OBERLIN, Kansas (AP) -- A postcard featuring a color drawing of Santa Claus and a young girl was mailed in 1914, but its journey was slower than Christmas. It just arrived in northwest Kansas.

I wonder if I could buy a 93 year vacation for the price of that 1914 stamp ...

I saw that article....crazy to think about. When you think how much stuff is updated/renovated/changed/moved around over a span of time like that, especially this past century with everything that went on, its amazing that it survived like that. Must have just sat in a cupboard or drawer in some ancient building or post office forever.
