[EL] Mailing from your own mailbox

[Rob Richie]

For what it's worth, the mail today arrived about 5:30 pm on a Saturday.
The harried carrier, new to me and clearly doing a process that was new to
him, said no mail was attempted to be delivered to our neighborhood
yesterday -- first time I think that's happened here in our suburban
Maryland home outside of heavy snow days.

My wife and I still haven't gotten our stimulus payments four months after
many people did.

Not a great testament to government investing in execution of basic
functions, although I recognize the challenges of a global pandemic.
