I wonder if we should get a fireproof suitcase with a handcuffs to keep it attached to the bearer for safekeeping at all times! (just kidding, I know the shipping would be horrendous).

Nice, Conroy.


[quote="Divemistress of the Dark"]FYI, y'all: So far the markers DM sent along are working great and are not bleeding through.[/quote]

Excellent. Glad to hear it.

(If any of the markers run out, somebody please let me know so that I can find more.)


[quote]roll up the top a little bit so you can get a good grip on it when waving.[/quote]

Added bonus: rolling up the top raises the horse logo, making it easier to see.


I am SO happy that the flag has been spotted a few times. Outdoor stadiums are going to be more problematic (size-wise and lighting-wise) than the indoor arenas, so if he doesn't spot it at the outdoor shows, I won't be surprised. I can hope, but I won't be surprised.
Dramatic highlights & a unique musical cosmos. Guaranteed.

*****PLEASE DON'T USE FEDEX TO MAIL ME ANYTHING!!!!!!*****

I'm screaming that in caps because I have had SO many problems with FED EX it is insane (DHL as well). And if I miss delivery/they can't find my house (which I won't go into how many times they've fucked this up, despite my easy address), their pickup station is nearly impossible for me to get to, not having a car of my own.

United States Postal Service or United Parcel Service only, PLEASE. I never have problems with either of them and their package-pickup locations are easy for me to get to (especially regular old USPS). You'd think Fed Ex could handle these things since I live in a big city but in Philly they seem to employ the biggest morons under the sun.

Sorry, thought I'd just emphasize this as soon as possible.

Don't worry, sockii -- I've already got you covered on that front.

But as the flag goes, thanks for the offer, mtj, but I need the flag back before you get home. But I very much appreciate the offer though. Thanks! Be sure to sign it while you're in Cardiff!

As a result, I'll be tweaking the European Flag Schedule details. Ilbochini, olivier, and Giovanni, I will email you with the changes and then post them here on the board.

You're too kind DM, thank you for this great idea!

I'd just add that I'll be a bit back in the stadium (Pelouse) and the flag would not be too visible, so if there is someone else with better ticket volunteering for Paris 2 I'd be glad to let him the duties of bearing the flag. I'd be honored just to carry the flag back to Italy and give it again to Giovanni in Torino.

Well, this at least until I can find a "Pelouse Or" ticket. Someone has an extra one ?

Ciao

To be fair, Bongo, remember that the Flag is doing it on someone else's dime. I'm sure that if the Flag had to work for a living and pay its own bills, it would think long and hard before just galavanting around the world all willy nilly like it is.


And no no, ilbochini, YOU are too kind.

Yo Dirty,

Just responded to your email. You can include Toronto and Montreal to the flag's itinerary. Proud to be a sponsor of the flag's world tour.

BongoBoy - you better sign it in Toronto as well!

Yo, Copelandous! We can't do Montreal #2, but I would love to put you down for Toronto #2 and Montreal #1. (And yes, BongoBoy had better sign the damn flag in Toronto.) I'll email you in a few minutes with details so you can decide if you're up for the task.
