As many grandchildren as I have, we have one of our bedrooms designated as "The Playroom", two PC's with restricted network access, crayons, coloring books, TV, DVD Player, VCR, Lego tables, etc ;-)

Like our "money", it is worth the paper it is printed on and not a nanocent more. Prolly 38 cents as postage.
Sorry, the "forever" stamps show the liberty bell. The flag stamp is an "ordinary" stamp.
Do not complain yet, the depression has BAERly started...
FALSE. "Forever" stamps ARE good for international mail; i have been using them since issue to send stuff to Ethiopia; zero problems.
What? You're the one who's enamored with lame western DVD's ;-)

Huh? How do you know how many you'll need on an envelope? While the rate inside the US went up by 2c the rate to Europe has been raised by 4c.
Quite an inflationary trend there at USPS. OTOH we still pay a whole lot less than Europeans do. Probably it would be smart to buy one truckload of forever stamps but I'm afraid the glue will give up after a few years.

And its getting better all the time. I went on a short holiday to Germany. I could use my debit card in almost every shop and restaurant. The people behind the counter look a bit puzzled at first because of the strange card. Especially in the German 'home depot' Bauhaus. I needed some tiles for the kitchen wall and they just had THE excellent ones. I guess they don't see many tourists.
It takes a real man to admin he doesn't need some of his stuff :-) I recently cleared out some old items and projects that I had obtained/designed over 15 years ago. Funny. When you get older, the stuff you build / designed yourself starts to break down.
Someone once told me that women are attached to their man, men are attached to their belongings. I think its true.
Failure does not prove something is impossible, failure simply
indicates you are not using the right tools...

Hey Joerg--you may've just come up with the perfect inflation-proof, defensive investment: stamps.
Buy a load now, sell in a couple years...

They have codecs for it. At the British Museum.

Per unit area, about the same as a 10 dollar bill, and climbing. There are specie of "forever stamps" that are sufficient postage for up to about 1-1/2 oz first class mail regardless of several subsequent price increases.
Slow to make backups, though.
