The Damned Shirt

Nomad · Post by **Nomad** » Mon Aug 17, 2009 4:34 am

I rue the day I asked for it. Its been a curse. A thick black cloud hanging over my head since it arrived. Its still here and Ive done nothing with it. Quite frankly I dont know what to do with it.

It lies there taunting me day after day after day. Have fun with me, spend some quality time with me, take me out and show me around.

Am I supposed to introduce it to my family and friends?

Im beginning to resent it for trying to make me feel guilty. I have enough guilt, I dont need this kind of pressure right now.

Im in way over my head on this one, I took on too much responsibility. I wasnt ready for the burden.

Ill get the shirt out to fuzzy balls on Wed. this week.

I never want to hear about this damned shirt again !

Fuzzy, you live 6 miles from the south pole. If I send it out Wednesday, you might get it by Halloween.

strap it on the back of yer bike and snap a pic of it with bike. Soooo easy, Take it to your city limits sign hang it there and snap a pic proof it was there. Hey asian tourists do that all the time, they love the "Welcome to Alberta" sign always hovering there.

Im sorry I really am. It made it from the top floor of my house to the bottom floor which is much nearer the door that leads outside which in turn leads to the post office. Thats some real progress.

Very very soon it will make its way to the inside of my car which is how I will transport it to the post office.

Many apologies.

Clearly I cant be relied on to be a responsible human being.

Who are you sending it to, i will ask to see if there is flour or pastry crusts, maybe some tortilla sauce on it. Or maybe even a bite out of it.

Why don't you write a message on it before you send it? Then others who get it can add their own message. It just adds to the fun! (I think) *scratches head*

I think this flippin shirt saga has gone on long enough! Why do people ask for the shirt to be sent to them, when in reality they have no intention of enjoying the fun of sending it on to the next person, and showing pics of it on here?

Reading all this nonsense, in different threads, about flippin shirts, I have lost my sense of humour ! Neffy is one member (or ex member, whatever) who has either lost, damaged or sold the shirt she asked for ! What's with people ? Those shirts are not cheap, and I think it is very sad that folk haven't got the guts to own up on the forum that they aren't, after all. bothered about progressing the shirt travels around the world. Nobody will judge, just so long as whoever has one of the shirts at the moment either sends it on NOW, or admits that it is lost etc. It is not rocket science FFS. Then, at least folk will know where they stand with regard to the travelling T shirts. :-5:-5:-5

IF YOU'VE GOT ONE OF THE TRAVELLING T-SHIRTS PLEASE SEND IT BACK TO KATHY ELLEN NOW. THEN MAYBE NEW ROUTES CAN BE ARRANGED !!!!!!!!!

I would think that if you don't know KE's addy, a PM to her will soon sort that out !

JUST CHUFFIN WELL DO IT. AND GIVE US ALL A BIT OF PEACE !!!!!!!

Kathy Ellen · Post by **Kathy Ellen** » Sun Sep 27, 2009 5:16 am

I've asked for Barman's Lotus shirt to be sent back to me before it goes overseas to Fuzzy. I was having some personal problems when I first received the shirt and didn't have time to post pics of it.

Now, I do have time to show Lotus my town, and will send the shirt onto whoever will take some pics of their town or nearby area, post their pics and send the shirt on.

The original purpose of sending around a travelling tshirt was simply to show us your town...where you live...You don't have to have fancy pictures.....SIMPLE:-6

I would like my shirt back also & I know who has it....they've had it for several months now & have done nothing with it...doubt I'll ever see it again....I wanted to sent on to Carolly to no avail, it is lost....what I'd like to know is why would you want the shirt mailed to you & then have no interest in using it for it's purpose? Is the thrill of getting it mailed across the ocean from another country? Can't imagine why anybody would be that interested in a shirt unless they want to use it for their own new tee shirt! KE if you ever get your shirt returned, I will take pix & post, but this is getting rediculous.:-5:-5

Perhaps naming the person may stir them into doing the right thing ! Or are you trying to avoid embarassing them ? - which is a very kind act under the circumstances !

yes that is correct.

I agree with Gill and you Ducky and KE, lets get these shirts back to KE. For crying out loud I have paid good postage on both those shirts to get them around the globe and am slightly pi-ssed they have not gone farther. I know in the one to Oscar there was an extra something for her too and I think a note. gosh been so long I have forgot.

I am sorry I did not get to take any shirt to the Octoberfest. Pity. And hey if ya can't afford to send the dam shirt let somebody know and we can pitch some money to get them home.

I was under the impression that Oscar would send it on to me.... still waiting and still prepared to take it on an excursion, although this time of year now it will not be so picturesque :wah:

Oh that's going to be a little awkward as Oscar has some bad news concerning Mr. Oscar. Probably a shirt is going to be the last thing on her mind right now.
