T-Shirt Update

The first batch of the Sod Off Swampy t-shirts are getting printed this week. They will be only available in Large and Extra-Large*, as none of us are emaciated vegans. They will be printed using the finest carcinogenic inks on genetically-modified cotton (I wanted to use a swank Rayon/Polyester Blend, but THS put her foot down) grown in devastated wetlands; I'm sure you'll love them. The price is $20 US which includes domestic postage to US addresses; overseas stuff we'll figure something out. To pre-order please send me an email with quantity, size and your address and I'll get back to you with payment details, etc: mr_bingley AT mac.com


*THS adds: Bingley's a thoughtless bastard.All we need is a head's up before we order them (we're supporting a local business in town as opposed to Cafe Press ~ every $ kept here after Ivan is a good thing) and we'll have you small and medium sized folks covered.

Greetings Tim Blair and Tech Central readers!
*Update*A quick explanation of the artwork, done for fun and protest:


Coffee leaves, symbolizing the 'green' aspect', sprouted by Bingley, nurtured to 10 foot trees by THS
~ KYOTO; well, duh ~

You Can Get Your Very Own Right Here!

Yes, but some of us are all of 5' tall. And, while not quite as skinny as Ann Coulter, close. I suppose I could buy one and use it for a tent.

Ah, that's a good point. I guess there's only so many nightshirts one can have. I'll see what THS can do.

Bingley's a thoughtless bastard, Kathy K. I've often said so myself.

All we need is a head's up before we order them (we're supporting a local business in town as opposed to Cafe Press ~ every $ kept here after Ivan is a good thing) and we'll have you covered. Literally. Thanks loads for your interest, too.{:^)

"I guess there's only so many nightshirts one can have."

Given that this is the "Coalition of the Swilling", don't you mean:

"I guess there's only so many nightcaps one can have."

But JeffS, that would imply that there actually was a limit...

Sign me up! One large, please.

"none of us are emaciated vegans."

Yeah, but what about those of us who like to wear tight shirts? We demand small! Small, I tell you!

No sweat, Emily. That's what the super soaker is for.

Posted by: Ken Summers at February 22, 2005 11:33 AM

Any lady who wants a tight t-shirt will get one. This is my pledge to you.

"I think he liked the trousers."

"What about the trousers?"

"They were tight."

Posted by: Emily at February 22, 2005 12:04 PM

"Tight?"

"Left nothing to the imagination..."

Having been stomped by Charley, and kicked while we were down (albeit only at tropical storm strength) by Francis and Jeanne (Ivan passed us by but came back with some not-so-gentle breezes after being un-named and renamed), I can certainly sympathise with your motives, tree-hugging sister.

Heh. Blair and TCS too! Way cool, kids!

Posted by: Ken Summers at February 23, 2005 07:07 PM

Well, TCS links to the thread on Tim's, so it's not that exciting...

Posted by: Mr. Bingley at February 23, 2005 07:14 PM

The TCS guy also thinks you're from Australia, but whattya gonna do?

Raise a pint, get pissed and throw shrimps on the barbie! What else??

Posted by: tree hugging sister at February 23, 2005 07:58 PM

Works for me.
