LAST CALL. Final batch of TFL shirts. Order Now.

Correia · December 19, 2002, 05:12 PM

By massive demand (and I really mean massive, you should see my In Box) I’m going to do one last run of TFL shirts. I will probably continue making Molon Labe items as these are popular on lots of gun boards, but this batch is just for TFL.

I’ll take orders until TFL closes its doors, then I’m going to crank these out as fast as I can, but please keep in mind that I’m doing this on short notice. I’m not going to offer any special orders this time. I’m also limiting the options to the dark colors. All items will be screen printed. There is no embroidery this time around.

The art will be on the front only. It will be the TFL logo. Underneath will be either TFL Alumni OR 1998 – 2002. Please vote on this thread which one you prefer. When the deadline draws near I will utilize whichever one got more votes.

Black, Navy, or Spruce(green) (please specify)
S, M, L, XL $13.00 Long Sleeve $17.00
2X $15.00 Long Sleeve $18.00
3X $16.00 Long Sleeve $19.00
4X $17.00 (4X not availible in green)

I also have a pile of Molon Labe hats on hand if anybody wants one. These are just the standard embroidered hats, same as the other batches.

MOLON LABE hats
Specify Tan, Black, Green, or Light Weight Khaki
$12.00

Pictures:

I will take checks or money orders made out to Larry Correia. My mailing address is:

For you procrastinators, this is it.

Correia · December 19, 2002, 05:14 PM

To everybody who I have had the pleasure of dealing with on TFL for the last 4 years, Thank You. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. TFLers are some of the best people I have ever known. I met some of my very best friends through this board. I have learned tons. I have become a better supporter of the RKBA. I’ve gained a better education about Freedom and the Constitution. I think that I learned far more about those issues from the debates on this board then I ever did in school.

Believe it or not, I’ve actually become a better shooter as well.

I was the 105th person to join TFL. In that time I have graduated college, had two kids, gotten a real job, bought a few guns, shot in a few matches, and had lots of fun. Now we have 18,000 people. Wow. Time flies.

I started making shirts for TFL when there was under 1,000 people on this board. I did it because nobody else wanted to. Go figure. Since then I have made hundreds and hundreds of them. Most of the time I even managed to get them right.

I got to represent TFL in the WC3gun match. Thanks to my teammates of Team TFL. I would proudly shoot alongside any of you on any day.

Thanks to Rich and the moderators. You guys have put out one impressive amount of work. And have put up with endless hours of frustration. I got to meet many of you in person, and even got to shoot alongside some of you. Rich, Denny, Rob, Scott, John, George. They are all good guys in person, not just on the net.

Thanks to all of the wonderful members. I’ve met many of you in person, and for that I’m glad, as that is how I made some of my best friends. I’ve corresponded with lots of you, and I look forward to meeting more of you in the future. I hope to do a lot of shooting with other TFL alumni in the future.

It has been an honor to work with you.

-Larry Correia
MOLON LABE!

Tamara · December 19, 2002, 05:18 PM

One long-sleeve tee, my vote is for "TFL Alumnus".

Oh, and it should be black, as I'm in mourning.

FPrice · December 19, 2002, 05:23 PM

"One long-sleeve tee, my vote is for "TFL Alumnus"."

Tamara has a good idea there, hope you can run with it. I'd buy one, maybe two.

Correia · December 19, 2002, 05:25 PM

So Alumnus is correct, not Alumni? I will edit my original post to reflect that.

Heck I'm a Utah State Alumnus. But when they bug me for money they always say I'm an Alumni.

**Rich Lucibella** · December 19, 2002, 05:26 PM

TFL Alumni.
Put me down for 12 Large and 6 XL Black L/S T's.
6 Large Black Sweatshirts.

First two long sleeve Staff shirt's for each staff Member to be billed to me. I'll let them know....can you handle the accounting, Larry?
Rich

Ben Swenson · December 19, 2002, 05:27 PM

I'm in agreement with Tamara
"TFL Alumnus" (though I would enjoy "1998-2002" as well)
One long-sleeved black T-shirt (XL).
One short-sleeved spruce T-shirt (XL)

Payment is sent.

Correia · December 19, 2002, 05:30 PM

Roger that. After all, I am an accountant in real life.

I believe that I know all the moderators by their real names, but it would be helpful if they identified themselves in thier orders. I'll take care of it for you.

Hey, Rich. I meant what I said above. TFL rocks. You did a great thing here. Don't ever forget it.

Sisco · December 19, 2002, 05:38 PM

Got one of the very first ones you made up, better have another.
Alumnus, Alumni, whatever you decide I'll take one. XL, Spruce.
"Checks in the mail"

elnhez · December 19, 2002, 05:45 PM

Larry:
I'm in for the following:
2 light weight khaki hats
1 black sweatshirt -- Large
1 black long sleeve T-shirt -- Large

Payment sent via USPS; I'll also email the order to you.

Thanks for all your great efforts; the hats are super. I didn't know you had the lightweight one available; should be good for summer.

Thanks again.

spacemanspiff · December 19, 2002, 05:49 PM

i'll take a Navy XL, Alumnus/Alumni

EDIT: made payment via PAYPAL,
email if any further info is needed.

powderific · December 19, 2002, 05:50 PM

Hey Correia,

I sent you a check last time that you did not cash because I did not get it in on time, and i would like you to use it for these shirts. I would also like to add an XL Navy sweat shirt and an XL short sleeve black t-shirt, which i will send another check for.

oh yah, and i vote for "1998-2002"

BigMike · December 19, 2002, 05:53 PM

FYI,

Alumnus and alumna both come from Latin and preserve Latin plurals. Alumnus is a masculine noun whose plural is alumni, and alumna is a feminine noun whose plural is alumnae. Coeducational institutions usually use alumni for graduates of both sexes.

I like "TFL Alumni." I'll order soon. Mike

Zak Smith · December 19, 2002, 06:03 PM

I sent another PayPal 'cause I decided to order two more shirts.

-z

Preacherman · December 19, 2002, 06:03 PM

Correia - why not combine both titles and have a shirt reading "TFL Alumni" on one line, and then "1998-2002" on the second line? That way we get the best of both worlds.

I'll definitely be ordering, just as soon as I make up my mind!

Denny Hansen · December 19, 2002, 06:08 PM

Larry-
TFL Alumni. Check and particulars will be in the mail.
Thanks for this last run.

Denny

Correia · December 19, 2002, 06:10 PM

I thought about it Preacherman, but currently I don't know if that will all fit, and still look good. I think it might be pushing the limits, and unfortunatly there ain't much time for trial and error.

So Alumni is correct? I'll reedit the first post.

Mauserlady · December 19, 2002, 06:29 PM

I like the way Preacherman thinks since that's what I was thinking also...

What ever is decided will be fine, I'm just glad you agreed to do one more order....

I'll have the following please: (all in large)

(1) Spruce long sleeved T-shirt
(1) Black sweatshirt
(1) Black Tall Jacket

Will paypal money over tonight when I get home.

Greg L · December 19, 2002, 06:40 PM

Pay pal sent:
2 - 3X Golf shirts (1 navy, 1 green)
2 - Hats (1 black, 1 green)

If you can have only one I vote for alumni. Both would be great. If it is close to fitting both but not quite then maybe drop the TFL from TFL Alumni as there will be the TFL logo right above it.

Thanks for doing this over the years.

Greg

yorec · December 19, 2002, 06:45 PM

No Larry, Alumnus is the correct singular form - Alumni is plural. I'd say a single person claiming TFL membership should be Alumnus. All of us together are the TFL Alumni. Either should work on the shirt, but it'll change the meaning as to which the line represents...

I think Alumni works better for me as it represents all of us at TLF and not just my solo status here. I didn't make TFL great - it was everyone together.

By the way - I'll be scraping together some $$$ wrong time of year to do it, lol. What's the deadline?

yorec · December 19, 2002, 06:53 PM

Found the deadline:

Quote:

For you procrastinators, this is it.

OK - Make mine a Forest Green 2xl Tall Golf Shirt.
Check's in the mail.

Hm - "98-02 Alumni"?

Preacherman · December 19, 2002, 07:21 PM

OK, Correia, whatever works, but if we can't have both lines, then I vote for "TFL Alumni". I agree with yorec that it conveys the sense of community and family better than the singular "alumnus" would. Also, can you PLEASE try to put a nice smilie on there, from our regular posting selection, just to convey the fun we've had together? My vote goes to this one:

. (It could go on the back...???)

Thanks again. I'll place my order soon.

elnhez · December 19, 2002, 07:26 PM

Hey Larry:
Sorry 'bout all the confusion from my earlier emails to ya. Hope you're clear on the order, address, etc. And of course, I forgot to vote.
(It's true: I am an idjit)

Anyway: my vote goes for "TFL Alumnus," although yorec makes a good point re alumnus = singular (each of us) vs alumni = plural (all of us).
However the votes go, ultimately, is fine.
Thanks again.
