Junk Mail Information: Yesterday I got one that I had NEVER GOTTEN BEFORE!!!!!

...I have gotten them all. Every kind you can think of. Don't even go there, I have gotten them. So, yesterday there was one from an organization that had never before sent me a piece of junk mail. The organization that was new to my junk mail collection was/is...NRA.

....The National Rifle Association sent me a letter with a beautiful cover in yellow, red and more colors. I have not opened it yet, Perhaps I will request more information, so they can waste their funds. I just wanted to share this information in the lounge. I have been getting Junk Mail for more than 50 years. This is a first!!! Had to let you know.

Tossed it in the trash.

We get phone calls from them from time to time because they ignore the phone message telling solicitors to hang up. We hang up for them.

it had a real looking membership card in it - of course they wanted some money. I kept the card thinking it may come in handy some day.

pack the envelope with other junk mail and return it. That way they have to pay postage in both directions for nothing!

Well, heck, you're a guy so I suppose it would be called chuckling....

I got one a couple of years ago that we taped to a 20 lb. steel pipe and sent back!
