Mailbox Solution

The lady who delivers our mail is clinically insane. That might just be a rumor I've heard. Our mailbox is on a common post with our neighbors' boxes, and a couple of months ago she drove her truck into the post and knocked the boxes loose. Our box was completely knocked off and she made a pretty poor attempt to reattach it. The post office was supposed to send some one out to repair it but this weekend I got tired of waiting and nailed it back into place.

I don't have a 'before' picture, but here's the 'after' photo.

Ours is the one in the middle.

It required very little effort and I really should've done it weeks ago, but I thought the post office should show some responsibility. Jerks.

It would have been nice if you would have replaced the mailbox with the head of an alligator. I believe mailpeople would appreciate it. Just like I overheard in the checkout line at Su Tong Vin's Beauty Supply & Pet Care Outlet; "when you've seen one mailbox, really, haven't you seen them all"?

I'm intrigued. Do you mean an actual alligator head or plastic? What would one use as an "I have mail to send" flag indicator on a gator head mailbox?
