Package-heavy day today (mostly things I ordered myself), but by far the most exciting thing I got was this parcel from GonzoRonin: The card combines two of my favorite things: bourbon and sheep! The comic book is wonderfully terrible as well, thank you!

I never get mail and don't have very many friends, so getting Christmas cards from goons is one of the few things I do have.  I'm headed to Costco later today to buy stamps (I don't fool around) and I'll be mailing out some cards myself. Jeremiah C. 8303 Valley Ave Juneau, AK 99801

Jessica 1910 W 1st St, Apt 7 Ankeny, IA 50023 USA Last year and the summer before I was pretty active with goon mail, not so much this year but there are a few leftover boxes from clearance sales in a closet somewhere. I don't have many friends and my family are poop-faces. So maybe someone ~lucky~ will get halloween stickers and cat fur in the mail.

I'm sneezing already, just thinking of all the lovely cat fur! I sent out a few cards last week, and bought more stamps. So far 20 lucky(?) US goons will be getting something, and 10 international goons! I actually have to buy more cards now..

Just got my first holiday card from partyhat She wrote a lovely paragraph for our daughter stating how she shouldn't be afraid of Santa and gave us a Santa Silly Band.  Thanks! I'm currently scrounging up some change to send out a few more. This is kind of addicting.

I would love to do a candy exchange if anyone is interested in the wild world of Japanese candy that isn't Pocky! (or Pocky, if that's your thing.) I sent out a bunch of Christmas cards, and now I'm writing a poignant love story across the back of a bunch of post cards that will be sent all over the world. Goon mail is the best!

Little late on my part, but glad to hear it!! In other news, guess who just got Christmas cards so cheap, the envelopes don't even seal right?  And now guess who's getting those cards in the mail... Terrible Christmas card season has officially opened.

Hey, I've been having a pretty poo poo past few months, I really would appreciate being a part of this. Alexander Griffin 4313 Center Key Road Apt. 2628 Winter Park, FL 32792 USA It can be video game related, goon related, NWS, anything. I'll have to think of something special to send out.

I'll start with Bengy since he replied first. How does that sound? Unexpected Road, is there anything in particular you'd like to request? Or shall I just go with what I consider to be Scottish candy? I am excited!

Take your time with the exchange; it'll give me time to see what kind of candy he misses from Scotland. What would you like in return? I have access to American candies (obviously) as well as German candy.

Mailed out a couple of things today. Also got some stupid looking Kansas themed postcards, so some of you will probably be getting some of those in the mail shortly. They're not very Christmassy, maybe I'll draw Santa hats on the tornados.

Also, by no means limit yourself to those snail things. I lurve me some weird, weird poo poo. I'll be hitting up a mercado by the weekend, so expect to see something within the next couple of weeks. Cards went in the mail this afternoon! I chose my recipients completely at random, and strangely, most of them either didn't want NWS or didn't specify whether or not it was okay, so I played it safe and cutesy. I had a really fun and gross idea I wanted to implement, so if anyone here would like to be visually assaulted by their holiday cheer, let me know. I would love for at least one person to share my creative joy.

Also, though this is by no means an extensive list, I sent out my cards today...ironically, Momma Valet paid for the postage for them. It came to $18 or someodd. So! Off the top of my head, here are the people who should expect mail from me! Though! Like I said, I don't remember all of the peoples, so some people will be getting surprise mail!

HOLY CATS! Thank you Mizufusion and Psykoguy for the lovely "generic holiday sentiment!" I honestly never expected to get anything in return. This was a wonderful surprise! I happened to be babysitting today, so I was able to share some of the stickers with a 3-year old who was very much thrilled. I also asked him what the paper crane's name was and he said to call it George. This thread makes me want to get a P.O. box more than ever now. Goon mail is the best mail.

I am totally craving some Nerds, as I can't get enough of them. I already asked Bengy for some, but seriously they are my favourite thing and you just can't get them over here. Other than that I'd be happy with anything! Will let you know when I am going to be getting your package ready.
