[size 2] [font "comic sans ms"] Recently we have been inundated with the Tour de France on TV. With this in mind the U.S. team is sponsored by the U.S. Postal Service. Do they really need to advertise, is the reason for the rate increases for stamps and and shipping? In a way this kind of chaps my (you know). I feel this is a complete and total waste of MY MONEY. So what's your take?
