More P.S.A.s Real and Otherwise

You may remember from before that I like to post P.S.A.s (public service announcements for those not in the "biz") from time to time...ok, just once, but it could happen more often, you never know.

First P.S.A. (real one) -

You should all go out and buy "Forever" stamps before May 12, 2008. Because they are raising the postage rates again after that date. The Forever stamp will allow you to send first class mail at the current rate (41 non-existent cent sign). As many of you know, I'm in love with the United States Postal Service, so the issue of stamps is one that is near and dear to my heart. And if any of you still manage to send real mail, you might want to get on this.

Second P.S.A. (still real, but not quite as important) -

You can go here to read what to do in an Earthquake. I'm sure this natural disaster does not affect many of you, but it's always nice to be prepared. Also, it's sort of funny if you picture me in an earthquake. You can just imagine how well I deal with that type of emergency situation.

Third P.S.A. -

I just lied. this one is not really a public service announcement, but I wanted to share and I'm nothing if not flexible. So today, just right now, in fact, I had two sisters sign up for my experiment and come in. It was awesome. I was pretty sure they were sisters given the same last name and signing up for the same time slot, but I suppose it could just be a coincidence. So I asked them when they were signing the consent forms. When I asked them their names, the older sister answered. And then when I asked if they were sisters, she answered again. Then I asked if they were twins, they aren't, they are 10 months apart...and she answered again. I loved it. It just seemed like a neat dynamic. I picture them going everywhere together and the younger one not talking. I think that would be awesome. I created a whole little world for them to live in, in my head. I do that a lot. I observe people and then make up their life stories. Nothing too involved, but I tend to try to figure out people's relationships to others in their group and that sort of thing. I guess it gives me something to do in between earthquakes, tornadoes and possible flooding. I just wanted to share that little moment from my day. It amused me. And now, back to work.
