Or as my first flight instructor told me, "The envelope has airspeed
going horizontal and altitude going vertical. Pushing the envelope
puts you into the upper right corner of the envelope. That's also
where the stamp gets cancelled."

Actually, if the truth be known, not that exceeding the right side
won't get you killed, it's the LEFT side of the envelope that gets

Or, to put it in a grossly understated way, the part of the envelope where

You put the return (to sender) address on the left side or sometimes
the backside... How apropos.
