The Post Office says it's going to start putting living people's faces on stamps. Everyday Joes and Janes have been able to put their own mugs on stamps for quite a while now, but to have the government do it -- well, it's bound to degenerate pretty quickly. It'll start with something like the Kennedy Center Honors winners, but within a couple of years it will be the latest toupees on the congressional committees that control the postal budget.

Maybe they ought a start a reality TV show where viewers text in their picks. I'd go with Tommy Lasorda, right off.
