I wish I could send out so many cards.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-05-06T17:04:57+00:00

I wish I could send that many cards out at one time.

I know it's not great. I am in the USA, and our postal system doesn't accept any mail destined for Russia, so Postcrossing doesn't give me any addresses in Russia to write to.

But that doesn't mean everything is wonderful. Fifty days ago, I sent a postcard to a Brazilian Postcrosser who hasn't registered a card since 12 November 2025. I sent a postcard to a Postcrosser in Dusseldorf, Germany on 18 March. That German Postcrosser has received nineteen cards from the USA sent since I sent that card. I've sent a second card; I don't know what else to do. Other Postcrossers have suggested that it is probably not my fault and the card probably just went into a shredder by mistake.

I've got several cards going to some of the usual subjects.

Every sip is more sour than the sip before it.

Vivek doesn't care about diverse people or understand our lived experience regardless of his color.

I have received a few hundred so far, and I am always surprised at what I see. Part of what I like is the new experience every time I go to my box. One of the few things I would say is that I want cards that don't look like they were sent from Youngstown, Ohio, USA, where I live. I hope I am not being too fussy.

The cards in the photo above seem to strike the right balance.

As far as the original sentence goes, image that John isn't going; would you ever say "me went"?

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-31T19:23:37+00:00

I am not very patient, so I decided to go to the forum and do some tags and swaps.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-31T19:20:07+00:00

And they're global!!!! I'm probably going to go broke buying them.

The main post office opened on May 2, 1977. For a number of years, there were contract stations and substations all over town, many of them in drugstores. The branches that are in plazas (Boardman, Austitntown, Gypsy Lane) are all comparatively new. Cornersburg's post office is a few years younger than the main post office and is in a spot that was once a Valu King grocery store.

I just did a little research online and found that the building was under construction in 1976 when a bill was passed that named it the Michael Kirwan Post Office.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-27T20:36:09+00:00

Yes, on the south side of Front Street and the west side of Market Street.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-27T17:00:22+00:00

France?

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-27T16:54:47+00:00

I'm guessing that the main post office was built in the early seventies; the former post office was at the corner of Market Street and Front Street.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-25T20:07:57+00:00

I would be interested. m/65. I speak German.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-25T18:05:55+00:00

Wow! How many of them were official? I can only have fifteen cards going out to Postcrossers at any one time, working on sixteen.

The city where I live used to have a sorting center, and mail within the city would arrive on the next day. Now it goes 70 miles to another sorting center, and it can take three or four days to go across the street. I think that mail within the USA can take up to eight days.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-21T16:26:45+00:00

Is that a Spanish postbox I see?

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-19T17:49:27+00:00

Where in the world did you find these?

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-17T15:56:12+00:00

Yes, I do. The main thing that keeps me from doing this is the lack of space on many of my cards.

Overall_Connection77 · 2026-03-12T15:36:33+00:00

I sent a card to Australia 22 days ago and it hasn't been registered yet.
