blather_journey_envelope_project notme for reference see: new_blather_journey_book_project blather_big_fat_envelope_project i am starting 'a big fat envelope' which basically means: 1) i'm going to take some paper and scribble on it, words/drawings/anything probably 1-5 pages. 2) i'm gonna put it in a big envelope and hopefully send it to the first person on the list 3) when that skite receives the envelope, they can look/read and add a page/some pages, re-envelope all of it and send it along to the next skite on the list yes, we need a list. please sign up. the more people the merrier! we want to keep postage low, so please do not add any really heavy paper or cardboard. if you are wanting to add anything else besides paper, make sure it is flat and lightweight. also, remember this is crossing international borders, so nothing too illegal please. postal addresses should be sent between skites as the list progresses. make sure you have a correct email address available to the blatherverse so you can be contacted. ?wondering how this will be done? here is the plan: 1) i will contact the first person on the list to get their postal address and then i will send them the envelope. 2) that next person contacts the next person on the list after his/herself and sends the envelope to this next person. 3) then that next person contacts the next person (and so on, etc.) please do not send the envelope back to the person you got it from. ?confused? any questions? comments? please add them here, or email me: is_mise_mon@yahoo.ca 040529 ... notme please add your name/email to: blatherjourneyenvelopeprojectlist 040529 ... minnesota_chris I like my box idea under new_blather_journey_book_project better. Your idea is like blather, except expensive and bulky, and it'll work until someone gets too lazy to mail it on, and then it stops, kinda like the last one. 040529 ... notme anyone who has a scanner can add pictures of the project to: http://ca.photos.yahoo.com/journeyenvelope user id: journeyenvelope password: rehtalb 040529 ... notme well it doesn't have to be expensive and bulky. i like your idea too, but i think it could actually be more expensive. anyway, this isn't a competetion of ideas here. if you want to start a box, start a box! no one is stopping you. 040529 ... notme competetion=competition? 040529 ... notme if someone ends up getting the envelope but can't afford to send it to the next person, they can email me with their address and i will send them the money for postage. i am actually kinda poor, but i want this to succeed, so...let me know. 040529 ... notme we should set a maximum page limit to keep costs down how does five sound? 040529 ... notme . ball is rolling . 040530 ... notme please add your name/email to: blatherjourneyenvelopeprojectlist 040530 ... notme alright i've pretty much got together what i'm sending will mail it on monday so it shouldn't be too long before x gets it 040604 ... x wooo! i promise to do my part and send it along promptly. 040604 ... Squalidangel It's something I would roll up pennies for. 040604 ... notme well monday became wednesday somehow, but it's on its way now. 040609 ... Borealis if anyone was tracking the progress of the blather envelope..the pretty green shiny thing showed up on my doorstep this morning. *smiles* ethereal and myself will be stuffing her full of goodies. 040712 ... kookaburra yay!!! im gettin it next!!! 040713 ... kookaburra i still havent got this... has it been sent? *goes to check her mailbox yet again* goodness, im like those old women who check their mail fifty times a day 040724 ... Borealis sorry kook..between puredream and myself..its taking a while..I'm pretty sure she has it at this point.. 040725 ... uow status? 040810 ... lucky lucky is finished with it. Borealis has to complete the loose ties and we shall send away. 040811 ... kookaburra yay! i'll be ready :) 040811 ... Borealis um...might be ready tomorrow actually... 040812 ... kookaburra well, if you havent sent this yet... please dont send it im scared that my parents will find it and questions will be asked and little birdies will get in trouble. however, if it has already been sent...nothing i can do right? i'll send it along if its still my little secret. 040814 ... Borealis wait..whats this? you don't want it? I raped one of my bits with a laminator...it was an attempt to make odd bits of paper stick together in spite of disagreeing textures... like I said. raped. whoever sees her will laugh. :) 040814 ... uow um? zappening? 040925 ... jane is there a copy of the list order that i dont know about? 040925 ... does this help? blatherjourneyenvelopeprojectlist 040925 ... oops oh wait, no that probably doesn't help. 040925 ... uow so kookie didn't want the envelope?, and does borealis still have it then? 040925 ... uow is ambermoon still around? i think pete is next after her, but if she is no longer participating then it should be sent to pete next,... if that hasn't happened yet? 040925 ... . borealis gave it to ethereal/lucky/puredream and hasn't seen it since. 040926 ... pete i've heard nothing 040926 ... uow okay then. hopefully lucky/puredream/ethereal knows what's going on then. 040926 ... from now on well i guess this died. 041028 ... *tattletale* puredream has it... its on her table..I SAW it... 041028 ... somebody alright already. I'll send it to Pete. 041028 ... pete do you have my new address? 041028 ... from now on i think i noticed ambermoon blathe recently 041028 ... falling_alone how do you get added onto the list? jelly_belly_2000_2001@yahoo.com 041029 ... pete you add your name at the bottom of this blathe blatherjourneyenvelopeprojectlist 041029 ... monee so, pete says it's on his way to him,... that's good_news. but somehow ambermoon's place in line got mixed up, so...i think ambermoon should be next after pete...if that's okay with y'all. the order would now then be: pete to ambermoon, ambermoon to Squalidangel, Squalidangel to Doar Doar to jane, jane to u24, u24 to stork_daddy, stork_daddy to globalfruitbat, globalfruitbat to mourninglight, mourninglight to nighean_siofra, nighean_siofra to Jeca... not sure if realistic_optimist was wanting to participate as well, but his name is on the listpage, so if he does, he's after Jeca. if anyone in the list has decided not to participate or can't be contacted, then the envelope should go to the person who is next after them on the list. 050103 ... u24 so what's going on with this at the moment? 050111 ... Globalfruitbat put this on the other page, but I'll put it here too... new e-mail: sarahberland@gmail.com 050111 ... pete i hear that it is on its way to me from ethereal/lucky/autumn/eclipse/ect 050111 ... sahba waiting 050206 ... realistic optimist i was wanting to! yay for being on the list! *much dancing* 050206 ... . . 050404 ... . ? 050427 ... . ? 050515 ... anomalous if this has gotten lost i propose we restart it with the next person on the list 050515 ... u24 bing. 050601 ... skyburst777 ok then, let's start it again? 050602 ... ethereal/meg/puredream/lucky/autumn/eclipse Hold On. I'm sorry. I'll send it to Pete tomorrow. No need to start again... 050602 ... nomme) ok... 050602 ... palm I sent it. Can you forgive me? 050603 ... nomme : ) don't know bout everyone else but i certainly can! i'm very slow at getting things in the mail these_years 050603 ... pete i have it, it smells like chocolate 050610 ... skyburst777 i was thinking, maybe it's not good to scan it and put it online cause then it wouldn't be as exciting to someone when they get it if they've already seen it. so, yeah. i don't know. glad it's on the go again. 050610 ... nom) ? 051017 ... pete i still have it... somewhere *hangs head* nothings been added yet, creativity has been on a 8 month lull 051018 ... . bing. 060123 ... jane i think u24 should cut me in line, because it doesn't make any sense to send the thing from sacramento to england back to sacramento 060124 ... daxle I parted ways with the envelope 1.5 years ago and I'd be curious to see the contents scanned. Those who wanted to be surprised could of course not look. 060124 ... nom ok. 060124 ... nineteen I am still waiting in line, though my name has changed from eighteen to nineteen. (though it isn't so apparent, I am still a blatherskite. I just read much more nowadays...perhaps to make up for my rampant posting when I first stumbled onto blather as yummychuckle) 060124 ... u24 is happy to jump ahead of jane. 060125 ... nom how's it goin pete? 060208 ... u24 daxle; I have a scanner so when I get it, I'll scan it and put it somewhere for you to peek at :-) 060507 ... pete i'm still poor and can't afford postage.. but i start working for the government in a few weeks... so june... man, I've had this thing for a year 060507 ... nom do you need postage pete? 060713 ... nom if you still have it i mean...and you're still poor 060713 ... nom does it still smell like chocolate? 060713 ... twenty status? does it exist? 061030 ... pete status: in pete's closet. i don't know who is next on the list may have to scrounge up some change to get it any where. first i want to pay tuition, if that is financially possible. heh. 061031 ... pete i'm not actually that poor, i'm just engaged in a perpetual war with the provincial student loan agency over there definition of "need". when i start the second job (hopefully soon) i'll be in better shape (at least when it comes to paying the bills, maybe not academically) 061031 ... stork daddy am i still on the list? i'll have it for another year if you send it to me. 061031 ... jane oh no you won't. i'm going to pillage your willage if you try to keep it. 061031 ... nom i could send you postage pete, if you email me your address nom(dot)mon(at)gmail.com 061031 ... pete Oh I have enough change for postage most places.. I think the biggest thing is the next person in line has never been figured out. i think a few people bellow me are no longer active if i have an address i can send something out 061031 ... nom well it should go to doar if ambermoon and/or Squalidangel aren't still participating in the project. have you tried contacting ambermoon pete? 061101 ... u24 if dannyH (or anyone else from the UK) wants in, he should probably come in before/after me. 061102 ... pete i did, a little while ago, but the project drifts in and out of my mind as life piles up and demands all of my attention for months at a time 061102 ... nom ok well maybe it should just go to doar and he can try ambermoon or squalidangel and if they're not in we'll take it from there 061102 ... nom how does that sound pete and doar and everyone? 061102 ... pete i'll contact doar in a day or two (likely a day, gota finish this funding app before anything else happens) cheers 061103 what's it to you? who go blather from
