That kind of place

So Geof walks into the Canada Post office in Valleyview a few weeks ago to get a post office box so we can forward our mail there. First of all, because we aren't residents yet, getting a box costs money. "Why don't you just wait until you get here and save the money?" he's asked. Well, we need it for our utility bills and arrangements, so he gets it anyway.

He inquires, "What are the chances of getting box 855?" (which was the C's box number before they left for Kelowna in the early 90s).

She looks at him and says, "I thought you were a Cornelsen!"

And that's just the kind of place it is.
