a nice gift of anthrax eh?
TLDR Please ?
Joke I like the idea a lot.
Very cool, Sent. There is nothing like getting a good, old fashioned, hadwritten letter. You might end up with a dozen or more pen pals, so you best be prepared!
Neat idea, Sent. Maddie and I have been sending each other letters since she has been away and it has fun looking forward to opening the mailbox every day.

You are going to live up to your name, eh? ;)
really diggin' the return to a physical medium and the symbol you're associating with this
i'm gonna guess you're using it as the shaka sign, but 6, the letter y, devil horns, or whatever else it could be is cool too

I still send out hand written letters to this day!
This is a great idea, Sent :3
I wonder if Sent's handwriting is god tier Spencerian or if he got an IBM selectric working ;). Regardless, I'm firing up my shredder just like Vesper.
I KID. SEND ME A LETTER BRUH. I've got all these papers and fountain pens that need to be used :P
I was just having a conversation the other day with someone how its almost shocking(in a good way) when you recieve a hand written letter this day and age. I don't have a nice fountain pen or elegant hand writing but I feel there's something almost visceral inscribing your thoughts on a nice peice of vellum :thumb:
So naturally I'm super stoked about this idea/project and can't wait to see what's next
Edit, missed Bunny's thread :) Nice idea.
Would it be wrong for me to post my mailing address here publicly?
I would love to get something other than bills or junk mail.

Just as a general precaution I'll always advise against posting your mailing address online publicly. Shoot me a PM. I'll order some more envelopes/cards and add some more people in this first round. ;)
This is a nice idea, and very community-oriented.
Are you inviting replies, by the way?
Just a little update. I've written about 20 of these. Unfortunately, it's been so long since I've sent a letter I forgot that there were these things called stamps. I have none. :blank: I gotta go grab some when I get a chance. More importantly, my grandfather is in the hospital in Taiwan and I might need to fly back at a moment's notice. The doctors aren't giving him much time so I'm checking tickets now.I got extra stamps, if need be I can send them to you, or you can send the letters to me and I can literally throw stamps on them and put them in the mail.
I know I have to ship out quite a few things to a few people (pay it forward, space bars, stickers, random crap discussed through PM, etc.) so this is sort of a general announcement that it may take longer than I said. I apologize. This goes for the blog, too. Not that I've been very regular with it but a few people are waiting on me to send them the google doc to fill out for the interview. I'll get to that as soon as possible.

I think this is truly the first out of the blue thing I've ever gotten from anyone here. Thanks Sent :thumb:
Due to the suckery of my handwriting (I know that is the point of this thread), I will employ one of my typewriters to help me with my response(s), as I will try to help keep the train going.
I will, however, sign my name with the new fountain pen Binge/Booper have helped me out with, so that will kinda count towards the purpose of this thread, right?
Pen pals and letter are more fun when mail goes both ways :) plus, love putting the typewriter to use!:eek:Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/SzI6wu4.jpg)

Oohhh, typewriter would be badass, yo. :thumb: You're under no obligation to respond, by the way. This is just for fun. :)

And we all know how terribly un-fun it is to be forced to write a letter to Sent. Right? Right?! :rolleyes:

Got mine a couple days ago. It was such a nice surprise to get this. Thanks Sent, this totally made my day. :)
Now I have to improve my hand writing so I can write back. :)

Seeing posts like this makes me so glad I finally am a part of Geekhack!
Sent, you are one cool dude! Makes me wish I still lived in SoCal.
I've been having a rough week at work, really tough month
Lack of sleep in the last week or so, 5 hours a night mostly
Brain can't function well
