I went to go mail off my unemployment form and needed to buy stamps, so I went to the local Mailbox Etc places. It is run by a muslim couple, the woman in full head-gear, and the stamps they gave me was a quote from the Qu'ran in Arabic. I sent it off to the Unemployment Agency, but I wonder. Because the stamp is something in Arabic, am I about to scare the hell out of the poor postal worker? Even worse, when I put the form in, I did it wrong, so had to reopen the envelope so the lip is slightly torn. Will my letter be x-rayed, sniffed at and tested before it's opened? Will my form ever make it to the Unemployment Office? Am I about to get a visit by the FBI?
