Ah, so that is where all the activity came from! I still have to reply to some letters I got half a year ago and when looking at the goonslist, I saw two things:
1) the Goonlist.htm does not work on my machine
2) drat, that is a short list.

Peeches and 50sGirlGroupon aren't updated onto the spreadsheet yet, but yeah, we're a much smaller Goonclub than before. Speaking of, Peeches I got your lovely painted postcard this weekend! :3:

Sorting through my mail, I have received and will be returning this week to 13Pandora13, Shrimpwhiskers and Team Lunch.
One problem: I am not sure who drew this:

because I have a painting of two foxes I would like to return to you.

The others will also get some stuff from the pile, no worries!

I'm a huge nerd and artist that loves cheesy horror movies, cycling, making/reading indie comics/zines, and all kinds of novels. Expect to get some art from me! I love chatting about movies, art, dungeons and dragons, and my irrational love of charlatan Zak Bagans. You will also probably get a picture or two of my cat Tubes who is a very lovely little guy.

If SA goes to Valhalla tonight (https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3928980) I have the spreadsheet saved, including all the new people who haven't been added yet. I will write to you until you stop responding, and possibly still Christmas and Halloween cards after that.

Thank you for the decade+ of penpalling, Goons. It's been an honor. You can email me at pandora (dot) campbell (at) gmail (dot) com.

I don't frequent the forums that much and try to respond to all mail I get but have seen a huge delay in that the past few months. I was just picking it up again.
Over the last few weeks I received postcards from 13Pandora13, Team Lunch, Schrimpwhiskers and Zoesdare (Thank you all, you amazing people). Beware tho that international mail, especially between Europa and the US currently can be severely delayed.
I have you address noted down so even if nothing ever arrives (it happens), I can still mail you!

Same, sort of, I will keep replying to mail.
Saved the sheet as well, but in general I tend to use the return address on the letter/card I receive as I am too lazy to open the sheet at times.

I've updated the list this morning.

I've received mail from Zoesdare, Ceramic Pig, Team Lunch, and Pandora - Thank you! Surprise goonmail is keeping my sense of existential dread at bay. Much appreciated.

I'm sending out some (possibly) drunk ramblings today.

As this week is my birthday, I send all goons on the list a birthday card. It made sense to me at the time.

The contestant for "weirdest goonmail ever received" is Pershing, who send me a book about Alaska. Before shipping any other tomes to Europe, please give it to a Goodwill and go take your SO out for dinner on that money. Hell, expensive! Thank you for the mail tho, it was the biggest surprise of 2020!

Thanks for the birthday card I got yesterday, Keetron! I should be caught up on replies to everyone now including Lamb and Ceramic Pig.

Another returned letter, this time from Pershing. Hope all is okay at Casa De Pershing.

Keetron, it is, in fact, my birthday this month. It is a milestone birthday, but I'm doing little or nothing to celebrate because, well, you know, look around. Your card made my day. Thank you.


And to everybody else who has sent me anything recently, I super suck at acknowledging when I get mail, but I appreciate it every time. Much love!

I remember being part of a snail mail exchange thread probably in 09 and in my inconsistent visitation of the forums I lost sight of it. I've been posting a lot more regularly since maybe March, and I've been sad to not see a thread like this. I guess I was just in the wrong subfolders! I would like to write with y'all!

I promise to return mail to any goons who would write me. I guess some things about me, I'm a big fan of music, and I'm all over the board there. I used to listen to more metal but the last ten years or so I've found I'm listening to a lot more hip hop. Also very into pen and paper RPGs, art, and animals.

Shoutout to Keetron, Lamb, and Zoesdare sending me some Goonmail!

Zoesdare sent me a cute little print of an organ pipe cactus. (They're lanky!) Keetron mailed me a nice little birthday card with some flower stickers. Lamb sent me a neat postcard with a mid-century Disney design.

I've sent out some more mail. I'm working my way around the spreadsheet still. If anyone receives mail twice in a row, I'm sorry. I forgot to mark off the folks I've already sent stuff to the first time around. :(

Any chance of getting an updated version of the Excel with people's addresses on it? I've gotten a couple nice cards the last week with no addresses on them to respond to and they're not listed in the spreadsheet from Page 1.

Peeches, I just finished drafting a reply to you, going to drop it off on my way to work in a minute. lamb, I don't see a return address here, I assume it's in the Excel sheet in the OP but I was having trouble opening it on this machine. I can try on my phone later. Thanks for making my night fun, friends.
