Some folks depend on a phone book because they don’t use the 411 service, internet or have use of a smartphone. Some are a bit apprehensive using a wireless item, believing it can be monitored or intercepted. (yes, everything can be, but don’t frighten them with that just yet). Either way, ACME is in trouble, as they fade into history.
The USPS has seen darn near everything when it comes to addresses. They’ll figure it out, believe me. They may screw up Aunt Sophie’s get well card going 2 towns away, but something as outlandish as what Mr Ripley did, and just about anything you try will be a piece of cake to them. Oh, that ‘Neither snow, nor rain..bit that is supposed to be their motto? It’s not. It’s just engraved on the main facility on 8th Ave in NYC. If it snows bad enough, you aren’t getting your TV Guide that day. Those LLV trucks aren’t 4 wheel drive and get stuck just like everybody else.
Catching a mouse isn’t a chore to a cat. They do it more for fun than anything else. Notice they only eat it when there isn’t anything else around.
