Hummmmm. Let me get through this. We'll see how hard it is. And we'll get a grip on the size thing. Then if there's interest maybe a round two will be in order.

I'm pretty sure I saw "our" Jersey on some OLD guy in Kenosha today! That must mean they are here! Right?

It couldn't have been an optical delusion caused by my dratted bi-focals... No! It had to be our jersey on some OLD "Cheesehead Fred" wannabe!

That's my story and I'm...ummmmm...what was I talking about again?

Couldn't have been. We're at least 6 months behind getting all the current fashions here in Wisconsin.

Man, I keep thinking it's got to be soon, so I checked and it hasn't quit been 3 weeks since I sent off the order. This is worse than waiting for Christmas or the last day of school....

We could just donate them to the next generation of 50+ kids on the block....

As long as you are reordering, please change mine to sleeveless. It's way too hot to wear sleeves.

If we'd been proactive, we'd have designed 60+ jerseys.

Are we like 10? I was worried that when I turned 50, people would start telling me to act my age and not my shoe size, I see I've got good company and have nothing to fear

I'm expecting a lot from this jersey - it's much more $$ than I've spent on any other.

Oh, it'll be better than PF Flyers. You'll spin faster, climb higher and never flat once you get it.

The only thing I worry about is the possible weight gain between purchase and order....

You'll also be prepared for the Blueberry Pie Challenge (or, if you're not one of the pie worshippers, you can sell the Large to someone who's super-sized their "pie gut").

Jersey? What jersey?

New Jersey?

Oh, I'm so old and confused! (Not!)

We've had great feedback re the NORCAL jerseys. Can't wait for the -- um, what kind of jerseys? -- hey, it's new and I love new clothes! What else matters?

My NoCal jersey came yesterday. I really like it. It fits and feels good. We're about a month into waiting, so it shouldn't be too much longer. Th company says they charge the credit card just before they ship, so I keep checking my online banking to see if they have. Not yet...

Are you writing from some Caribbean island, to where you absconded with the jersey funds?

Not to get our hopes up, but the charge appeared on my card. I haven't got a ship date, but at least something happened.
Maybe it means they're going to Caribbean....
