/lit/, I think we should be pen pals. I want to write something that isn't an email, text, or instant message. I want to feel that 19th century boredom that forced everyone to write long ass correspondences about absolutely nothing. And I also really enjoy picking up a letter addressed to me that isn't junk mail/bills.

If you're in on this, post your address and a few things you'll probably write about in your first letter. I'll begin:

S. MacDonald
171-31 Ashby Avenue
Flushing, NY 11358-3820

Will probably write about how I'm beginning to get into jogging, my thoughts on The Count of Monte Cristo (once I'm finished with that beast), and my hopes to eventually man up by the end of the summer and get over my fears of this: http://hikethewhites.com/huntington/headwall01.jpg to finally climb Huntingtons Ravine. Might also discuss my love life a bit if I can't fill an entire page.

>> No.641794

I was considering putting in a fake name and address for a pretend eager beaver bump, but I didn't, because I respect you guys. Now help a brother out, and post some addresses! If you have a post office box at least, you don't even have to fear that one of us will come stalking in the night to kill or just watch you since we won't actually know where you live. Just the general area.

The euro question is fairly easy to answer. Europe does not have a homogeneous economy, or taxrate for that matter, and so the rate of the euro can't be adjusted to fit the state of the country. This can be seen in Greece at the moment, where changing rates would cause a major collapse in Germany.

Why do Americans miss out the "to" in "writing to"? For example, "I'm writing you" sounds like either the start of "I'm writing you a poem" or it sounds as if the person is something themselves to be written like a story.
