I sent out a not-so-very heavy package, to a not-so-very far away place, oh-so-very long ago via 'speed' post but it still hasn't reached its destination. Now, when I saw that the name of the service was 'speed' post, I realized that it merely says 'speed', and doesn't specify whether it is high speed or low speed. But, optimistic and good Samaritan that I am, I gave it the benefit of doubt and thought "Of course, it means high speed!". But then I realized...
SPEED POST
Distance = Speed
Time
So, substituting speed in the equation of 'speed post', we get
Distance x Post
Time
Distance x Post = Time
Hence, post is directly proportional to time.
Moral of the story: As post is directly proportional to time, if you send something by Speed Post, it is likely to take more time.
Second moral of the story: Whoever said 'what's in a name', never sent anything by Speed post.
