Earlier I blogged about how poor a design we got form the Post Office for the 100th anniversary of Scouting. I didn’t think they could be any worse but I was wrong. I bought some of the stamps the other day. Here’s the write-up on the back:

Since the creation of the international youth scouting movement some 100 years ago, hunreds of millions of children have benefitted from ooportunities for adventure, skill building, leadership, personal development, and community service provided by scouting organizations.

Normally I see “scouting” capitalized when we’re talking about the movement. It is the 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America. The organization that helped with raising 100s of billions of dollars (in today’s dollars) of war bonds during WWI, providing food and supplies during WWII, providing the most service hours of any organization during the recent volunteer campaigns. The political correctness crowd has taken over the US Post Office. What a shame. Maybe we should not be surprised they’re a failing organization.
