Mailman


All Aboard the Meme Express – Wednesday, February 4, 2009


February 4th is Thank a Mailman Day. Although the origins of this occasion are uncertain, the idea seems to have merit. Have you thanked your mail carrier lately?


In honor of this letter-perfect holiday, here is “Please, Mr. Postman,” performed by The Carpenters. (Karen Carpenter died of anorexia on February 4, 1983.)

Today’s Meme Express prompt is: Mailman.


Perhaps this concept will inspire you to create a drawing, a poem, a short story, or a journal entry. Then return here to leave a comment with your link. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)

  1. Prescription Post-Its
    Ducks follow the lead duck, unaware of the sludge around them. Lambs follow shepherds to lush fields or slaughter. How do we choose leaders worthy of our trust? Have we denied the danger of masking a mortal wound, simply because we wish it not so?

  6. Thank-You Notes and Family Quotes
    Thank-you notes have become something of a lost art in recent years. Has thankfulness disappeared? Must we take one another's generosity for granted? How can parents teach children to demonstrate their gratefulness to others?
