy's and Arby's restaurants lost money in its third quarter, blaming it on higher cost for ingredients. Others say it’s because their food tastes like reheated duck farts. Seriously, cut the menu down to nothing but Frosty’s and Jamocha Shakes, then they can make money.
