Post by: nkotb on March 12, 2007, 04:23:00 pm: EXCELLENT! I heard a rumor about his a few weeks ago but hadn't seen the pictures! I did get my hands on a beat-up drink cooler from 7-11 a few years ago, but it didn't survive two of my movies, so I had to chuck it.

Post by: vansmack on March 12, 2007, 04:37:00 pm: I'm not putting any mail in one of those, and not because it will take Obi One to get past the restraining bolt.

Because those things are going to be stolen and my mail's going to be inside...

Post by: vansmack on March 20, 2007, 06:50:00 pm: Saw a couple of these in Chicago. They're sweet - even the one I saw sober.

There's one right across the street from Wrigley. The bolts were different, but not unmanageable....

Post by: Jaguar on March 21, 2007, 01:02:00 am: They look like they should be playing music since they have a bit of a jukebox look to them. Pop in a piece of mail and out pops a song.

Dupek, why don't you start a letter writing/song thread? I'd do it myself but I'm so far behind in here that I'm just not up for it.

came across them on addison across from wrigley, and somewhere on michigan ave. (i think corner of michigan and ontario).

after the parade, we went to grace o'malley's and finished at emmitts, which our cab driver informed us was a 5-0 bar.

you've never referred to a cop (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=five+o) as "5-0" before? would it be better if i wrote it five-o?
