From Peter Shankman‘s HARO newsletter:
So, the General Post Office at 34th St. and 8th Avenue is the one that gets all the letters addressed to “Santa – North Pole, Earth” every year. Well, did you know you can go and pick up as many as you want? I did! Meagan’s job this morning was to go to Toys R Us and buy a “Baby Alive,” a “My Little Pony,” a giant Teddy Bear, Play-Doh, Batman Indoor RC Racers, a Remote Control Helicopter, and right now, she’s struggling to figure out how to wrap all this stuff when NASA is constantly jumping in the wrapping. It’s a pretty decent feeling today here at HARO Central.
This is a great idea– I wonder if there’s a Toledo (or Seattle?) equivalent. Kudos to Peter for thinking of it!
Update: looks like the USPS has stopped Operation Santa for the time being. That stinks.
