[img] http://images.cafepress.com/product/19030193v6_150x150_Front.jpg[/img] Builder wanted one. Plain, simple and a FACT. So, he liked this one. (I'm gonna try to see if I can do this in those transparent ones too ... like you put in the window.) I'm going to do like before and order enough to get a discount. If anyone wants one, just send $5 to Stovebolt HQ and I'll mail them from here. No postage or handling charge. The five bucks will handle it enough. [img] http://images.cafepress.com/product/50549724v6_240x240_Front.jpg[/img] And for the "Chick Magnet" guys, I'll re-order those tomorrow too. I was hoping to make a "patina" background one ... but ran out of time. It's a little hard to make a good patina background. Or at least it is for me. When I place the order tomorrow, usually I get to send off five free $5 off stickers (which will cover the mailing fee for stuff in the Hoo-ya shoppe). If you want me to have them send YOU that coupon, let me know. See you all in the morning.  Peg

"hey you have a beautiful truck" Now I have not had a Beautiful young gal look my direction (sure she was looking a the bolt) in a very long time, so it made my day. I think that this is just a StoveBolt bonus, to have moments like that, from time to time.

They did not arrive today either, so I put in a tracer deal with CafePress. They should have been here on Monday.
Stay tuned ...

Plus, good news. CafePress just sent an email apologizing for the (lost) shipment. They are sending another batch. So, when the first pile gets here, that'll give us some to pass around!!
At some point, we'll get some art to go with these sayings and make up some more. I love sayings. I have a whole file folder with some I've collection for over ten years. (Some are really long stories, tho.)

I think I understand now, but I must say I don't "get it". Am I not old enough, have I lived a sheltered life, or is this something new I just missed all together?
Grigg | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,971 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 1,971 | Grigg, I coined the phrase in the IRWIPI adventure. Here is a link that talks about it.

Are you selling those bumper stickers? | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,074 Authorized Pest | | Authorized Pest Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,074 | Yes, I've got two of them already ... the Chick Magent (w/females), and the Stovebolt Up. I just ordered the "Friends" stickers yesterday. It's cheaper if I get them in bulk and then just mail them out from here. So, if you want one / some, just stick a five spot (for each one) and send it to us. Make sure you've got a return address label on there. And let me know which one(s) you want. I am hoping to get others made up (when I get the art). Then I can just keep them here. The good thing about doing it this way ... well, it's cheaper. I'm not sure but I think the postage / handling for the sticker is $3. But I'm almost certain it'll cost less than a buck to mail these. Any extras that I have, I'll take to the meet 'n greets. Peg

I think I'll put one on the fridge. When I see it, it will get me going in the morning. Maybe I should get a smaller version for my coffee maker. Next I'll need an alarm claock that shouts "STOVEBOLT UP!" in the morning. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 146 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 146 | These stickers are on my bolt.
