Last night as Holly and I were settling down to watch the latest episode of Chuck, my phone rang. I didn’t recognize the number so I figured that it was another survey to ask me who I’ll be voting for at the Republican State Convention in a few weeks. I answered the phone expecting to have a delay while the call was routed to some operator in a call center. Instead, my greeting was answered immediately with an actual person. The caller asked if he was speaking with Jeremiah, which he obviously was, so I answered in the affirmative. He then introduced himself as Rob Bishop. This is where my mind went weird.

Last night President Obama laid out his healthcare reform plans for the world to see. I’ve been trying to stay away from political topics but I can’t resist this one. I promise I’ll keep it brief.
At my work we ship a lot of stuff. So much stuff that we have a UPS guy make two stops at our office every day. Note that I said UPS guy and not mailman. Our mailman is a nice guy but we’re lucky to see him once a week because of Postal Service cutbacks. This can be extremely irritating when we have to mail something. The Postal Service isn’t reliable enough for us to depend on so we chose to go with a non-government entity for our shipping needs.
