A Sailfish Chain Round Robin Postcard

Greetings from Florida ...AND China...AND Indonesia...AND Malaysia!

This was a Chain Round Robin postcard I mailed to someone in China. They covered up my address and sent it to Malaysia... they in turn sent it to Indonesia who sent it back to me!

This was all done in 2018 but I bought the postcard in 2016.

The Jackalope and When To Milk It ...

The Jackalope

A native of the Western United States, the Jackalope is seldom if ever seen due to its intensive nature and lightning quick speed. It can only be hunted legally on the 31st day of June between sunrise and sunset. A permit must be obtained from your local AA. This fatty beast often mimics noises especially the voice of an intoxicated human. Legend has it that drinking Jackalope milk can drastically improve ones eyesight. The best time to milk a Jackalpe is after midnight, as it sleeps on its back, belly shining in the moonlight.

This postcard was mailed in 2015.
