i am leaving for work now, and i am going to drop my big stack of postcards in the mailbox at the end of my street.

smoove operator, Wednesday, 14 January 2009 18:04 (fifteen years ago) link

thanks smoove! great postcard, and even a funny message on the back. the scan is kind of shitty, but so is my scanner. but then maybe it's possible to get a better image and i don't know how, so maybe it's just a case of a shitty user.

I want a lingbert post card!

tehresa, Saturday, 17 January 2009 03:55 (fifteen years ago) link

aw <3 guys!

tza, yrs should be there soooooon! i mailed them all the same day!

smoove operator, Saturday, 17 January 2009 05:44 (fifteen years ago) link

haha those GPP broadsides: i think i accidentally sent my ('operative's') copy to some people instead of the numbered ones

smoove operator, Saturday, 17 January 2009 05:45 (fifteen years ago) link

Thanks, smoove! It may be there now but I haven't been home since Sunday! Will find out tomorrow!

tehresa, Saturday, 17 January 2009 06:03 (fifteen years ago) link

i keep expecting this thread to be revived with postcard scans but it keeps not happening why

Lingbert, Monday, 19 January 2009 06:39 (fifteen years ago) link

why bcz ur scanner broke

trippin hard on that background

newjioke (jergins), Monday, 19 January 2009 07:19 (fifteen years ago) link

it's my cutting mat for bookbinding! it's huge!

smoove operator, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:33 (fifteen years ago) link

that background

Lingbert, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link

also sorry about 4 in a row. i was hoping they'd show up 2 next to each other.

Lingbert, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:36 (fifteen years ago) link

did that fix it?

lxy, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:39 (fifteen years ago) link

no, it's still 4 in a row. i was thinking it might look neat as a solid 2 x 2 block, but it really isn't that important and probably wouldn't be extra mind-blowing.

Lingbert, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:42 (fifteen years ago) link

4 in a column, i mean

Lingbert, Monday, 19 January 2009 16:42 (fifteen years ago) link

tehresa, Wednesday, 21 January 2009 14:29 (fifteen years ago) link

thank you again, ruby.

i'm not totally in love with any of those GPP poems (every time i vote for the next run of broadsides, practically none of the poets i choose make it in), but i think the designs are great, and they're all letterpress-printed by hand, and the idea behind the GPP is pretty awesome.

smoove operator, Saturday, 24 January 2009 19:43 (fifteen years ago) link

thank you, ruby! your postcard brightened my day :)

aw yay!

smoove operator, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:10 (fifteen years ago) link

i <3 finding stuff in my letterbox when i get home

smoove operator, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:10 (fifteen years ago) link

in all honesty, it's probably been there for a while and the mail just didn't get checked, but to see it on my table when i came in tonight was really a wonderful treat that i needed today of all days so i'm glad i couldn't find the key and my roommates are lazy.

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:14 (fifteen years ago) link

also: how did you originally spell my name wrong? lol

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:17 (fifteen years ago) link

oh i can't remember - i always forget if it's teh or the!

smoove operator, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:22 (fifteen years ago) link

he, he so you went with tehrza! nice touch on apt number, btw!

tehresa, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:25 (fifteen years ago) link

what did i put? i can't remember! i wrote about 10 in one day

smoove operator, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:32 (fifteen years ago) link

i promise the next round of postcards are going to be cooler, tho - like, more textured and handmade, and stuff

smoove operator, Wednesday, 28 January 2009 04:32 (fifteen years ago) link

i almost bought some cheesy nyc cards at the drug store tonight but then i figured maybe i should wait a while since sefap cards went out not that long ago.

it said "Apt 1 (one)"
