postcards from the abyss

Description:
refridgerators are graveyards for postcards, and magnets their attendants. several times a day, in the mundane act of opening the door to the fridge, then reaching inside for an item, one comes into close contact with the postcards, but they are overlooked, and thus their glory is denied. they are not seen nor heard, they are ghosts hovering in the mist above the proverbial tombstones!

to their rescue! they must be revered, they must be honoured, the memories so carefully inscribed onto their hidden surfaces must now be brought into the light.

and so it is, with this collection, i humbly submit such a tribute.

note: the collection is constantly expanding.

the secret meaning of life, perhaps? or atleast a good recipe for cheesecake?

I'll confess...when I see postcards on someone's fridge, I always want to read the backs while they're not looking. Strange, because I don't normally write anything of substance on a postcard. So what am I hoping to find?
