I want to go pick it up in person

 

[seruzawa]

Mike Hailwood? Why, I thought that Matt Mladin was the greatest all time motorcyclist!



The Isle of Man issues a Mike Hailwood stamp.



The USPS gives us boring Harleys and..... Distinguished American Diplomats! Yes! Household names for sure. Hiram Bingham IV! Frances E. Willis! Giants of history whose names will live forever!

 

[Buzglyd]

Bingy rocked, bro.

 

[seruzawa]

From the USPS website: "Since the posthumous discovery of his humanitarian activities during the 1980s and 1990s, Bingham has been recognized by the United Nations(!!!!), and in June 2002 he was honored by the American Foreign Service Association(!!!!) with a special award for 'constructive dissent.' "



Can't beat that, Bro!



Except maybe the guy that solved the "type of table" debate that torpedoed the US-NVA peace talks for so long.

 

[Buzglyd]

Constructive dissent is code for "he hated America."

" New **** Mann Commemorative Stamp and Coin Minted and Printed:...bwaww hahahahahaa...

 

[Fenton]

Oddly enough, **** Mann is my UPS driver's step father.

 

[Buzglyd]

The Isle of Lucy is releasing Fred and Ethel Mertz stamps I hear.

 

[longride]

Will the Suzuki M109 commemorative stamp and coin be coming out soon? I would buy up all those in a hot minute.

 

[sarnali2]

get in line pal...

 

[sarnali2]

If they want to greatest mo'sikkle racer of all time they need Barry Sheene and his Suzuki,



not one of them poop-barge ME109's either, A real deal 500 two stroke.

 

[seruzawa]

Right on. Bring back the two-strokes with 1,000rpm wide powerbands. Seperate the men from the boyz.

 

[seruzawa]

They are waiting for the 45th anniversary of Suzuki's Import Charter. Should be a real swingin' gig. Olivia Newton-John and the BeeGees are going to perform I hear.

 

[mscuddy]

Nah, Barely Manenough is on the bill for that gig.

 

[cruiz-euro]

Whether this qualifies as "dissent" is debatable

[cruiz-euro]

What happened to Elton John? I heard he was the top name for important biker events

[seruzawa]
