The Mailman's Last Day
It was George the Mailman's last day on the job after 35 years of carrying the mail through all kinds of weather to the same neighborhood.
When he arrived at the first house on his route he was greeted by the whole family there, who roundly and soundly congratulated him and sent him on his way with a tidy gift envelope. At the second house they presented him with a box of fine cigars. The folks at the third house handed him a selection of terrific fishing lures.
At the fourth house he was met at the door by a strikingly beautiful woman in a revealing negligee. She took him by the hand, gently led him through the door (which she closed behind him), and led him up the stairs to the bedroom where she blew his mind with the most passionate love he ever experienced. When he had had enough they went downstairs, where she fixed him a giant breakfast: eggs, potatoes, ham, sausage, blueberry waffles, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. When he was truly satisfied she poured him a cup of steaming coffee. As she was pouring, he noticed a dollar bill sticking out from under the cup's bottom edge.
"All this was just too wonderful for words," he said, "but what's the dollar for?"
"Well," she said, "last night, I told my husband that today would be your last day, and that we should do something special for you. I asked him what to give you. He said, 'Fuck him. Give him a dollar.' The breakfast was my idea."

Clients' Legal Info Found In Lawyer's Dumpster
GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo. ― Police collected 17 boxes filled with Social Security numbers and other personal information from a trash container behind an office building in Colorado on Sunday Nov. 11, 2007.
Jeff Smith, a former victim of identity theft himself, found the boxes in Greenwood Village, Colo., and called CBS station KCNC-TV in Denver to complain."
Came over here to throw some trash, noticed all the files in there, thought that was kind of awkward, so I pulled the files out and they were all legal cases," said Smith.
After looking over the documents, they appeared to be from the office of W. Dan Mahoney, an attorney who works in the building.
Mahoney admitted throwing them in the trash."I apologize to my clients whose files I discarded in the private business dumpster," he said in a statement. "I did not anticipate someone trespassing through the dumpster before it was to be dumped Monday morning."Mahoney said he will shred the information in the future and normally does. He said he was cleaning out old files before moving."
If there was a chain of evidence that would show who did, it, I think there could be a good possibility of litigation," said Bob Pence, a retired FBI agent.
