Just like Elvis, dead Steve Jobs to appear all over America in 2015

A highly-sensitive leaked US government document reveals Steve Jobs will appear all over America in 2015. The memo comes from the perforation-happy Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee, an agency “tasked with evaluating the merits of all stamp proposals.” The document, uncovered by the Washington Post, reveals that Jobs will be …

The difference being ...

Elvis Presley is alive and well and working as a news reporter for Indonesian state TV. I've seen him.

Obviously

"Jobs has not been sighted in obscure truck stops around the nation."

Well, he'd hardly be likely to, wouldn't he? Trendy coffee shops seem more his thing.

Of course the problem with that is, if he was sighted, his picture'd be on Facebook and Twitter before you could say 'rounded corners'.

Steve Jobs to appear...along with Science Fiction writers

Interesting, didn't know his autobiographers were so important......

Steve Jobs the idea thief?

The self-confessed IP thief (Good Artists Copy, Great Artists Steal) martyred by the country whose economy is now aiming to be heavily reliant on IP?

[David 45]

Some sort of god was he?

Oh, for goodness' sake! Not only is his former boyhood home being turned into some sort of shrine, but now his face on a stamp? Blimey - the bloke was only the boss of a company, not some sort of messiah who (allegedly) saved the world! This really will get the fanbois' hearts a-fluttering.

Why not just give the prick a sainthood then we can ignore him like all other religious icons?

(Apart from the St. BellEnd's bank holiday we will obviously have to get to allow fanboi knobjockeys a chance to worship at the Apple store altar of their choice for 24 hours)

No.

I will absolutely positively not buy or use a Steve Jobs stamp. No fucking way, no fucking how.

Thank heavens it's only stamps

I was imagining Steve Jobs tribute acts popping up all over the place.

The bill could be Glenn Miller followed by Buddy Holly then Elvis and to clear the place Steve Jobs.

It's a first-

The first rectangular stamp with rounded corners!

"This is for everyone"

Steve Jobs is somebody people will recognise.

He didn't get to send a message to the world from an Olympics Opening Ceremony

Are you sure??

Unlike Presley, Jobs has not been sighted in obscure truck stops around the nation.

I hear that there is a ghost at the intersection of I-280 and DeAnza Bvld. That's why the street is named Endless Loop.

Unlike Presley, Jobs has not been sighted in obscure truck stops around the nation.

But will you be able to go to Las Vegas and get a Steve Jobs lookalike to perform your wedding ceremony...?

No backside licking necessary

Not to be too picky, but the U.S. has been printing only pre-sticky stamps for years. You peel 'em off a slick backing. I suppose you could lick it, but make sure it doesn't stick to your tongue.
