Postcards:
1)Ad cards welcome (and encouraged)!! If there is too much writing on the back to fit an address and swap-info, feel free to send it in an envelope, even if the requirements are to send them naked.

2)I'm not crazy for US State/tourist PCs, but I understand that's all some have access to. If you can find them, your city at night, Union Station, or interesting buildings would be most appreciated.

3)I would prefer no stickers or ink stamps on the back.

Music: nine inch nails is a constant favorite. Otherwise, I'm in a musical rut. I also like TV on the Radio and Rasputina

I have no qualms about passing on things which aren't my cup of tea, but a partner would appreciate more. Please, please, please feel free to do the same with something I've sent you.

But, just because you send "extras" doesn't always guarantee that I will rate you with a heart. I give hearts for extra special packages, or extras that are obviously tailored to me. If it's just whatever thrown into the envelope, than I won't rate a heart.
