The USPS has more important things to worry about than celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of Star Wars. That should be a fan concern, not a government concern, and ultimately the USPS is a government agency.
Anything else I say about this is bound to go political so I'll just leave it at that. | |

And by 'helping us celebrate,' they really mean "we paid them a shitload.'

This is no different than ads on city busses. This actually brings in money to the USPS. It's advertising. KISS will be next.

I wish Army would sell ad space. I'd love to have a Bradley with a movie ad airbrushed on the side. Or unit sponsorships. Belonging to the 3-6 Coca-Cola Field Artillery Battalion would kick ass. Plus, we'd get free soda.
