We tried that... the Johnnies kept throwing the pony and rider out...
they said "no Ponies! at least not without a Dog and a Show!"

I believe that Western Union has an Internet Portal, so you could get
your tag-cloud sent via morse-code to the nearest depot then hand
delivered.  There is probably a ReEnactment troupe in your area who
could *pretend* to be a Pony Express rider, though he usually appears as
Paul Revere so you will have to accept the Tricorn instead of a
Roosevelt Rough Rider on his head...
