Answer to Sandra's Newbie Questions and FREE BEER!

From: boxingoracle (sarcasticone@hotmail.com) | Date: 2004-09-22 15:44:34 UTC
Hi Sandra, my name is Melana! I am in a mental institution. I just
realized that I am the re-incarnation of Ethel Merman.
Letterboxing is great isn't it? You'll be swell, you'll be great,
gonna have the whole world on a plate. I have some answers for you:

Hitchhikers are people that you pick up on the side of the road.
Once you pick them up you can tie them to the front seat and make
them listen to your impersonations until they vomit, pass out, or
both.

I like to use toilet paper in my boxes. That way if finders forget
their stamps they can leave a different kind of artistic impression
for me.

I carry my supplies in my strait jacket. My arms are usually
strapped so tight to my back that I can shove just about anything in
there without fear of losing it. Well, there was that one time
where I burst into an elaborate song and dance number and lost my
ink pad....

Love,

Ethel

Hey Ethel, you forgot to mention that after you have the HH tied up,
you are supposed to drive straight to the nearest letterbox gathering
where you can pass him around and let everyone have their way with
him.

p.s. are you by any chance the Ethel who was incensed by that
streaker guy back in the 70's? It was probably just a nude
letterboxer.
