Comment
I concur with delight! Love the random anon in my mailbox! thank you FD Standpipe!
Great detective work, Brooke Cooks! Yes, it would be nice to reply to this mystery person. Maybe someday...
I also received a postcard, maybe the beginning of April. I Googled FD Standpipe, and I suspect the alias means, FIRE DEPARTMENT STANDPIPE. Not much to go on... Mine is 22/? where yours is 28/ ?. The words on my PC, are from a comedian and so are both of yours. I think the book is "Born Standing Up; A Comic's life", by Steve Martin. I do like the mystery, but I would also like to reply.
Barbargirl ~ thanks for sharing your post card. I would love to use the phrase "the plot thickens," but without additional clues I'm not sure it would be appropriate! :) Keep your eyes and ears open!
