um, no, **Edward** , since the victim in question has already met you, I can’t take the chance that she’d remember you. (She was with me and my daughter when we met you in Jax for dinner.) Now, if you want to send those pics to me, I’ll frame them and hang then with pride, but all the victim should get are anonymous postcards. Sorry to burst your bubble there… ---

Honestly, it doesn’t matter where the cards come from. The whole point is that she get a whole bunch of them. Oh, and that she never knows what led to the arrival of the cards… ---

I’m in an obscure Tennessee town that doesn’t have its own postcards. But as soon as I can procure one, it’ll be in the mail. Email on the way. ---

OK, the machine is in motion - the email with the .jpg and the instructions has been sent. YAY! I’ll probably start a new thread linked to this one once the cards start arriving. My daughter said at the least, she’ll try to tell me which ones come, if she can’t come up with a reason to have her friend show them to me. We shall see. May I just say that youse guys are the greatest!! Also, it’s not too late for anyone else who wants to play - I’ll just send the email out again! Don’t miss out on the Prank of the Century!!! OK, maybe that’s just a bit exaggerated… ---

Wow, that was quick! Well, my card is ready and waiting for the postman tomorrow here at work. I’m going to visit some relatives in Arkansas this weekend, so I’ve got a sticker ready for a second postcard from there. I must say, your daughter is an evil genius! 🙂 ---
