It has  been noticed as well, that my QH based magazine arrives unread. 
Interesting. 




Lisa, it's really funny that you should mention this... I happen to get the QH 
magazine too, as my 
Dad was a life member, and is really does come unread and pristine.

As for The Herald, what did happen to the heavy paper on the cover and the nice 
plastic wrapping.   
I thought that this same problem was why we went to the plastic sleeve in the 
first place?

Do we know this is a postal issue? Does it go anywhere prior to post office?



Oh it's definitely a Postal Issue... I worked for a magazine for almost 10 
years and had the same issues. The PO really doesn't give a sh*t about the 
condition of your products.? We even had cases where prople's magazines would 
arrive in their mailbox with muddy footprints and TIRE TRACKS! And the PO would 
say it was ordinary, incidental handling damage. And Lisa wasn't kidding 
either; I have received some of my magazines with coffee stains, egg yolk?and 
other unidentified food stuck on them. One place I lived, every week one of the 
people on our mail route would not get their TV Guide. It usually wouldn't go 
missing two weeks in a row, but it was funny that someone's would be missing 
EVERY week.

I would imagine the plastic is for inclement weather. Our paper does not 
come in plastic in the summer. It is nice to receive a dry paper but if it 
is not needed, save it, less to recycle.


Do we know this is a postal issue? Does it go anywhere prior to post office? 
I am qiute sure Beth and Sandy take extreme care in their handling but maybe 
it is handled in between?


I got the same enjoyment as in past issues it was just a  bit beat to poop.

FWW - my Herald arrived today, in pristine condition.  The photos and layout
look terrific.  Are there any fjordies out this way?  I moved here this
spring, from Marengo OH.

In light of recent complaints regarding torn and muffed up Fjord Heralds, I 
decided to take action and wrote the following letter. 

Dear Postmaster, 

Regarding the condition of our beloved Fjord Herald, I am writing to you in 
a desperate attempt to rectify this unacceptable situation. The fact that 
apparently even you're most seasoned delivery carriers are taking it home to

read before arriving at its destinations is a gross scar on the normally 
excellent service you have trained us to expect. 

Creases, little frays of the edges and ripped covers are not the entire 
problem, although very un-professional in my opinion. Jelly and peanut
butter 
smears on the photos of the Fjordscoffee stains ( suggesting to me ADULT

participation as well ) on the ads for carriages and ( oh horror ) crumpled 
back cover, is aproaching criminal. I have even heard of dog hair, crayon 
creatures being drawn next to beautiful photos and X-mas lists scribbled on 
empty spaces listing  grey dun, filly, english saddle, bridle and a pink
pad 
with matching leggins' .  
 Well. It should not be too difficult to assume that some poor pony starved 
child needs more adult supervision.

Like you're carriers, we wait anxiously for each issue. Dispite the fact 
that some of the writers do not even one time, include the real ( registered
) 
names of the Fjord pony they are writing about.. OR maybe one teeeny 
mention of their bloodlines, forcing us to run to our computers and look it 
all up, it is an important moment when we sit down on the ground at our 
mailbox's or stretch out on the floor inside the Post Office, to scan the
latest 
in accomplishments from our talented membership. 

I might even offer that recieving the latest issue of the Fjord Herald 
equals recieving our tax refund, ( or IOU if you live in CA. )  Publishers 
Clearing House notification of winning a subscription and ( GASP ) offer
from a 
Credit card company that you may qualify for a 50,000 credit line at 22 %.


We are outraged and will not stand for any more disrespect of our official 
magizine. Please ask ALL you're carriers to contact Mike May, or visit the 
NFHR webpage to offer a list of breeders and ponies for sale, and direct 
you're carriers to go get their own Fjord. 

I noticed also, that you again raised our rates for first class stamps. All 
of my own bills were returned to me for lack of .2, my bad of course. 
However.please take this as an official notice that our Heralds must be
sent 
across the country, sit in huge bins of assorted E-Bay auction packages, be 
rifled through by the DEA Drug puppies, thrown into airplanes and 
transported 1,000's of miles, only to be tossed around into more bins,
thrown into 
stinky old delivery trucks and hand delivered to our own homes.  They should

arrive in the pristine condition that we all expect. It has  been noticed as

well, that my QH based magazine arrives unread. Interesting. 

Yes, we expect alot. We are Fjord people. We are USED to perfection.
