That's kind of what I'm hoping won't happen if I do in fact
spend any time adding a cool factor to ours.

Those are some of the ideas I'm looking for.

I don't even need one. The mailman comes right to the
door. But I picked one up at a garage sale for $5 which
seemed pretty fair all things considering, like logistics.
Anyways. Since I've got this thing I figured I'll put it to
use and set it out at the road. I just don't want a plain
US post box on a post, when it could be something cool.
