Holy s**t.I'll see yours and raise you one. SoCal mail from Palmdale went north to a hub in Mojave before going south again (right past Palmdale) to a hub in Los Angeles. A check we mailed to our son in Spokane did that little dispsy do, but didn't complete the journey to LA because the USPS truck leaped the median guardrail and burned just south of Palmdale. Well over a month later, our son received that letter in a plastic bag. The envelope and check were charred and damp, and the smell, he said, was indescribable.
