I really have to feel sorry for anyone who delievers anything to your home
The mailman gets killed off, UPS delievers suspicious packages. Geez, such a dangerous place!

Not necessarily, Blonde ...
However, what happens is, when you live in a neighborhood such as this, you pretty much have to generate your own excitement/murder mysteries.

Yes, Corbin, to avoid being later found post-mortem.

I love happy endings!
A human life unharmed was worth a little humiliation right?
It was nice that you were so concerned.........or were you expecting something special in the mail?

Yeah, markng, I feared my neighbor had been murdered, as well.
Still do, actually.
Although, I've been informed there hasn't actually been a murder in this area in over a 100 years.

I just ran into the house, and hid, Ann.
I (seriously) haven't spoken to them since.

It's a happy ending in one sense, BlackPearl
Though, in another sense, I find it somehow oddly tragic.

(Yet another) good one, Azur.
Btw, you aren't allowed to use the term "soooo" ... you may only use the traditional "so".

Madem, Now I understand. The horrifying part of this tale is that you really didn't get any mail? MoonSpirit 
(p.s. just send me your address by email and I'll make sure that this horrible episode never occurs again; I'll mail you daily and that way something will always be in you mailbox.....BTW, you mother lives at the same address, yes?)
