I Don't Care<br />
I saw you with another fellow, but I don't care,<br />
You do not love me any more, but I don't care.<br />
Perhaps you think you made me mad, but I don't care,<br />
Some other girl will make me glad, so I don't care.<br />
<br />
This postcard was sent from 'A Friend' to Miss Rebecca<br />
Mean+ney in (I'm guessing) 1911.<br />
<br />
I think if 'mr. friend' didn't care, he would have spent the time and money to buy the postcard and stamp and call her a meany.<br />

I'm just a little stinker and I travel everywhere -<br />
Folks can't see or hear me and yet they know I'm There!<br />
<br />
The skunk on this funny postcard is reading a book called, 'How to Make Friends and Influence People'.<br />
