    Note to everyone who may want to mention that it’s a copyright move or whatever: YES… I obviously know this. But it’s just horrible the way it all worked out. Go see this poster at your local post office, it just makes you sad.

        Exactly! In 1976… it wasn’t all: 1776 to 1976! It was just: 1776!! We all knew what year it was already.

          Owner: No, no…No, it’s stunned!

          Mr. Praline: STUNNED?!?

          Owner: Yeah! You stunned it, just as it was wakin’ up! American Reds stun easily, major.

          Mr. Praline: Um…now look…now look, mate, I’ve definitely 'ad enough of this. That country is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not ‘alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein’ tired and shagged out following a prolonged conflict.

          Owner: Well, it’s…it’s, ah…probably pining for the oil fields.

          Mr. Praline: PININ’ for the OIL FIELDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did it fall flat on his back the moment I got it home?

          Owner: The American Red prefers kippin’ on it’s back! Remarkable country, id’nit, squire? Lovely landscape…

      I posted the comment below about it being for counterfeiting, but man if they have it up in the post offices as well, that is just depressing and ominous. Yikes.

        I have a PO BOX so it’s nothing for me to poke my nose into a post office… but if you can… you gotta see it to believe it.

        Of course, I’m pretty reactive to everything these days… I just have no idea how far we are away from: GAME OVER

            There are these posters in the Post Offices… something about a section of the design looks like a gravestone for the U.S. it’s sad and alarming.

                We have never had an administration before dead set on ending our country as we know it. So… yeah, I’m reactive about this.
