Page 1 of 2 1 2 > Topic Options #56757 - 02/13/02 03:05 PM "Trading" "Post" AnnaStrophic Carpal Tunnel Registered: 03/15/00 Posts: 6511 Loc: lower upstate New York From time to time, some of us have offered to send books, magazines, etc to others. I propose we set up a little thread here for such friendly acts. This isn't word-related, but. My aunt, who lives near Salt Lake City, sent us two Olympics pins. I understand these are collectibes/ables (did we ever decide which, Jackie?) but here they would just gather dust. Would anyone like them? Top #56758 - 02/13/02 03:31 PM Re: Collectibles Faldage Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/01/00 Posts: 13667 Collect, fr. Lat. com + legere. Not first conjugation, therefore, collectible.

E me a snail address and I'll send it to you. Top #56760 - 02/13/02 03:45 PM .

It's non-inflatable but tiny. I wouldn't have offered otherwise [counting my shekels...] Top #56762 - 02/13/02 04:10 PM Re: "Trading" "Post" Faldage Carpal Tunnel Registered: 12/01/00 Posts: 13667 The globe is the one I mentioned elsewhere as being the one that proves that south is down. We'll send it to you so that you can destroy the evidence. It also proves some other rather embarrassing things about the southern hemisphere, but I'm too delicate to announce them here Top #56763 - 02/13/02 11:39 PM Re Mussticks and Book stales old hand Registered: 11/13/00 Posts: 866 Loc: Perth, Western Australia During my recent "partial" absence (still had periodic access to the web) musk sticks and a book were promised to various folk. I haven't forgotten - just working through a couple of weeks of lost priorities. I've kept the PM's with the addresses etc and will get onto the matter in the next few days. First need to find out whether I can export musk sticks. I'm worried that Customs will get me either for illegal export of movable cultural heritage (aside - no joking matter - legislation that ruined one of my friend's family life) or that the US may not allow food imports through the post.... Contact me again (PM is fine) anybody who wants to add their name to the recipients' list. BTW I think I'll be doing it for love and am happy to do so. Mucking around with A$1.39 pp is not worth the bother. I'll speak up if it looks like the postage is too unwieldy - especially if you want said items quick (ie faster than sea mail). stales Top #56764 - 02/14/02 08:29 AM Re: Re Mussticks and Book maverick Carpal Tunnel Registered: 09/15/00 Posts: 4757 mushsticks handled by seamen? ~ this gets wusser and wusser Top #56765 - 02/14/02 11:17 AM Re: Re Mussticks and Book Keiva Carpal Tunnel Registered: 08/04/01 Posts: 2605 this gets wusser and wusser or depending on your viewpoint, better & better?

Cap K sent me a map last year that definitely showed south was up. It makes me a little queezy to look at it though cause Canada is way down at bottom and it looks like all the water is going to fall out of Hudson's Bay.

You can't be Mr. Arrogant Bastard OR Mrs Promiscuous. Come, we'll come up with some good gossip-worthy character trait for you. You got any bad habits we can build on?
