I’m wearing one right now, and I don’t care what anyone else says, **Elysian** , you’re not a slacker in my book! Thanks! I’m so glad you liked them, I wasn’t sure what to send. I just now checked this thread, so sorry I didn’t reply earlier. I am a slacker, I tell you! ---

I finally found the other little gift I was gonna send. It’s amazing what you can lose in a tiny kitchen. I’ll probably send it from work next week. I also got my shirt and it’s also my favorite color! One of my coworkers tried to steel my pen (her husband is from Ireland). Thank you! ---

> [@heraldgwena](#): > > Actually, it came today. Where is Wayne State, so when people ask I can tell them 🙂 :eek: Really? I guess growing up in this area I’ve always heard the name and assumed everyone everywhere had too; same thing w/ Bob Seger. _shrug_ Wayne State University’s main campus is located on Woodward Ave in Detroit and there are 11 satellite campuses around Southeast Michigan. It’s a fantastic school, not that I have a bias or anything! Its medical and law schools are well-known and overall it’s the most notable and thriving thing in the city right now, unless you count Kwame’s PR machine. I’m going to be a senior next year in Nutrition & Food Science @ Wayne. The t-shirt I sent is in our school colors. www.wayne.edu for more info! ---

I could adopt an orphan 🙂 Let me know if a sad T-shirtless soul needs adoption. ---

Ah, phooey, I dropped the ball. I was going to confirm the t-shirtlessness of the suspected orphans, and send out some irate emails to their purported senders. Haven’t done either. Keep an eye on this space for the “adopt-an-orphan” program in a few days. ---

Haven’t done either. Keep an eye on this space for the “adopt-an-orphan” program in a few days. I’m still an orphan and I would adopt another orphaned doper should the need arise 🙂 ---

Still shirtless. I don’t really expect anything, though. I don’t need to be adopted. ---

Well, what? You want me to be mega sad I didn’t get a t-shirt? I don’t really care. No one needs to make an extra effort for a t-shirt for me. It’s not important. ---

Sorry I didn’t get back sooner, I mailed **electrozion** his T-Shirt. I hope it’s warm enough there to wear it when it arrives. I had another one picked out but this one has the coolest logo on it I couldn’t resist. 😃 ---

Got an email from **altiod** saying she’s gotten the t-shirt that **Portia** sent (though saying nothing about whether she’s mailed one herself – I did ask for clarification on this point). She says “thanks!” I’ll spend some time this weekend working out the actual status of what’s going on. **AwSnappity** – there’s all kinds of reactions well this side of “mega-sad” where it’s okay to want to get a t-shirt.
