Here's an absolutely lovely tee from the heads over at Ropeadope that happens to be chock-full of some crazy British flavor. And while I normally abstain from posting a lot of the loopy, ultramodern collage designs, I'm willing to make an exception for this one.
What can I say? I guess I'm growing soft in my old age.... C'est la vie.
P.S. Oh, before I forget... If you pay close attention you should notice that the bulldog in the design is rocking a saftey pin thru its eyebrow. That's a brilliant little flourish that warms the cockles of my crusty inner punk's heart.

I feel as if I'd be remiss if I started posting again and didn't mention this lovely shirt for Katrina relief from the fine folks at Mule Design. Countless people have sent it our way along with sternly worded letters asking why we're sleeping on this. So hey, look! We're not sleeping anymore...
Now if you've ever ordered a shirt from Mule, you might notice that the asking price is a bit higher than normal. If that's a problem for you, just remind yourself that all the profits from the sale of this tee are going to the Red Cross. Doesn't that make the pill a little easier to swallow, you cheap bastard?
So, I'd talk about the shirt but it really manages to speak for itself. Actually, it doesn't so much speak as it does shout but that's sort of the point of it. Well, I assume that's the point. You tell me why else someone would put a large white design on a red shirt...
Still, it's a nice design and the money's for a good cause. So go buy it. Or don't. *shrug*

Much like Philip K. Dick, I've sometimes found myself wondering if androids do in fact dream of electric sheep. Of course I was very young and very high at the time, but that's sort of beside the point...
Now that I'm a little older and a lot less high, I know that androids don't really dream. Well, they don't yet... Still, I bet there are at least a few that are rocking some pretty awesome screen savers tho. And while I'm pretty sure that After Dark never had an electric sheep module, the flying toaster thing is still pretty awesome. Besides, screen savers are close enough to dreaming for things with silicon and copper brains, right?

As I walked down the street today I passed a exceedingly cute indie rock chick in a Paul Frank tee that was tight in all the right places. Since my penis does most of the thinking for me, I gave her a quick once over hoping she wouldn't notice that my eyes were lingering on her chest.
Well, guess what? She noticed. But instead of being bitchy about it, she shot me a grin and a look of recognition.
Her: "Hey, aren't you the guy who does Preshrunk?"
Me: "Uh, yeah... That's me."
Her: "Alright, cool. I thought so. Love the site."
Me: "Thanks."
Her: So why exactly have the posts been thin this month?"
Me: "Well, work's got me busy. So much so that I feel burnt out by the end of the day."
Her: "Oh, that sucks. Is work going to keep you that busy much longer?"
Me: "Probably, but I sure hope not..."
Her: "Yeah, me too. You're fun to read when you actually update."
Me: "Oh god. I'm really sorry about that."
Her: "If you're busy, it's cool. But can you do me a favor when you get less busy?"
Me: "Depends on the favor."
Her: "Do you think you could find a nice, girl friendly hoodie? I'd like to order one before it gets cold out."
Me: "Tell you what... I'll see what I can find, okay?"
So here you go, cute indie rock girl whose name I can't recall... I really hope you dig this geektastic hoodie from the folks at Veer. And if you don't, c'est la vie. At least I tried.

Okay, I know what some of you are saying... "He's not even back for 24 hours and he's already pimping a Threadless shirt?! Christ. How does that bastard sleep at night?"
If you guessed "on a very large pile of t-shirts," you're right. Honestly, it's really not as comfortable as you'd think... But that's not the point.
The point is that this shirt is raising money for an extremely worthy cause. You see, for every one of these lovely ten dollar shirts that are sold, Threadless has pledged that they'll donate twenty bucks to Hurricane Katrina Relief up to fifty grand.
That's pretty nice of them, isn't it?
So what are you waiting for? Go buy it and help some people already! And that goes double for those of you who haven't already sent a donation in to any sort of relief fund...

I'm sure that the copyfighers in the house will get a chuckle out of this shirt from Teetsy. Well, at least the copyfighers who are still reading after my two week tango with writer's block should be able to manage a chuckle.
Sorry about that by the way. I'd say that it'll never happen again, but we both know that's a load of horse shit. *shrug* I'll try, which is really all anyone can promise to do at this point.
So did anyone do anything fun while we were gone? I grew a beard. Well, it was more like a really long five o'clock shadow. Besides, it's not as if I set out with the intention of growing a beard. It's more like I sort of stopped shaving.
But hey, why should I go and argue the semantics of sporting facial hair when I'm just happy to be back? Who's to say, really?
