I just went back to the same goddamn post office and talked to a
different friendly disgruntled postal worker. I asked him if they
had any of the new stamps in the display. He said they had all of
them. I asked "Does this mean you have the Dick Nixon stamps?". He
replied that he did, and he handed me a sheet of them. I went over
to the guy who lied to me yesterday and kneed him in the groin.

Go ahead, Zoogz. Don't lick Dick. See if I care.

Which bills do you pay with Dick stamps? I always used Muddy Waters
stamps to pay utility bills and stamps from the "Brush Salesmen" series
to pay my credit card bills. I would send encoded messages to Citibank
via my stamp selection. This way they could tell when I had a loose
bowel movement or an ear infection.

I'd like to see a discussion of which stamps people use and why. What
with the move to the new 32 cent stamps, I think this will become more
important, and is especially relevant to a Dick Nixon newsgroup.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I used Keystone Cops stamps for a long stretch of the unremitting stream
of postal obeisances that The Law seems to delight in extorting from me,
but they quit printing the Silent Film Stars series. Bastards.

Damn right it's important. With the recent changeover, the entire field
of philatelic semiology is in a state of radical flux; NOW is the time,
THIS is the opportunity, for those bold enough to seize it, to REDEFINE
the terms of postal discourse.

At present, I am getting by on standard Gs and a couple of old "Love"s
plus the make-up stamps (allowed me to send Peace + Love with my latest
missive to SRL -- heh) while evaluating the new issues, such as WWII and
Heroes of the Old West. So far, no coherent semantics have emerged. I
have high hopes, however, that a dialectical approach incporporating Black
Heritage, and possibly World Cup as well, will yield positive results.
Nixon will no doubt come to play a crucial role, but its precise nature is,
as yet, far from clear.

I'm envisioning a four-stamp Ritz Brothers set. One each for Harry, Jimmy,
and Al (Harry's would be cross-eyed of course), and the fourth would be
Harry and Jimmy doing that "sandwich" gag from "Blazing Stewardesses",
with the ghost of Al smiling down.

Please don't get me started on Yvonee DeCarlo. I could be rich and
famous right now if it weren't for HER. You all could be jacking off
to glossy photos of ME if Yvonne hadn't stepped and fucked up my
ENTIRE GODDAMNED LIFE!! Really...it was the Mafia's fault, but she was
there to pick up the pieces...

I'd like to see a '50's jewish comedian series: Shelley Berman, Shecky
Greene, Mort Sahl, Lenny Bruce, Bob Newhart, Buddy Hacket...

And Joe? I'd use another fluid, except the last time I dropped trou in
the Post office, they made me dance on one of the tables for a good
half hour, and I only made $20 in tips. It's just not worth the
trouble.

This would coincide nicely with the Ritz Brothers set. I'm pleased
that you've excluded Jerry Lewis. That little ratshit never gave
Dean the respect he deserved. I didn't know Bob Newhart is Jewish.

I agree, the stamp situation has been been pretty weak ever since the
price went up to 32 cents - I've been paying my electric bills with the
Elvis stamp but of course they never got to the "electric headquarters"
with insufficient postage and the lights have been pretty dim around here
ever since. In a few months the Marilyn Monroe stamp will be out and I'm
sure I'll feel like a Kennedy when I lick that one.

Point well taken. I suspect the Nixon stamps will be common on
Publisher's Clearinghouse submissions, and on refund requests
from those Hickory Farms gift assortments, particularly those
that emphasize sausage.

I paid my phone bill with a Billie Holliday stamp, and now I
can't dial any phone numbers with a '4' in them.

You should try giving the Marilyn Monroe stamp an overdose of
sleeping pills. Maybe then you'll be Attorney General.

When the "Bob" stamp comes in, you'll use it for everything. A postcard to
next door, one "Bob" stamp. A 700-pound crate of bricks to China, one
"Bob" stamp. All the Ceylonese back to Ceylon, one "Bob" stamp. ALL THE
PINKS TO KINGDOM COME, ONE "BOB" STAMP.

Oops, I forgot. They won't allow a "Bob" stamp because he smokes a pipe.
They'd have to airbrush it out. And then the stamp wouldn't move a
postcard across the street.

All this talk about Richard Nixon makes me nervous. You shouldn't be
disrespectful towards Presidents even if they were chronically
incontinent.

Well, considering that nothing in "The Book", as you call it,
is actually TRUE, we should take that picture for exactly what it is:
a pretty picture to look at while taking a long spell on the Throne
Of Relief. (How do you spell relief, kids? E-X-C-R-E-M-E-D-I-T-A-T-I-O-N)
So, all this time, Stang and the rest of the honchos behind this
whole farce have been laughing at us while going out for $2,000 a plate
lunches with this nation's figure-heads...

Stang: Boy, Bill, we sure had them fooled, didn't we?

Bill: Yeah, the plan worked, people sure do disrespect me,
thus making us THE MOST HATED aspect of the conspiracy
so our more important arms can continue to work in secret.
The only problem I see is that people keep on trying to
assassinate me.

Stang: Just hold out 'til X-Day. You're playing the key role of
the wooden duck. Then MWOWM will take over, and we'll
be able to swindle "Bob" out of the title for the Earth
AFTER he makes the deal with the X-ists... That way,
the Conspiracy will still retain control of the Earth,
without even a single head launched. Beautiful. I can't
believe those Yeti were too stupid to realise that I'm
not one of them... SUB-genius indeed!

Bill: Hey, can you pass the prawn?

Stang: Sure... Nice spread, Bill...

Gentler, Kinder? GOOD "BOB" NO!!! Something is amiss, the bobyons must

St. andrew, you DUMB KID, I guess you hadn't noticed that all that Lick
Dick stuff was a CROSSPOST MINDFUCk on alt.fan.richard.nixon. How the hell
do you expect the Nixon fans to believe (and leter ponder upon) my MEAN
LIE about Nixon having chronic incontinence if they thought I was being
some kind of a FUNNY SUBGENIUS?? Cripes man, the idea is that the
alt.fan.nixon people start thinking their next door neighbors and fellow
Nixon fans are CRAZIER THAN BEDBUGS but SINCERE. That "respectfulness"
business was to add CLOYING SINCERITY to what was otherwise ... oh I give
up. Kids.
