Why I'm Breaking Up With You

The following is from a GoCard advertising Breaking Up with Shannen Doherty (Tuesdays on the Oxygen Network. . . there that ought to eliminate any copyright problems they have.) Its a postcard that you send, and check all that apply. I thought I would provide it here in a handy printable form for internet visitors. (I grabbed several of the cards, so I'm covered through the next 4 or 5 awkward break-ups . . . or early November.)
