Gee, I like this thread.

Maybe twenty years ago, I started buying a supply of greeting cards. I was finding that I disregarded a lot of occasions because I didn't have a card and stamps at hand, so I resolved to buy good cards whenever I found them at a good price. I get most of my cards at the dollar store, two for a buck, and they're just fine - so are the ones I get for free with charity solicitations. Since it hurts to write in cursive, I print two or three sentences by hand on the card, address the envelope by hand, and put it in the mail the next day. I find that people really appreciate my three-sentence cards, and my generous supply of cards and stamps gives me no excuse for procrastination.
