Stick It to Ya

Last Thursday, The U.K.'s Royal Mail service unveiled 10 new stamps featuring select monumental albums from the last 40 years. My rock'n'roll heart is pretty excited for some of these. The Clash stamp is pure class ... and so are the Blur, New Order, and David Bowie stamps. Here's hoping this is the first installment! Pretty steller idea, don't ya think? I need to get my hands on these, stat! More from The Telegraph.

'What a day, eh, Milhouse?'


I wasn't allowed to watch The Simpsons when it first came out because my Mom thought it was anti-family, but these stamps are pretty awesome (I collect stamps, ok?).

Yesterday, the United States Postal Service unveiled the look of the forthcoming Simpsons stamps, set for a nationwide release on May 7. Fans should be thrilled to hear that these stamps will be available in booklets of 20 AND stamped postal cards in packs of 20.

So yeah, Simpsons fans (or stamp-collecting geeks), head over to USPS.com to vote for your favorite Simpsons character! Voting concludes May 14. Also, enter your chance to win a limited-edition Simpsons poster signed by show creator and executive producer Matt Groening.

The Simpsons, the longest-running comedy in TV history, is currently in its 20th season.

For fun, let's remember "Do the Bartman:"
