Moddin' Gone Postal...

[AJ@PR]

Just had to share this with you guys...

I was driving down the road earlier today, on my way to get one of those nice chocolate Milk Shakes they sell over at ColdStone Creamery. Yum!

Anyways, I stumbled upon something interesting... don't know if you guys have seen it before.

USPS has a pretty cool sense of humour

A Star Wars USPS MailBox (http://www.uspsjedimaster.com)... wow.

Has anybody seen these?
It's news to me! :)

I saw one on my vacation to St. Louis. They are pretty sweet.

If I see one I'm gonna spraypaint "JarJar Sucks" on it.

[Eclecticos]

I went to the website you can cast your vote on new stamps.

Why does everyone hate JarJar? lol I swear I'm the only person who likes him...

[SgtM]

Yeah, the "prequels" were aimed toward a younger audience with lower IQs. Or George Lucas was drunk or something when he wrote them, hence the birth of "Jar Jar."

I officially wish to purchase a mailbox! :D

[nil8]

What a great way for the USPS to pay royalties and a neat advertisement at the same time.

[ChevronX]

Nice; they dont have stuff like that here in New Zealand :-(

[The Black Pumpkin]

Ya know, they should have made the whole mailbox look like R2, not just paint it similar!

Now THAT would be true postal modding!

Man I wonder how many of those have been stolen by Starwars fans. You would only need an angle grinder and a few friends to carry it.

[DaJe]

Or a Dremel...

I didn't know the streets of America were littered with Electrical sockets...must be a crazy place! :p

[Zephik]

lol they actually pretty much are... at least where I live. They are everywhere, especially in sidewalks. Just be sure to bring at least 10 feet of extension cords and you should be set!

Yeah they put them there for all of our electric cars.

Excellent!!!!

[Drew]

Reckon they're remote control........?

Gonna replace posties.

Now THAT would be cool - hundreds of R2-D2s running around.

[Redundant]

I've seen angle grinders and jigsaws with li-ion batteries. 8)

Speaking of plugs, everyone at school plugs in their electronic crap so they can charge it during class. tsk, tsk...
Is there a reason Europe uses 240v instead of 120v?

[DaveW]

Is there a reason Europe uses 240v instead of 120v?

I think it's supposed to be safer, as the current is lower?

-Dave

[Airbozo]

I think the real difference is in the frequency. US= 60hz Mostoftherestoftheworld= 50hz

60hz is _supposed_ to be closer to the human heart rate and therefore more dangerous. We like to live dangerously here in the states...

[Omega]

60hZ at 120v is the perfect frequency for killing people. 240v, 50hZ, not so much.
