I will gladly be pillaged by Wolram. I am going to attempt to find a store on campus today that sells postcards.wolram said:

I am glad you liked it! I look forward to checking my mail this evening. Maybe your card will have arrived.
Today I sent two more postcards out to U.S. PFers.

Poor MIH.
Dejectedly checking her empty mailbox, wondering where her postcards are.Do they deliver mail on Columbus Day where you live? (This has to be the stupidest holiday of the year. I broke out laughing the first time I worked somewhere that gave me Columbus Day off.)

On my desk. And it will be sent most likely tomorrow, as I will need to go to post office. But it may travel even several weeks, I have seen that before. Sorry, can't help it.
And at the moment any postcards sent to me will travel looooong. There is not a single postman working in my area, they all resigned. For the last two months mail is delivered once in every two or three weeks. I am getting three issues of a weekly magazine at once, all already out of date

Not yet, i want to go to Gottland to get some more, i hear the vikings buried loads or Arabic coins there.
But why are you angry with me for having some coins? they are not worth much.

Totally empty mailbox yesterday. Stupid Columbus. And I didn't even get the day off which is lame because technically I have a gummint job and should get all the extra holidays.

In whole Poland. Polish post is too large, too socialistic, with too many trade unions. Add to that that my local post office is awfully managed.
In fact my blood pressure goes up when I think about the institution, as large part of my income is from mail orders, so we better change the subject. Do you want a postcard? I have several more than I need. I can't promise it will get to you this year... oops, plan was to not think about it

They did, in the last town I lived - the capital of Ohio. Apparently, they don't have much respect for ol' Cristóbal there.BobG said:

Wow! My postman just now delivered mail and it's after 6:30 PM. (He was surly as usual - hungover, I suspect.)
I got your cute kitty postcard, Andre. THANK YOU!

For the record: 7 postcards dropped into the post box about 30 minutes ago 
Post office was full of people complaining that they are not getting their mail. They were giving their addresses, clerk moved to some other room to get back after 15 minutes with a bunch of letters. "This is all from your street, can you deliver to your neghbors?" Next client, same story, 15 minutes browsing. Penguins are better organized. I have just send my packets and postcards, I have no time today to wait longer, but if they will not bring my mail tomorrow, I will have to go there on Friday morning, as by then I will I need one of the letters that were sent to me. I really think we should throw this post away and start from scratch I passionately hate them, more and more every week.

Who is the biggest dummy in the whole wide world?
WOLRAM is,
why, because i put the wrong stamps on,
I have done them all again and put the correct stamps on
this time, i would not even have thought about the
cost of the stamp unless some asked me how much
it cost to send to America.

Our post office did not have enough USA value stamps, so MIH has two 50p one's,
they are horrible stamps but there is no choice.

Send me your address!
Instead of sending you a postcard, I'll send you a box of guns. Give them to the postal workers. They will eliminate each other. Then they can hire new, hopefully better, employees.
That's how we do it in the USA.
btw, would it be better if I FedEx you a postcard? I believe it's only 90 złotych.

I need a job, can you send me an application to be a post man instead of a postcard? I don't speak polish, but I can deliver mail faster than any nonexistent postman ever.
