I just got an email from my father. He's sitting in a pub in Cologne, Germany watching the local hockey semi-finals, enjoying a beer, and sending me an email via his PDA to share brag about it. Pretty cool that you can still talk trash to family and friends even though you're thousands of miles apart. I remember mailing postcards back home when I vacationed with relatives in Germany as a kid. It still amazes me sometimes just how much things have changed in the past 20 years. :cool:

And funny how special it is to receive or send a postcard these days. I remember sending a postcard from Scotland to a friend I was chatting to everyday on IM and she was so stoked when she got it, like we hadn't talked in years.

So true. Always great to walk out to the mailbox and find personal mail waiting inside.
