Yours arrived in a week?

I sent my postcard more then a week ago, and it appears to have not arrived yet

If it hasn't arrived tomorrow, I will post another.

That's strange, your postcard should be here. I'm going to search in my "paper trash" now !

[edit : Sorry but not found in the trash
I'll PM you tomorrow if the card is not here !]

From the posting dates on mine it took ten days for it to arrive, and I dropped it off at the post office. Your mail could just be slow.

Another one by Atari Smeghead/AtariAge (6/30)

@Atari SmegHead : Funny thing, your postcard was under an ad for a new local store called ..."Michigan"

Hey, I'm glad it arrived! It took about a week... not bad.

Um, you have a Michigan store? That's interesting, never heard of such a thing. What do they sell, I wonder? (If it's anything like our weather, the store inventory might change several times a day.)

Cheers,
Smeg

"Michigan" is just the name of the store (they sold table, light, tools, ... ).

The ad I've received with your postcard ... I've never heard of this store before, that's why it's so funny :


The website of this brand : Michigan

Oh, I see! Seems a strange name for a furniture store. Do they not realize how bad things are in Michigan?

Okay, now I understand. That is funny and ironic timing.

Cheers,
Smeg

I sent mine on a Tuesday, directly from the main post office in Lansing, Michigan, and it arrived there on the next Monday. It being the main PO probably cut a couple of days off the transit time.

I was a bit worried my sloppy handwriting would be my downfall, but luckily they figured it out.

If you haven't already, you should take a look at the postcard pics on the website...

http://dothesame.jag...org/contest.php

There are some great ones! I especially liked the ones from Im_Reg (very funny commentary!), KzA (I hope that wasn't an original collectors item!), ECWfan and of course mine.

Thanks again for doing this for us fans!

Cheers,

Apart from mine (thanks for the comment) I like the Hula Hoop and Garfield ones. Can anyone translate what Garfield is saying please?

Thanks I wondered that, too. Google Translation didn't do much with it.
