Getting the moribund Postal Service up and running again, however, may be a near-impossible task, what with literally mountains of decades-old undelivered mail clogging every nook and cranny of the broken-down post office building and with only a few creaky old postmen and one rather unstable, pin-obsessed youth available to deliver it.
