CPO BOX 1666

This very morning I dispatched yet another piece of correspondence to CPO BOX 1666. This time I went back to an old stand by. You may remember I sent a similar letter to my college post office box back in 2006. Back then I covered the front of the envelope with one-cent stamps, leaving just enough room for an address, and inside I wrote "Hi" on a little slip of paper. That was all. I fugure it has been 5 years since then so it must now be safe to revisit this classic.

On the back of a piece of cardboard depicting a can of Mello Yello I drew a lovely winter scene.

You're welcome current boxholder.

MY OLD COLLEGE POST OFFICE BOX

 It has been a while since I sent anything back to my old College Post Office Box, but you long-time followers of the BFZ know that I periodically send things back to the current boxholder of CPO BOX 1666 (Whoever you are!!!) just to let them know that I care and that they belong to the great fellowship of box 1666. (If that "1" weren't on the front of that box number it would be the creepiest box number ever.) In the past I have sent feathers, a dollar bill, pine needles, twinkies, a license plate, and, once, an empty envelope...you know...stuff college students need.

 Recently I was cleaning one of the public restrooms here at good ol' Camp Maranatha when I found this piece of currency from Indonesia in the shower area. One look at the stearn, machete-hefting  visage of Kapitan Pattimura and I knew that the current boxholder of CPO BOX 1666 needed to have it.

 I have not yet done any research to learn how much money this bill represents, but such is my generous spirit that I sent it anyway. Consider it a scholarship, current boxholder.

You may also feel free to mail things to CPO BOX 1666.
