Postcards from the Edge : Happy Birthday, Walter!

I just received this postcard from my friend Gerri at Absolutely True:

Happy 3rd Birthday, Walter Isaac!

Thanks for sending me this W.W.E. edition of Postcards from the Edge...of the World! I guess I can't decide if I think it's real. They definitely choreograph their battles, but it's REAL in the fact that they are skilled performers risking serious injury. I guess you can consider me part-wacky! What do you think about W.W.E.?

That pizza sounds good, too! I'll have to check out Jerry's Pizza if I'm ever in Central, South Carolina.

And don't forget, you can send me postcards from around the world for ANY reason - vacations, birthdays, anniversaries, marriage proposals...whoa! A marriage proposal would be pretty cool.

Gerri's previous postcard from South Carolina can be seen HERE.

Postcards from the Edge : Gerri in Pendleton, SC

For the next edition of Postcards from the Edge...of the World, we travel to Pendleton, South Carolina, the home of Gerri from Absolutely True. Gerri's postcard reads:

Very interesting that you think the accents are wacky! I'm sure they think you have an interesting accent, too. And that's too bad about the local police. I'll bet there's an interesting story to go along with your description of "worthless", eh?

Absolutely True is one of my regular reads, where you can find information about the most astonishing items in this wacky world of ours. For example, where else would you find an image of the monorail cat, a fascinating open letter to the Burger King girl, and generally bizarre news such as the story of a teen texter that got four years for a fatal car crash?

And the best part? It's all Absolutely True!

As a translator, I totally appreciate not having to separate the fact from the crap. It may be wacky, but I can assure you that it's all true.

That's why I totally get Absolutely True. No further translation is necessary.

And if YOU are interested in sending me a postcard and having your website "Translated", it's simple! All you have to do is send me a postcard, and when I put it up on Rosetta Rants, just write a post linking to my post, so all your friends can see your card! That way, more people will learn about my idea, too! Please CLICK HERE to learn more.

And be sure to check out my new Postcards from the Edge Buttons! They're loads of fun!

I can't wait to hear from you!
