Very interesting story!
Can't help thinking about the song "the gift" by the Velvet Underground in which someone mails himself to his girlfriend. That story gets a macabre twist though.

To me there are some things in life that are worth spending the extra time/effort/money on. Children is one of them.
Ah yes, children. You gotta love 'em. Or not….
I taught in two elementary schools and one secondary school for 17 years. I had a few students that I would have liked to mailed with insufficient postage to a bogus address and no return address!
