Sounds good to me! humanodon

Alrighty! 10 copies of some issue or other ordered. Which 9 of you wanna be a part? humanodon? _refugee_? Seven other takers?

humanodon  ·  3915 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Yeah for sure. I just hope we don't get the same issue!

cW  ·  3913 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Wow, that would be great! 100 copies of the same issue enter the possession of 10 hubskiers, and we'll know one thing for sure: POETRY had a dud. Or a massive falling out with subscribers, at some point along the way. Either way, will be fascinating!

And if so, we'll have to make some sort of massive public art project out of the 100 copies, Gaudí meets Oldenburg meets Banksy style. No?

Hi cW, did you get your copies? I have my 10 and am starting to ship them out. I have the Q&A issue from December 2010. Please PM me your address if you would like a copy.

If we all got the same issue, my money would be on highly toxic cologne or perfume samples as being the reason, or something similar.

I'd be down for making something out of them if we all do end up with the same copy.

_refugee_  ·  3913 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I'm in! Ordered.

cW  ·  3913 days ago  ·  link  ·  

magnificent!

humanodon  ·  3913 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Nice! Now we just have to wait for about a month :/

cW  ·  3913 days ago  ·  link  ·  

BWA-BWA-bwa-bwa ... (seemed like a good time for a sad trombone). It'll be great, though: we'll just have forgotten all about it, and the delight will descend anew.

humanodon cW lil i have received my 10 copies, they are "poetry: the q&a issue" from december 2010 what about you guys?

lil  ·  3895 days ago  ·  link  ·  

I only ordered a single copy. I had already ordered when the idea of exchanging copies came about.

My single copy has arrived. In Key West. I'm in Canada, so I won't be seeing it for a while.

Please send me a q & a issue though. Send it to the Key West address. It's much cheaper than mailing anything to Canada.

_refugee_  ·  3894 days ago  ·  link  ·  

OK. I now have 3 pieces of mail I need to get to various Hubskiers. To the post office this weekend indeed!

humanodon  ·  3895 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Nothing yet. I don't know if all my mail's been getting through. The bills seem to be coming through fine, but the other shit I'm waiting for, doesn't seem to be.

_refugee_  ·  3894 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Hmm. Good luck with that, I shall mail you the poetry book and poetry lit mag together this weekend, I hope they come through.

humanodon  ·  3894 days ago  ·  link  ·  

Cool, thanks! I'll send a copy of the ones I get, whenever they get here.

humanodon  ·  3894 days ago  ·  link  ·  

So, I just received the January 2014 issue. cW and lil, if you want a copy, PM me your addresses! Same goes for anyone else (up to 7!) who'd like one!
