This is kind of gross, but for the past few days my mail has been arriving with blood on it--as if someone at the post office gets a paper cut from sorting the mail then touching all of the mail. At least I hope that is how it gets there?

Oh yeah I have noticed it a good bit since I moved back to Athens for school. I never put much thought into until today, when the blood streak was actually across a rather large envelope with one of those brass barbs you have to pry open, it was on the part I had to touch. So I used my sleeve to open it and then started the wash. :funn:
Papercuts on the mail sorter are the only logical thing I can think of.

maybe you should try putting some blood or blood substitute on your outgoing mail and see how they like it ????

Maybe there was a recent 'going postal' event and the USPS kept it quiet?

Anthrax, bloody mail...hummm sounds like another terrorist plot to me. Wear gloves and a mask just in case. Or have an assistant you can spare open the mail for you.

This is as mysterious as Beach Runner's mailbox! Remember that thread, about the flag tip that was broken off her box and then re-appeared ten years later? I don't think we ever solved that one....

Those were the days. We debated that poor mailbox until it was the most famous mailbox in Georgia. We were contentious as all get out, then kissed and made up in the morning. Ah....
