I think Translink and the MTC likes me... (Muni? No)


I got this in the mail just a few days ago from the folks at the Metropolitan Transportation Commission, my own Translink t-shirt!

They also mailed me a second little gift, a Translink logo USB memory key.

The handwritten note I received from one of the administrators at the MTC mentioned: "Thank you for your support of Translink" and somehow they also have my address. Now that I think of it, I did register my address with Translink.

With all the blog postings about my personal support and ideas for Translink, I think the folks at MTC is looking for a partner to keep on promoting them.

I have to say, this shirt is one of a kind.

At least I have some public transit allies out there, unlike the folks at SFMTA/Muni... heee heee haa haa haa (in an evil tone).

But I wonder why they decided me to send these two nice gifts? Was it that unofficial Translink mob trip I participated in? See video below:



Lastly, I'll be on a much needed vacation, and I'll try to post while I'm out of town. But it'll be one quick posting because the frickin' internet is not free.
