Your Letter

I know I'm a total geek, because I am super excited about this nifty little promo offered by HBO and the US Postal Service. To market the John Adams miniseries starring Paul Giamatti (love him!), they're allowing everyone to mail out one greeting card for free. Ok, I know, even without having to pay for postage, most of you still wouldn't bother sitting down, writing out a letter and sending it by snail mail. But, as you can see from the pics I've provided, the cards are so adorable!


Here's how it works, for those of you who still need convincing. Click on the link and go to "customize and send a free John Adams greeting card." You can choose your design, pick a quote, and even add your own pictures to the inside if you want! Then they send it to you for free, so you can write out a message. Then, you get to mail it out to whomever you want for free! Come on!

I read somewhere that over the course of John Adams and his wife Abigail's correspondence, they wrote over 1000 letters to one another, most of which became indispensable to the director as he was making the miniseries. An email can't possibly compare to a tangible, handwritten note. Honestly, when was the last time you sent one? HBO and USPS are hooking you up, so get on it!
