Fan mail, wardrobe malfunction, & marathoning?

as you could imagine, we get a lot of fan mail here. what can we say? people like us. while we can't respond to each letter personally, due to sheer volume, every once in a while one will stand out that gets our attention. this one was sent in response to our t-shirt and we're happy that our supporters are pleased. here's a letter from nate's mom :



but, the question still remains... who the hell is nate? no matter, we like his mom. she rocks! and not in a stifler's mom kind of way either, for you dirty folks out there.

also, we never got around to posting about the whole t-shirt fiasco, or "wardrobe malfunction" as i like to say. we decided to go with a local vendor to do the printing instead of our beantown connection- big mistake. you'd think it'd be pretty easy to print 3 lines and 4 letters in two colors on a t-shirt without effing it up. when we got them back at least half of the women's shirts were printed...crooked. it wasn't entirely obvious at first but something wasn't quite right. i put one on, looked at myself in the mirror in puzzlement. only when i tilted my head to the right did i realize that this thing was crooked. so, we went back to the printer and to make a long story short - they ended up correcting their mistake but in the process were big jackasses about it. apoz deserves credit for haggling with them - she's one tough customer. way to stand firm! in anycase, here's a pic of the final product.



and finally, the new york marathon was today. it sounds like such an awesome race - running through all 5 of the boroughs. if i ever muster up the cajones to train for a marathon, i definitely want to do this one. yeah, yeah, i know you have to be a member of nyrr or in order to register for it, those are all minor details. or maybe i'll just have to move there simply in order to run it.

just to egg you on p-loop - diddy (no more "p" but don't worry, he's still keeping it real by talking about himself in 3rd person) finished the NY marathon 2 years ago in 4:14:54 AND raised over $2 million for [insert worthy charity name here]. YOU CAN DO IT TOO!
