I can't do this because I don't have my own computer, but I do want a CD! I'm also offering one up for the holidays (it's sort of a post-election agnst CD), so if you wanna do a swap, let me know. :)

I made tamales last year....
I might be making some in January.
I will send you some, if I do!

Instead of making a gazillion CDs, you shold coordinate a Friday Random Ten list swap.

Michelle - Bless your little heart. I'll take 'em.
Lauren - It gives me great pleasure to mix CDs. And what I send won't be too random. That being said, how would a list swap work?

Someone coordinates by collecting addresses and assigning each member of the swap a recipient for a mixed CD. So I might send you one, you would send one to someone else, they would send one to another, and so on.
Maybe I'll coordinate one.

That sounds good. I couldn't do just a huge mailout, but one or two is cool.
