Please Read This Carefully or else it will seem like I've become so intoxicated by my own vanity that I'm losing my mind.

Announcing:

I've always had lots of ideas for various t-shirts, and I know that Richard, among others, has clamored for a t-shirt featuring this image that I made for a WeeNDAY last year:

Inspired by that, I decided to nut up and make a Cafe Press store. Actually, since I'm not a white t-shirt fan, I had to make two to get more t-shirt color options.

Right now I've got four items total. The Zoloft T-shirt, Rio de los Suenos, A Sean shirt featuring his latest, and my favorite, poem on the back, and The Official Phoenix Rivers T-Shirt made out of organic cotton.

Here's the thing, I don't expect anyone to buy any of these shirts. My expectation is so low for this store it's not existent. The truth is that I made the store for myself. These are shirts that I plan on buying for me. This is evident by the fact that I am making no profit off of any of the shirts. These are rock-bottom prices.

I'm not telling anyone to buy anything from the store. I'd almost prefer you didn't just so I can be original. But, if you've got to consume, then consume. The economy could use the help.

Here they are:

Enjoy. Or Don't. See if I give a shit.

Honestly Charlie, you think I didn't consider that?

Here's the way I look at it:

One: The chance that Deep South Products Inc. is going to stumble across my little Cafe' Press store (one of MILLIONS) is so remote that I deem it a non-issue. Besides, do you think anyone in Fitzgerald, GA knows how to operate a computer? I think not.

Two: I did consider the said law suit before making the shirt and the Rio de los Suenos shirt is the first that I plan to buy. Then, I will announce its retirement.

Problem solved.

I've got to get one of those Sean shirts, if nothing more than to freak Sean out every time I wear it.

Not to toot my own horn, but I love the Sean shirt. Eventually I'd like to make a wide variety of Crafty Pillars shirts as new poems arrive. Ideally I'd like to have some featuring Sean's original artwork too. Just completely freak him out all the time.

Only one thing about the shirt...that's not the full poem! The last two lines bring the whole thing together:

dribble slowly down life's crippled path

You spelled "disguise" wrong on the Zoloft T-shirt, dude.

Please forgive me. In my defense it was 4:30 in the morning when I made the back design. So, I will fix it when I get back to my computer in Montevallo.
