  Funny post office story.

  I had  a batch of .45 caliber 7 round ammunition clips (magazines) =
that=20
  I was
  shipping to a friend of mine. I walked into the post office and asked=20
  how much
  postage was required to ship them. They asked me what was in the box =
and I
  said, "Magazines." before I could explain myself, the clerk stamped=20
  "Book rate"
  on the box. I didn't want to make them feel stupid so I just said =
"ok."
