You had me looking. But if there is a subforum here, I can't find it. Then again, I never found the women's forum either....

My bad news is your good news.
I got such a sore throat today I stayed home from work.
A big packaged arrived early in the morning. It was full of jerseys and such.
I managed to sort and stuff envelopes before the post came at 12:30, so, with the exception of the Canada shipment (Have to go the the P.O. and fill out customs papers), the goods are in the mail. That would be a happy 49 items!

Remember, you are morally obligated to post a photo of yourself (or designated spokesmodel) in your stuff. Failure will result in bad karma flats.

It would be swell if whoever gets their shipment first should starts a new "success" thread and posts their photo.

That's HUGE! Thanks so much. It would help if all pictures had been photoshopped onto bizarre locations, as you have done. Sort of a Flat Stanley (or Flatless Stanley)!

Not a subforum, but the 65+ sticky?

Thanks for all your hard work on this fall's jersey order. A five week turnaround is fantastic!

Hope your throat gets better soon and doesn't spread to other areas.

Another heartfelt "thank you" Curtis. Not only for the work involved in putting the order together, but for the effort put toward designing the jersey.

Can you mail a sore throat? If so 49 of you have an extra something in your package.

Mine showed up in No. Virginia about 5 minutes ago. Still in the wrapping on the table in front me.

The mrs. just rolled her eyes.

I think it's cool. Many, many thanks for doing this!
