Though Seinfeld was never known for satire, it pretty much hit the nail on the head with Newman.I would love to have had a bucolic childhood where I had a friendly relationship with a reliable, whistle-happy mailperson.
I would hurry home from school with hopes that my X-ray specs from Boys Life were finally going to arrive today.
If I had the fortune of running into Postman Barney on the way, I'd even ask him personally. "Hey Mr. Barney, did my X-Ray specs come today?" "Nope. Not today, champ."
You know why my X-ray specs didn't come that day?
