Ask Ivy! F'n P-ness

From: poisoniivv (poisonivy@haveashittyday.com) | Date: 2004-02-24 13:14:28 UTC
Dear Poison Ivy, how do you count YOUR boxes?

Eagerly awaiting a reply,
The Count c/o Sesame Street.

Well Count,

If I found it, I count it as an F, even if I found it in my mailbox
or included in another box.

If I placed it, I count it as a P, even if I placed it in a mailbox,
an established box or in the hand of another boxer as an HH. (I
don't believe the way a stamp is passed into the LB community should
detract from the size of your P-ness.)

The only ones I don't include in my P or F count are exchanges,
travellers and event stamps.

For my own obsessive sake, I DO keep track of which F's happen to be
HH and Mystery, .......in case there's an audit. But my P-ness is
publicly displayed with my F-ness at wwwDOTpoisonivyDOT150mDOTcom

Poison Ivy P11 F122

This is a very clever piece of work. I hope that others enjoy the
sentiment and don't get testy. Personally, I had a ball.
