  • I can't wait to tag that bot.
  • For fuck's sake.
  • *whistles*
  • I will pay money to anyone who can steal me one of these. Thanks
  • That is just plain 100% fuckin' cute. I can't wait.
  • From what I remember R2-D2 wasn't always that forthcoming about delivering messages....
  • So, does this mean my mail will be read to me by a Princess Leia hologram? Groovy!
  • Very very cool.
  • For fuck's sake. Oh, you don't know the half of it NickD. In fact, perhaps not a third. You just don't know the power of the [TRANSMISSION GARBLED]. And rest easy, Underpants. R2 is coming to a corner near you today, Friday, 3/16. What you need to understand is that this is--ack! *Clutches throat
  • Okay, they kind of give a bit of it away at on the URL you all saw on the mailboxes and must have checked. Right? Right? (BearGuy can neither confirm nor deny his employment with anyone responsible for anything indicated in this post, nor can he confirm or deny the number of times he may or may not have bitten his tongue whilst possessing this information which he can not confirm or deny he has known since December...maybe.)
  • From Wonkette: USPS marketing director Anita T. Bizzotto “urged people not to tamper with them, noting that’s a crime.” Yes, only the U.S. Postal Service can legally tamper with the mailboxes by renting them out like billboards to the highest bidder.
  • Sweet.
  • Here's your chance to lick Chewie.
  • That's what she said! Haa! I kid, I kid. But seriously folks, it's great to be here tonight . . .
  • Woo-hoo! Sing "Sister Golden Hair!"
  • have you ever tried to get Wookie fur outta yer teeth, Capt.?
  • I heard Wookie Fur is playing tonight and they got a new guy on bass.
  • Heh. Just read on that site that the nearest one to me will be an hour's drive away. Might be a good excuse for a road trip.
