And then they were gone again!

I've now sent out all the pre-ordered shirts, with two exceptions: 1)
Steinar Bang, I lost your address (again).  Could you send it to me?
2) Somebody else (who ordered two shirts).  I ran out of NOK50 stamps.

I got all the shirts I ordered in the colors I ordered and in the
sizes I ordered.  Golly!  With one-and-a-half exceptions: 1) There was
one order for an XXL blue shirt.  I got an extra blue XL shirt
instead.  1=BD)  All the black L and XL shirts were L/XL shirts, which
is somewhere in between, I guess.  I'm wearing one of these now, and
it fits me well.  The XXL shirt was too big for me.

The shirts are between 65-80% cotton and between 35-20% polyester.
(It varies from color to color.)  They are *fluffy* on the inside.
Snuggle-wuggle-bunny-fluffy.  Mmm.  I wonder how well they'll stand up
to going through the washer.

They weigh 420g.  I must say it feels kinda warm, but that may just be
because I've just come back from hauling two monster boxes of shirts
to the post office. =20

You remember the printing on the September Gnus t-shirts?  Kinda
see-through color?  I thought that was kinda neat -- thick paint has a
tendency to break up/off when worn a lot.  Well, these shirts have
thick paint.  Commie red paint.  I think it looks very good; I wonder
what y'all'll think about it...

The text ("People's Democratic Newsreader) *is* readable, but you have
to be quite close to read it.  Which is what I wanted.  I wonder
whether those tiny letters will survive repeated washings...

Well, I'll pack the remaining packages and let y'all know how many
shirts I have left.  First come, first served and all that.
