Noooooo, Mr. No Clue Boy sent me a stick man drawing on the back of his post card. I remember hearing about you drawing special ones. Sadly, I wasn’t one of the people who got one from you. I’m willing to compare your stick man drawing abilities to NoClueBoy’s. 🙂 Feel free to send me one of your post cards. I love mail too. Oh, but I moved. So if you really really want to send me a post card, email me and I can give you my new and improved addresss. Since I’m lacking wall decoration in my new place, I plan on getting something to stick all the cards I received on the wall in one room. Hopefully, we’ll get to do another post card exchange and I can build on my small colleciton. ---

Do you realise how hard is to buy postcards in the OKC? Okay, I just procrastinated. But I figured it would help liven up the Summer doldrums, don’t ya know… The stick figure is Mr Onionhead. A DJ name I used to work under. Quack. ---

> [@NoClueBoy](#): > > Do you realise how hard is to buy postcards in the OKC? Actually, yes! 😛 I went to, I kid you not, twelve hotels before I finally found half-decent postcards. The only place I succeeded at was a rich hotel downtown with a very expensive gift shop, but they had a wonderful selection! ---

Oh no! I regret to inform you **NoClueBoy** that if you did in fact send a post card to me, it will get lost in to the mail abyss. I no longer live at that address (in fact, it no longer exists I believe). So, if you haven’t sent that one yet, don’t waste the money on a stamp… If we do another postcard exchange, you can all look forward to receiving mail from New Zealand as I leave in less than a week to study there for a year… ---

Okay, okay, I’m within the three month response time! Just wanted to praise **Basandre** for keeping in touch. Her postcard had a recipe for prickly pear jelly, and she sent me some juice, now that the prickly pears are in season. I sent her some of my mother’s watermelon rind pickles. Today my mom and I cooked up the jelly and have five pretty jars of red jelly. I’m going to bake some fresh bread to go with it. Nyah, nyah, I have it and you don’t! 😛 ---

Didn’t see this thread till now… email sent, if I’m not horribly late already. (life kept getting in the way, go figure) If you want postcards from Vancouver, I’m your woman. 😉 ---

**Flamsterette** , I hate to tell you this but the whole thing is over. When I mentioned the three month response time, I meant it was less than three months since the last posting to the thread. The hamsters have to work overtime when we resurrect old threads. But I’ll mail you a postcard from Kansas if I get your address! 😛 A good idea never dies. ---

HEY! We could do a pre-Xmas mid Autumn card exchange! Maybe after the FTSFSIIIMM ends, I’ll start one. ---

Hmm… apparently they don’t allow posts that are in all caps. Let’s try it again… FTSFSIIIMM??? There we go… much better now. 🙂 ---

Ah, thanks. I don’t think I have the requisite chops for such a thing, not being heavily into sci-fi myself. But good luck with it! ---
