A homeowner has a large dog in the fenced-in front yard, where the mailbox is located. When a mailman tried to deliver mail, the dog lunged at him, and he barely made it through the gate. “I've decided that I won't make any more deliveries to that house until they put the mailbox outside the fence,” he declared. “How will you notify them about that?” I asked. “Oh,” he answered. “That's easy. We'll just send them a letter.”
一位房主人在他有圍墻的前院養(yǎng)了一條狗。信箱座落在前院里。當郵差要送信的時候,那條狗突然向他撲過去,他勉強才逃出院子。他宣稱:“我已經(jīng)決定,在他們把信箱移到院子外面來以前,我決不再給那一家送信了。”我問他:“那你怎么通知他們呢?”他回答說:“那簡單,我們會給他們發(fā)一封信。”
