Kopi Luwak is not as tasty (to me) as Blue Mountain or Tanzanian Peaberry. I don't get the hype. But obviously I don't have a wide range of coffee I'll drink (the first sentence is pretty much the whole world of it).
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

The post office is in trouble in the first place because it was milked to lower the nominal deficit. It was forced to prefund pensions (for 30 or 70 years - I forget which) over the course of ten years. No one else, public or private in the U.S. has that requirement. As far as I know , no one else in the world.

Kopi Luwak might be un-bitter enough for me to enjoy. However, at $10 for a cup it may. E a while before I get around to trying it.

Our wings are not tired.
I clearly have peasant coffee taste since the stuff at 7-11 or my corner Racetrack tastes great to me. Less than a buck to refill my big cup, when they charge me, which they often don't.

Your postal service is still faster than our postal service, and cheaper.
It is Tuesday in 10 hours 29 minutes here!
ETA: Also, I believe restaurants are not allowed to serve burgers rarer than medium well in NS, due to health regulations.

The faster may be about to change.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
