Plural of Miss

In society calendars (as opposed to pin up calendars) the plural of miss is Misses, often "The Misses" as in the "The Misses Davenport-Snootyface attended the ball with their father, where they were introduced to the Archduke of Wigglybottom." -Robyn 15:46, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Where's all the talk? This calendar is awesome! The style of humor is XKCD-quality. Congratulations to all involved. Juventas 05:56, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Printing and ring binding

Yes. So very very yes. Oui. Ja. This needs to happen. I vote for a 2010+Smarch Calendar. Just add January 2011 (with 32 days for extra hilarity) and call it smarch! I say put Dawidi as Mrs. Smarch (catchy!) and Ilpadre's lovley artwork on the cover. Also, if possible, I say add Owl's "Pitch" as sort of an introduction.

About the ordering, I think that sounds perfect, if you know where to get it done. I myself will want at least 5 coppies, so we may even need to order more. I also volunteer to headup the Vancouver/Pasific coast/North America distribution and would possibly be willing to finance that part of the project. Thepiguy 07:44, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Great. :) I'm pretty open to the smarch or no smarch question, but I think that we certainly should aim for 2010 for the ring-bound version. There's just some more organization to be done (compiling a list of potential buyers, finding a printer, etc.) and I think it's realistic to have it ready before the holiday season. Anyone in need for a great gift to your family? Also, I would suggest to create an equal price for all continents, distributing the estimated shipping costs on all buyers. Shouldn't be that much for printed goods anyway.

That said, me and myself will be on holidays soon. Please do self-organize or organize the others. I have the photos and shall provide you with whatever calendar version you have agreed on by end of September latest. :D -- relet 09:28, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Me Want!

Please add yourself to the list if you would buy one or more calendars. It'll be 2010, possibly with smarch. I currently estimate some 5 Euros + shipping based on a batch of 50 copies, but the mileage may vary slightly. This will help us decide when to give the calendar to the printer and how many to order.
