April 5th = Bette Davis Stamp Release Date



"To fulfill a dream, to be allowed to sweat over lonely labor,
to be given a chance to create, is the meat and potatoes of life.
The money is the gravy."

When will the US Post Office make an Elizabeth Bishop stamp? Or what about a Frank O'Hara stamp? I'd put that to my tongue! Oh god I can't believe I just wrote that!

Every gay man in America will be at the post office on April 5 furiously licking away. I'm sure Bette would have appreciated that.

I've been looking all over the web for confirmation of this. I know saturday is BD's 100th b'day. I know that the USPS is issuing a BD stamp. but I can't uncover anything official. guess I'll just have to go to a p.o. & hope for the best.
