ANYTHING by mail.

Like Ralphie in A Christmas Story, we'd run to the mail box everyday...he waiting for his Little Annie Decoder Ring (drink your ovaltine)

and us for...you name it...

xray glasses, fake vomit, gum that turned your mouth black...

reports, 10 dollar books, like Lazy Man's Way to Wealth...

YEA we waited and waited...but every once in a while...it was worth the wait...

Harvey Brody's course spings to mind as one of those WORTHWHILE waits...

X ray glasses...not so much.
