Free Personalized Address Labels For Life*

Some time in the distant past, my Darling Wife made a donation to the Disabled American Veterans.

Since then, for several years, several times a year, they send us a fat envelope full of personalized address labels, with a solicitation for further donations. We use the labels instead of handwriting our return address when paying bills and toss the donation request.**

I guess hope springs eternal, but it can't be helping the bottom line at DAV to keep sending these labels out to people who haven't given any donations to their organization in several years.

*For a nominal donation
**Yes, we pay bills by check. If you set up automatic drafts on your checking account, you are either an idiot or doing a good impersonation of one. Paying with a credit card online is only a half-step better.
