Wow! Getting an honorable mention is pretty exciting! Almost as exciting as winning a t-shirt. But not quite.

I, for one, am very proud to be featured on the facebook group as one of the officers. It’s pretty sweet.

We’re on the 38th ballot with the t-shirt contest.

Actually, we picked 5 winners, but still haven’t heard back from everybody. We’ll unveil the winners to the world once their shirts have been designed.

Congrats to Troy! I wanted to do my own honorable mention of Amy’s ‘Meal on the _floss’ – I thought that one was pretty clever, too!

Were the results of the dry T-shirt contest ever announced? Still mining data, or did I just miss it?
