| I forgot to mention this the other day, but on Thursday, my daughter received a letter in the mail...addressed to her, and her only. It had 3 or more stamps on it, (lol, someone obviously raided their childhood stamp collected just to send my daughter a news-paper clipping)..... it had been cut with a pair of zig-zag scissors, (perhaps who ever sent it is into decorative paper or scrapbook art)...and keywords had been highlighted with a fluorescent texta, ...the article was for some stress relief medication... some herbal shit. Anyway, the writing was definitely that of a female, some try hard who almost calligraphed it I'm sure....(you know those special people who try to make themselves feel really important by writing ostentatiously, too much time on their hands i'd say....one hand on their pen, the other on their.... never mind....anyway, at first my daughter was quite scared, as it didn't have a name, and I knew it was either from Roo or kez ... trying to spook me again..lol.....when I thought quick and told her that this was like spam, but for your letterbox, that people, companies get our names off a database and just auto generate spam/advertisement to get people to buy their products. Kinda of a really sneaky and clever way of marketing their product. She said, "Oh, ok," then preceded to take it to her room and placed it in her special things box, because she hasn't received a letter since easter, (not a real letter sent to her by actual mail) given most of her friends email her these days. So thankyou to whoever it was, it was a lovely gesture, and you made my daughters afternoon. | |

| Now given the bother the person went to in order to send her a newspaper clipping, 3 stamps, zig-zag scissors, dramatic handwriting, I'm wondering if I take a photo of it, and put the screen shot up on this board, would one of you recognise it? .... | |

open the doors open the windows there are peeeeeeeeple outt there Yes, and I normally send cards, and letters to my friends and family also, only they aren't to virtual strangers I have stalked off the net. Take some stress leave, I think you need the break...(lame pun intended) | |
