Anybody else remember elementary school where you gave out 27 valentines and got just as many? Perhaps we could do a SDMB version. I’m seeing people complaining about never getting any Valentines and I know I would be happy to send some out. I would be willing to set up an e-mail address, put togther lists and generally take care of things if there is any interest. I wouldn’t want anyone to have to send out more than…25 valentines or so, so if more people are interested I would want to split up groups. This is just a quick check to see if anyone wants to try it…I’ll check back later and if it looks promising I’ll set up a yahoo account. So what do you think? ---

racerx I’m pretty fond of it myself… _grin_ Thanks! Okay, I set up an [addy...sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com](mailto:addy...sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com). Drop me an e-mail with name/screen name and snail mail address. Oh! to clarify. I am thinking of basic little kid, tear on the dotted line boxed valentines, not individual Hallmark cards… ---

I think this a great idea. Your kindness speaks well of you. As usual. Unfortunately, despite several friendships here, there’s really only one person I want to give an SDMB valentine to. I’d mention her name, but she might get a swelled head. [sub]Despite the fact that she spelled “Valentine” wrong. And in the _title_[/sub] But while I might not be into the whole exchange thing, I’ll humbly offer to help you out, Kathryn, however I can. ---

Okay, I have gotten e-mails from Sapphire Bullet, MannyL, bouv, FPK, Arden Ranger, Kat, mega the roo and Trouble Again. I’ll let this go until Monday of next week and then I’ll send out a big mass e-mail to everyone. Thanks for signing up, people…I think its a cute idea, but have been known to have some really immature ideas of “cute” Dan, if you’re not going to be in my Valentine’s Day project I have no need of thee. I’ll be too busy. 😛 Seriously, I think I’ve got it handled. ---

You know, when I was a kid and we did this in grade school, I always thought it was quite a farce because I really don’t think most of those kids actually gave a damn about each other. They certainly didn’t act that way. This, on the other hand, actually makes sense, as I’ve come to care a great deal for this little community, and I’m sure many of you have too. So I’ll endorse the stamp buying frenzy that will ensue. [sub]The mailman is going to think I’m a real Casanova or something. _grin_[/sub] ---

Okay, I have addresses for Uncle Bill, racerx, Pandora and Grace. Please send me a snail me address to the yahoo address. My hotmail account listed does get to me, but I don’t want to screw this up, so I’d like all of this to go to the yahoo account. ([sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com](mailto:sdmbvalentines@yahoo.com)) Sorry if this sounds abnormally anal (especially from me) but I _really_ don’t want anyone to get lost. (It means I care…there are some professors who would die to see me sweat this hard to keep organised.) Like I said, I’m going to wrap this up around Monday, 29 January, and have everything sent out by the first of Feb. I hope. I also think this is going to be a lot of fun. I have crayons and glitter in my room, so I may be making valentines. ---

Are you saying you want us to resend our addresses? Or, are you asking that anyone who _hasn’t_ sent his/her address send it to the yahoo account? ---

No, Grace, if I said I have your address, I still have it. In two places. (I’ll probably screw up eventually, but I’m saving it for later.) [sub]I also transfered your addy to the yahoo account, but I’d like to keep everything in that account if possible. I won’t tell if you won’t…oops[/sub] I recieved an e-mail sans snail mail addy though, and thats not going to help… Okay, new people I’ve added include mrblue92, Narile, and msrobyn.
