Amici Veloci My . . .

[SadieKate]

. . . goodness to pieces!:D

I now know why Snap has been lifting the martini glass so much lately. You folks put her through the wringer.

80 short sleeve and sleeveless items, including vests
22 pairs of arm warmers
21 long sleeve jerseys and jackets

123 total items and Corsair’s dream come true. She’ll get her long sleeve jersey.:rolleyes: :)

I am so looking forward to seeing an Amici Veloci jersey just where I’d least expect it.

To our fast friends, one and all.

Thank you, SK, for giving us a way to be a part of the story. Thank you, snapdragen for your diligent work! :D L.

[SadieKate]

Oh, really. Don't thank me. I think Jobob, snap, Adventure Girl, Kim and Veronica are the one who started it all . . . and the team was born. They reached out to me. Pretty cool group. And, now look at what their generosity has wrought. We're world wide! I'm just glad everyone wanted to join in.

[Brina]

woohoo, those numbers are awesome. thanks snap for all your hard work. thanks SK for opening this up to everybody.

OK! Thanks, y'all! I'd love to hear the long version of the story, right, ladies, wouldn't we all...? :D L.

[Trek420]

wonderful. what an amazing group effort.

I will proudly wear my short sleeved item :) a Spazzdog designer orriginal :)

[Selkie]

Thanks to all of you.--has to be hard work to take care of the logistics. I can't wait to wear my Amici gear and I have no regrets about getting the thermal jacket. By the way, those of you who ordered the vest won't be disappointed. Jobob sold me hers and it's very nice. The front is a light wind-resistant type fabric and the back, a breathable mesh. While it's got elastic at the bottom, the two-way zipper more than takes care of potential "bubble" and ride up. The design looks great, too.

[DrBee]

Wow! That is fantastic! Thanks SK for sharing your story and letting us be a part of this. Thanks for Jobob, AG, Kim, Veronica, and Snap for everything you've done! It was an amazing group effort like Trek said. I will proudly wear the short sleeve jersey and those armwarmers! Next time - I buy the longsleeve!

[snapdragen]

Next time - I buy the longsleeve!


Whimper......next time?.......:eek:

[Adventure Girl]

80 short sleeve and sleeveless items, including vests
22 pairs of arm warmers
21 long sleeve jerseys and jacketsDo you remember when we were sitting around after the Top Hat. We were drinking champagne, eating strawberries and talking about, "what does everyone think about a custom jersey?"

Never in my wildest dreams did I think it would evolve into this!! Amazing!

What's next? Shorts? Socks? How about a team car!:eek: :D

[snapdragen]

How about a team car!:eek: :D

I will NOT be responsible for buying the team car.......:D

[DrBee]

What's next? Shorts? Socks?

Oh yeah! I would go for that for sure!

[Tiffanie]

Yeah! http://www.tinklebelle.com/Smilies/images/thmbup.gif

[Lise]

Lesseee....paypal gives me a limit of $9,000 and change. That would go a ways toward the team car! It'll have to run on something really sustainable, like grass clippings...snap? snap? Are you hiding, snapdragen? :D L.

[snapdragen]

..snap? snap? Are you hiding, snapdragen? :D L.

snap's not here. I'm her doctor, I've confined her to bedrest, with Lemon Drops served by nubile young (but over 21 yo) boys.

[greenmachine]

This is fantastic! Thanks to all of you for your hard work! I can hardly wait to get my new AV jersey and arm warmers.

What's next? Shorts? Socks? How about a team car!:eek: :DYou just looove living up to your nickname, doncha?:p

[aka_kim]

What's next? Shorts? Socks? How about a team car!:eek: :DThere is no way I'll ever wear red and green shorts. I'm picturing how they'd look from the rear, and not liking what I see. :)

I thought we already had a team car - the Subaru Forester (oh maybe the Outback would do too). We just need to re-paint the team car(s). Snap could do that in her spare time. :p

Socks - if everyone with a jersey commits to buying at least 2 pairs, we'd be close to the 250 minimum order, wouldn't we?

[snapdragen]

Not even with AMICI VELOCI spread across the butt? :eek:

I'll get right on that...........

[DrBee]

How about black shorts with a red and green panel (with the gear) on the side? Maybe Amici Veloci across the butt. I'd wear that.

I'd totally buy the socks! I would think we could get 250 orders for that.

[Jones]

Are the socks going to be 1'" or 3" cuffs? Do we send the money to Snap? Will she accept an out of country two party check? Does paypal take American express? How long is your foot? My foot is 11" should I order a M or L socks?:) Just trying to keep the ball rolling on that sock order.;)

[SadieKate]

I think I need a second Mojito.

[jobob]

ooh, can I have one too? :)

[SadieKate]

Sure. Not as good as the Mojito Master's, but what can you expect from a mix? Just makes me appreciate his skills as bartender and brewmaster that much more. It does have homegrown mint.

So when will you arrive?

[crazycanuck]

I know this is not the question you probably want at the moment...I didn't order a jersey this time round as i have enough at the moment..I would like one next time though...Will there be a next time???

c

[SadieKate]

I really don't think so, sorry.

[DrBee]

Whaaaa???? Surely there will be a next time.... right? I'm someone would gladly take over the order organization for snap.. I'm sure of it.

Socks, shorts, ... the team car might be stretching it a bit.

[Lise]

Socks for sure. But they'd have to be organically grown wicking fabric produced in a sustainable wind-farm environment with non-toxic dyes and fairly-traded elastic.

Snap, where did you find this..."doctor"....and are there more where that one came from? :p

[winddance]

Team martini glasses?

[Brina]

was that lemon drop the candy or the shot?

[CorsairMac]

I GOT MY JERSEY!!!!!


although it cost millions of dollars, took thousands of years and cost hundreds of lives - I: here in Kathiopolis have achieved my goal!


to Everyone who had anything at all to do with this (and that would pretty much include the entire board), thank you all for your hard work.

[DirtDiva]

Kathiopolis, eh? And I thought I was the queen of the world! :D

[snapdragen]

was that lemon drop the candy or the shot?

the martini!

[corrine]

I just wanted to add my 2 cents -
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO MADE THIS POSSIBLE!

[CorsairMac]

Kathiopolis, eh? And I thought I was the queen of the world! :D


well you are - queen of all you survey of course!! gotta tell ya tho: tlkiwiville just cracks me up! sounds like something outta King Kong! :D

[DirtDiva]

Queen of all I survey, huh? Must go stand on something higher... :D

[bikerz]

OT, but that makes me think of that geat old Dr. Suess book "Yertle the Turtle" - does anyone remember that? That is the first book I remember reading...

[corrine]

Oh my! That one was a favorite of mine - in the same book was also the story about Gertrude McFuzz! :D

[DirtDiva]

I think we had "Yertle the Turtle" in the same book as "Horton the Elephant Hatches the Egg"... :)

[Brina]

the martini!

that looks yummy. you definitely deserve one if not many more of those. Thanks.

[Trek420]

bikerz "OT, but that makes me think of that geat old Dr. Suess book "Yertle the Turtle" - does anyone remember that? That is the first book I remember reading..."

Oooh, I remember all the Dr Suess books. Duckless and my mutual Mom was a reading therapist. We all read a lot and there was lots of quality childrens lit. in the house.

One of my favorites was the 500 hats of Barthalamew Cubbins but then I collected hats as a kid.

Back On Topic, there are Maurice Sendak jerseys, Curious George jerseys, why no Dr. Seuss jerseys?

[KnottedYet]

Licensing and copyright.

If an author doesn't sell-out (like J.K. Rowling did, big time!) no-one can legally sell anything based on their work.

[Trek420]

made for tv cartoon movies, movies, funny hats but no jersey? oh well.

[DrBee]

I'd love a Dr. Seuss jersey. I read a story to my daughter every night before bed. Every so often she'll pick a Dr. Seuss book. I'm out of breath by the end and my tongue is pretty much twisted into a knot, but they are so much fun!
