It was from **Edward the Head**. Or at least it was supposed to be. :dubious:

Glad to hear you got it! I was beginning to worry that USPS had failed me again. Happy to hear that you like it.

I sent it out on 6/24…

If it was an Iron Maiden t-shirt then it was me. Iris sent it out and I guess forgot to put a note in it. At least it got there.

No! No! I got mine just fine last Friday I think. Thank you very much. Even though Aerosmith is not my favorite band, I absolutely love the fact that I have a t-shirt with KISS on it now. I’ve been so busy with finals that I completely forgot to thank you.

Also, I haven’t got out the t-shirt to my person yet. Please hold on for a few more days. I’ll give you two for being such a good sport 🙂

I recieved it yesterday thanks! I got not one but _three_ shirts. Woohoo! Whats cool **tanookie** is that I relate to each one as well. I did some beer goggling in school, at one point I was massively into Alanis Morrissette and I still love Ben and Jerrys (“Phish Food” rocks). Thanks. 😃

Woot! It arrived yesterday, I’m wearing it as I type this. I love the shrooms and the color is perfect! 🆒  
Now for a confession, I have not yet taken your package to the post office, I’ve unexpectedly had to put a rather large sum of money into my car and I’m flat broke till next Friday. ☹

I promise to mail it then.

Still no shirt for me. Apparently whoever got me doesn’t love me any more. ☹

I’m gonna sit down this weekend and figure out our status on this. I think the last count was around 35 or 36 out of 57 having gotten theirs.

Thanks, **twickster**. I’m really not trying to make more work for you, and please view my complaining as unimportant and meaningless whining; it’s been fun participating and all your efforts are much appreciated!

**Mama Tiger** – I was planning to do this this weekend anyway – as I indicated, you’re one of 15 or 20 people who haven’t gotten their shirts yet, so clearly someone needs to kick a little butt – why not me? 😉

Yes!!! It made it. Sorry it took so long. 😛

I have yet to receive a shirt, though. 😛

Okay, this is my understanding of who’s still waiting for a shirt:

**Ace309

Booker57  
chaoticdonkey.  
Congodwarf

Mama\_Tiger  
MissTake  
Portia (x2)  
ShirleyUjest  
Tanookie  
TwoTrouts  
VunderBob**

Pls. let me know if you _have_ gotten a shirt – I don’t want to start naming names of laggards if my list is inaccurate.

Hey, I resent that - I’m no laggard! I happen to be a _slacker_, thankyouverymuch.  
Mine are posted and on their way, as far as I know. 😕  
But later than I expected.

I’m not a slacker! I’m not! I put the shirts in the mail today! … Maybe I’m a slacker after all ☹ Sorry.

I got mine last week from **RockNRoach**. They are AWESOME!!!

I mailed out **Portia’s** on 5/5/05. I hope she has gotten it. She’ll need it next Thursday, for sure… :worries:

I re-sent my T-shirt off to MissTake/LilMiss a few days ago. I am a little worried because I messed up the address the first time. I apologize for it taking me a bit to get the shirt back out. The end of semester leaves me with so little time, and head for that matter, that the shirt was sitting on the front seat of my car ready to go for about a week before I actually got around to re-sending it. I hope LilMiss gets it soon!

Hi **Congodwarf** , I haven’t checked this thread in ages so needless to say I hadn’t seen your post to me. Gosh, if I knew you were so busy with more important things I would have said forget about it! Anyway, I’m glad that you are out and about again. I think we both cheated…I bought you a new one too! I’m anxious to see yours and I hope you like what I sent too.  
Regards,
