In [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=246811) there are a few people who mention being able to send post cards from where they are. So I am proposing a post card exchange. If you are interested you can email me at misstee\_dawn@yahoo(dot)com. I can take names and addresses for a week or two and create lists to email back to people so they can send post cards to other dopers who wanted to participate. Any one in? ---

Ooooh this would be really neat. But how exactly is it going to work? Do you send a postcard to everybody or just one or two people? (I’m asking here instead of in email because I’m sure others will want to know as well) ---

We could do it like we did the Valentines exchange. Have a short list and the long list. On a short list you could have 5 or 10 people to send to, or you could go for the long list and mail a post card to everyone who signs up. ---

I was drunk and stoned about a month ago . . . then I got on ebay . . . it could have been worse, but what I ended up doing was purchasing four Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here post cards for about $20. I figure they’ll be collectors items??? Or I could just mail 'em I suppose. I’ll send ya’ an email in a minit ---
