The Interwebs can be a scary place… it’s filled with weird people. Including MINIon #0317. As for design- This was for a John Cooper Works GP so it follows my rules for a GP.
As for MINIon #0317 it all started in 2009 in Oxford. Actually, before that online (see, weird people inhabit the Interwebs). We were taking a tour of the MINI factory while I started this comic/blog, and… You have to understand that MINI United in 2009 was the Eurpoean party celebrating the 50th anniversary of the MINI people from all over the world attended since it was held in England and most of the foreigners took this opportunity to visit the Mothership- MINI Oxford. So the factory was basically a Tower of Babel so many different languages, so many different accents, and then out of nowhere I hear a distinctly American accent! Listening in, trying to figure out where in the US this small group of people came from. Finally I introduced myself and discovered that we had been talking for months before online, figuring out, car rentals, accommodations, and all those silly questions that happen when you travel abroad. So along with MINIons #0028, #0713, #0714 we hung out at the event and then kept in touch afterwards, meeting when we can, but always making sure we get together for MTTS.
