I love real letters written by real people with penmanship I can barely decipher. It's a dying art.<BR/><BR/>Having said that, I hardly ever buy stamps and pay all my bills online. But there's nothing like opening your mailbox and finding mail from someone who thought enough to buy a card, put pen to paper, and afix the stamp.<BR/><BR/>And, for the record, this isn't any sort of guilt trip or subtle hint. Just me being a sucker for a simpler time.<BR/><BR/>L.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09176640352067647780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1950493094092785381.post-40930784125703486322008-10-16T10:43:00.000-04:002008-10-16T10:43:00.000-04:00I pay nothing on-line, other than the occasional P...I pay nothing on-line, other than the occasional Paypal for an auction win.<BR/><BR/>The Digital Age is great, until the machines break.<BR/><BR/>Fight the power.Big Johnnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15209173195100595815noreply@blogger.com
