re: #308 darthstar

I ordered something from a comic book once. Put $2.43 in pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters in an envelope and put it in the mailbox with the flag up. Mom came in with the envelope and said I couldn’t send it that way. I said, “Why? I put a stamp on it.”

Started a few years of stamp collecting from the quarter-pound offers in the back. Still know where Upper Volta was, and that there never was a Lower Volta.
