Hi guys;
I did some shirts for Jono for the community Leadership Summit, and felt
good about it.
So I'm thinking, how about some ubuntu-us-ca Tee's.
Any thoughts?

Re: [Ubuntu-US-CA] User Group Link

2009-06-24 Thread Ernest Rogers
Take it from someone who wants to get involved physically with a local group
( I live in El Monte, work in Lynwood), I really wish there was a group in
my neck of the woods that meets consistently, or at the very least post
there planed meetings timely so I can make an attempt to attend. It's for
this very reason that I started to communicate with Grant as it appears to
me he is passionate about this issue.

Truly

Hi Grant;
Have a look at www.cisinks.com
I have these system on three of my printers.
They reduce your ink cost by quite a bit.
I can print you out a couple hundred covers.
