The change is designed to help trigger some much-needed revenue for the red ink-slathered Post Office and one of the first names kicked around nationally for consideration will probably do the trick. In fact, Talkers would be surprised if Charlie Sheen didn’t buy all his stamps immediately just for the chance to lick himself.

But what if the opportunity arose to not only create, but localize the stamps. Who would north Mecklenburg opt to honor?

We could pick a Carolina Panther, but individual player popularity tends to bounce around like a football depending on each week’s results. What about a Charlotte Bobcat? Okay, name one. A salute to Lake Norman’s namesake would be appropriate, but after all the squabbling around here when Hough High was named, Talkers think folks may be a little shy about going in and shouting out stamp orders for the guy it’s named after (you look it up).

The more Talkers think, the more they believe it’s better to honor the people who have proven, without a doubt, they are and will remain deserving. Right at this moment, with this weekend’s flag football event on the horizon and honoring a commitment to recognize people who lived life the right way, Talkers think for north Meck, a Kevin Carosa stamp would be, well, an awesome addition.
