Licking the Hulk

He may not hold political office, but wrestler "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan now has one thing Minnesota's Gov. Jesse "The Body" Ventura doesn't have: his own stamp. The Caribbean nation of St. Vincent on Monday introduced a series of legal tender stamps featuring eight World Championship Wrestling stars. Besides Hogan, the sheets feature wrestlers Sting, Bret Hart, Giant, Kevin Nash, Randy "Macho Man" Savage, Diamond Dallas Page and Goldberg. Stamps sheets, which cost $12.95 plus $3 shipping and handling, are available through America Remembers at 1-800-682-2291. "We are very excited to issues stamps of these heroes to children around the world," said Cheryl Hinds, the general manager of postal services for St. Vincent, in a statement. There really is a New World Order.
