I have cards from LLoyd & Tian. Woot!
Rasmus Bøg Hansen
And I have *considered* getting some cards but not got around to it yet.
I'll have to send them from Norway, as we leave tomorrow.
A pity COP15 has ended - what a pain to have that as a neighbor and when
we finally got around to leave, it is over...

Lloyd and Tian are on my bookshelf =)
Not literally perhaps, but in celebratory card goodness form.
My own were written a few days ago on the Solstice, and sent
yesterday. Who knows when they'll arrive!
Thankyou Jan for organising this year! :D

Lloyd's and Linux Jay's cards managed to reach me before Christmas, and
have joined the cards from family and friends on my kitchen wall.
My own cards are purchased but as yet unwritten. I was starting to write
a bad excuse for why I haven't sent them, but recognised it for what it
was, and deleted it. I haven't send them; bad, bad me! I'm hoping to get
them out before New Year, so at least they will be posted in the right
year... :-) (Cards for 2008 are purchased too and have been since 2008 -
expect them any time in 2010...)
Best,
Kåre

You're doing better than me; I haven't even gotten as far a putting
myself on the list this year.

I got that one to. Also one with Santa carrying a board into the surf.

Crossing TX, NM, AZ and CA on I-10, I saw that where there are no lights
at night there is also usually poor radio reception. What a coincidence!

A card from Nemo, Woot Loot! Love the Aussie koala bears & kangaroos.

I just got a Jan v/d Broek in todays mail. I'm bumming because I already
took the picture for my website and wondering if I should redo it.
After all, this is the only one that wishes me "good coin dropping".
I appreciate that personal touch. Advice?

Reshoot. I was impressed with the last-keeper's card. Besides, we're
talkin' list keeper! Not reshooting would be like a team photo with no
coach.
Just my two cents (one a 1996D, the other a wheat penny)
Nemo
Shiny glitter from Witch :)
Urban Chronotis wished me a happy 2K10 (especially amuses me since I
was
only speculating on the correctness of calling it 2K10 today on my blog
[10]
Yay for international cards :)
And hoopy christmas wishes from Linux Jay :D
Ahh, %afda. Where the festive season need never end!

Unless it's a 1958, that wheat penny is guaranteed to be older than me.

Not just done, but nicely done!
And I'm glad you liked the Minnesota postmark & postage continuity. For
international cards I went with a single appropriate value (slightly
over value) stamp. Multiple state stamps and odd cent makup stamps just
wouldn't fit.
Tian
I used multiple stamps and odd cent makeup stamps. I suppose I about
covered 42% of the envelope's front on some of them. I'm hording my
remaining 42 cent stamps for you guys. Hopefully they'll last long emough.
Linux Jay
Many thanks for my card from Professor Urban Chronitis ;)
And Tian too for that matter!

I hope I remembered all card senders. I am too lazy to go and take a

Mine *might* be sent soon.

Oh, I didn't figure out that it was for two years ;) I thought it
*might* be for two christmas's, though...
