1. A delivery driver arrived early one morning, noticing an unusual package addressed to ‘The Mayor of Alexandria’ with no return address. Curious, he decided to keep it in the mailroom until someone claimed it. Days passed, and nobody came for the mysterious parcel. Finally, a regular customer joked, 'Maybe it's from Santa!' The delivery driver grinned, deciding to deliver it anonymously during Christmas. To everyone's surprise, the next day, the mayor himself thanked them publicly—turning out, he’d always wanted to be Santa.

Curious, he opened the door just enough to peer inside, only to see rows of stamps seemingly dancing in unison. As he watched, the stamps began forming shapes—first a heart, then a smiley face. Startled, the mailman quickly closed the door and ran back to his truck, muttering something about too much coffee. But the next day, everyone in town received their letters with an extra stamp, and a note scribbled on each one: 'Have a great day!'
