  1. Hey, did anyone else ever send Eli from Hamilton

    (posts as Michaeli)

    $20 last year for forthcoming shirts and get rooked?

    I did

    Thanks Eli

    (Sofa: aware that sending money to a stranger is a gamble,
    but I felt fine risking $20)

  3. The original MUni spotting T-shirt idea was from Phil in the
    UK. He handled the European orders just fine. I'm wearing
    mine with pride. Michaeli offered to print and distribute in
    North America to reduce shipping costs; bummer that he
    apparently never did and even worse that you paid for
    nothing. Ironically, his sig line read "michaeli - Trust
    me... I know."

    Michaeli doesn't post in RSU anymore. His email at the time
    was <chiassew[at]mcmaster[dot]ca>, in case you might want to
    try and clear things up.

  4. I emailed him and was on the list. Got an email back but he
    never asked for money. I got the impression that it wasn't a
    definite thing. It's a drag that you got stiffed. Is he
    still on the boards?

    Well, kindof. I had four made as a trial run to make sure
    they came out okay, which found owners. With the end of my
    course approaching I didn't get any more made. Others who
    were interested have either forgotten about it or had their
    own printed; no-one has sent me money but not got a t-shirt.

  8. I wouldn't mind just having a poster of it for my room. That
    would rock. A tee would be nice too.

  9. If anyone does find him, remind him of his bounced
    cheque/check he owes the Toronto Unicyclists for last years
    Toque games as well.

  10. Perhaps a bit late, but I think it would sound/look better
    without the comma between the Profiles and cranks. Oh yeah,
    drop the "s" on the end of Profiles as well.

    But then it doesn't "go" with the original as well... that
    little bit is supposed to be a short, punchy list; having
    another multisyllabic bit kinda spoils it, I think.

    Imagine Ewan McGregor saying it, it works much better...

  15. Welcome back Eli! It's good to see you back on the boards.
    You still riding?

    I hope someone will pick up this project, I'd like to have
    one of those shirts some day. All the better that now I
    actually have a MUni.

    Cheers, Daniel

  17. Eli

    Take care of yourself first ! Don't worry about it.

    Whenever you are able to send the funds, make out the cheque
    to "Toronto Unicyclists". You can send the cheque to: 71
    Jasper Avenue Toronto ON M6N2N2

    Take it easy, Darren

    I second that. I may have worded my original 'warning' too
    harshly. *

    Just a touch, eh?

    Nevertheless, apology accepted Klaas. (Though it would be
    nice if you checked up on how many people I actually cheated
    before making accusations in the future 🙂.)

    Later, Eli.

    The money order is in the mail.

    Take care of yourself as well, Eli.
