It looks like we're most of the way to their $300 NoBS deal. (15x15=$225) For $3, I could live with white.
In fact, maybe we should plan to do that, and start a new list. Still need to charge for shipping, and maybe something for Doc...how about $10?
I'll REALLY ty to get some artwork up for y'alls ridicule this week.

Ok, I don't even want to hear about the resolution. This took 10 min at midnight-30, but it's the general idea of what I want. Something that'll go with Carrharts, not Dockers.

To all Concerned

Post by Leatherneck »

Guys we are getting closer and closer but we need EVERYBODY to pitch in on this. All you guys that have been lurking, post let us know what you would like to see, put your name down for a T-shirt or two.


This is not going to kill, maim or otherwise hurt you to do this. It is alot easier then changing plugs on your ride.

PM MNAIRHEAD and tell him you want ( ? ) amount of T-shirts and reach down and grab ahold of them and say I would like to see this on them also. Whoever has the best idea and the majority say " YEA" we will get.

Let's get on with this more important things to figure out. It's a fricken T-Shirt not like doing brain surgury here.

PM MNAirHead and let him know how many you want.

Is the design going to be on the front or back? Maybe a small, somewhat humorus design like the above on the left breast, and a bad ass color pic on the back.
Whatever happens, I'm in for 1 XXXL.
