I received your painted envelope on Tuesday. Thank you. I'm glad that we're exchanging mail art. It's always a fun surprise to receive your creativity.
I understand your frustation at the situation in which you found yourself in 1997, Guido. As someone who doesn't drive now, (for medical reasons my drivers license was revoked) I realize how much that license gave me. Not only did it give me the freedom to be mobile, but it gave me a verified identity. I now have a state-issued id card that uses my old drivers license number, but clearly marks me as a non-driver.
I live in a beautiful country, Guido. Sadly, it is run by CRAZY people! GREEDY people! SELFISH people!
I continue to be confounded by the ways in my own country. Our forefathers built this nation on values and morals that seem no longer to exist, as greed and personal political agendas have taken over. I can't even watch the news anymore. I'm better off NOT knowing every play by play, as I become incensed and have no recourse.
there is a necessity to send a registered mail from/to my place because sometimes mail is going very long time (45 days as example) or can never be received.
also... sometimes mail is just disappearing. I don't receive it back and recepient doesn't receive it too. I think problem is in Latvian post offices not in others and to registered mail they behave differently, I hope.
The P.O must have had overtime from being off on Monday. An unusual delivery arrived last night after 8 PM/2000! The object is even more unusual, a painting from you with olafactory effects. The odiferous molecules and proteins waft softly up the stairway. Thank you Guido for your MayDay, To Rebel is a question of Fertility. Fantastic in every sense.
Look, there's another. The arrival of these works is a thrill. Amazing how the depiction of the dire can please. It has something to do with feeling understood in the world, at least occaisionally. Thank you Guido!
There was also this:
TIME 70 words connected with time for John Bennett by Guido Vermeulen can be read in different combinations
That was quite the auspicious day for it to arrive! I appreciate your pic post of it.... Hope you enjoyed my high flying fish as well! Look forward to some cyber consistency so I can get some pics up- Til then, see you in the mail!
Hi Guido thank you very much for tucehing base with me i must tell you the truth that i am new to mail art but i am willing to learn a thing or two from someone like you as life is a learning proces and you are never too old ( young ) to learn (smile ) thanks again
I received my lovely letter and mail art from you today. Thank you so much. And its my birthday. Somehow I think you must have known... Verrry interesting...

Hello, Guido I would like to invite you to participate in a video about Frida Kahlo, this is the second video about her You can e-mail: fatqueiroz2008@gmail.com
It will be a pleasure to your participation! a hug
The sideways slip into perfectionism postponed my acknowledgement to you. I wanted it to be very big and very good. So, now nevermind all that. Receiving these improves my spirit, Dank U.
Thanks for your friend request. Just getting to know my way around here. Looking forward to getting to know people and getting involved in some projects.
Gloria.
2002, All young Justin (Kalomba Mboyi) and his father want to do is sit down and enjoy watching a soccer game together...this simple act sparks a chain of events leading to Justin running from the law...In order to fight the system, however, he must enlist the help of a former anarchist, and together they'll need to apply the secret of … the Hop. Cast: Kalomba Mboyi, Jan Decleir... Director:Dominique Standaert
I think the risk is worth the visit. Zombie Kitty Kawaii! has visited many places that has had other cats and dogs and since she is a zombie, the worse that can happen is one of her limbs will drop off every so often. She requires no food or litter box.

Can I take that as a yes? :^)

Goede morgen, Guido!
Did you recently send me a collage postcard with '40' and 'Ray Johnson Fan Club' on it? The collage isn't really your style, but the 40 is.
It was posted from Belgium, without a sender's name, and so i'm wondering from whom it came.
Hope you are well.
Keep on Mail Arting!
