Mailboxes

So the other day, as I was walking around downtown Princeton, I happened upon a post office box that was a little different from what I'm used to. You know what I'm talking about, right? Those blue metal boxes you can drop your USPS mail into that are about 4 feet high? Well, this one wasn't blue. It was painted to look like R2-D2. That's right, this mailbox looked exactly like that little robot from Star Wars we al love and adore. At the time, I figured I was just going crazy (normal thought process), but today I learned that, in about 200 select cities, USPS mailboxes are being painted to look like Rs-D2. And they have done a really good job of it, too. It looks pretty darn cool (I love Star Wars, and that probably makes me some sort of nerd). They even have a website about it: http://www.uspsjedimaster.com. How cool is that? Or ridiculous? I was happy with them sponsoring a pro cycling team, but this'll work, too.

In other news, I think, with the new bike and the beginning of Spring, it's time to start shaving the legs again. There is something to be said for smooth legs, although I confess, it takes forever.
