Sahara you are amazing for doing this! I'm gonna write a whole bunch of letters when I get home later tonight!

"You know, you ain't quite right."
"It's a popular theory."



That's exactly what I plan to do. My handwriting could qualify me to be a doctor it's so bad.

I got mine, too! It's kinda weird to get handwritten mail these days, and it put a smile on my face that's still there!
I plan on getting a bunch of postcards to start with...should be going out by the weekend!

Thank you again, Sahara, for this brilliant idea.

Don't thank me yet, let's see how this works out.


And I promise not to judge anyone's handwriting, if you promise not to judge my atrocious spelling.

Brown paper, white paper, heck, you could use pink paper with sparkly bits for all I care. It's for fun! Although now I am going to look for some brown paper!

I can't wait to start getting pen pal letters.

I got the email list last night, so I will be writing letters tonight.

I thought I was going to be expensive to write to. Then I spotted someone in Japan!

Really looking forward to this

I'm starting with postcards as well... ones from around where I live.

Hope to have a bunch out by the weekend.

Ooh, pink paper with sparkly bits... I'll have to go find some Hello Kitty paper to send you. Assuming my ego lets me buy the stuff, that is. *looks for big, manly emoticon* *doesn't see one, so goes with the closest one* (hey, it kinda looks like rambo. He was manly )

I got the list in the mail today, thanks. Time to start writing.

Holy moly!!

And who doesn't LOVE Hello Kitty!?

Ahem, I mean that gun-toting emoticon looks very manly.

Hmm... that thought hadn't quite occured to me yet. Oh well, such is life. I'll send you something, though. Even if the postage is expensive

Actually, I think it's slightly more expensive for me to mail overseas than it is for people to send it here (from the US, at least but I think that Europe is about the same assuming that I'm reading the postage chart right).

Letter (Japan -> US) 110 Yen (~$.96 US)
Postcard (Japan -> US) 70 Yen (~$.61 US)

Letter (US -> Japan) $.85 US
Postcard (US -> Japan) ???
