  • Yes.

    But how else can you get rid of the damn junk mail ?

    Since all my bills come electronically, I've considered cutting the bottom out of the mailbox and attaching it to the top of a wood stove.
    Then the junk mail drops down, and is ready to be burnt.

    I don't think they'd fit in my mail box.

    Hitting mailboxes with a baseball bat, setting off a pipe bomb or deliberately striking a mailbox with a car may seem like "sport" to some people, but it's a crime that doesn't pay off. Mailboxes are protected by federal law and tampering with them can lead to some serious criminal penalties.

  • What about a cherry coke in a mailbox?  Surely that isnt considered felonious.  That's just sharing delicious fizzy bliss.
