- GawtMilk, on 10/12/2007, -3/+127It probably went along the lines of, "Hey, Betty. There's an R2-D2 shaped mailbox. Want to put on your Star Wars costume" and not "Hey! An R2-D2 mailbox. I'll setup camp until some lady dressed like Princess Leila comes along!".
- nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -2/+80betty? it's 2007
- MrStabby, on 10/12/2007, -0/+76Dude...You live in a post office?
...can I get some free stamps? - HunterTV, on 10/12/2007, -2/+62Now they just need to dress someone up as Obi-Wan picking up the letter from the Post Office.
- skyfire1, on 10/12/2007, -6/+56"and not "Hey! An R2-D2 mailbox. I'll setup camp until some lady dressed like Princess Leila comes along!"."
If people camp three weeks for Star Wars, they'll camp for anything. - themarq, on 10/12/2007, -5/+52We're arguing over the name Betty?

- seventoes, on 10/12/2007, -4/+37Congratulations.

- skyfire1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27Do you own a private jet?
- Tolzmaniac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+24No, R2-D2 makes perfect sense. Chewy would eat the mail.
- pagit, on 10/12/2007, -3/+26In my neigbourhood, midgets picked one up and sold it to a farmer.
The police is currently investigating the whereabouts of the missing mailbox - Zinite, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18"hard to describe this one."
"Woman in a Leia costume uses a Star Wars R2D2 themed mailbox in a manner reminiscent of the famous "You are my only hope" scene." - TaeK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19@miketrash
because you're comment hijacking - christopheles, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19"Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi! I can't get to a computer and snail mail is my only hope!"
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15or as lame as that joke is getting
- NSMike, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14This is a nationwide event. Mailboxes just about everywhere are getting transformed into R2D2 for the 30th anniversary of Star Wars. Why mailboxes? Probably because they're the only things in public that really resemble R2, but otherwise I can't fathom why a public service entity like the USPS would go along with this.
- nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -1/+14they're not just in New York, they're everywhere.
- Flashman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12I always wondered why they didn't just release the Death Star source code onto the internet.
- christopheles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10And Anti-Anti-Bush posts.
Democracy is wonderful. - SopMan99, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10I've seen those mailboxes in Indianpolis, Indiana and Tampa, Florida. Pretty sweet idea...

- sucks, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12I smell a seventh movie starring carrie fisher and a mailbox
- panguin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This not the mailbox you are looking for.
- JesusFaction, on 10/12/2007, -8/+14Betty looks like a man
- kenvsryu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Next one you see, tip it over, and pour sand all over the place. Leia has to be in the slave outfit.
- lifeat24fps, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I, for one, welcome our new droid mail carriers.
- GawtMilk, on 10/12/2007, -8/+13Hell you're right. The only "Betty" I know is my school's librarian that stalked me and my friends for a couple weeks.

- ericeman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6Ha, that's clever. Those mailboxes are so cool... they're littered around New York for the Star Wars Anniversary I think.

- jjremy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3'Help me Mr. Postman, you're my only hope!'

- onerythym, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2the other day in the local post office, they had this huge starwars promotional cutout display. There were about 3 or 4 retirees in there complaining. They demanded they take them down, because they felt starwars was offensive.

Yup. Definately looks like a man. -
