The store is open…

For the last several months, almost a year now, actually, I have been kicking around the idea of a Cafe Press online store for the blog. I first got the idea from Frank Turk (aka: Centuri0n), who says he makes very little, but does good and fun things with his store.
So, I have a bunch of designs, that are more harsh in nature, but given my recent broken heart over the vitriol that I myself had been spewing, I have not published those designs at this time. I may rework them, I may use them “as is” some day, or I may never use them. However it goes, I am not ready for them yet.
So, my store is cafepress.com/12witnesses. In it you will find the “I am a Missionary” T-Shirt I designed and showed way back when. There is one for boys and one for girls. You can choose one of several dark colors for the shirt.
Also, there is an oversized coffee mug with the 12 Witnesses logo wrapped around it.
The fast seller with two cups sold prior to the actual debut of the store is a coffee cup, regular sized, with a logo for Merle’s High Test and a quote from Villa Rica. The two cups? Purchased by Villa Rica, himself.
Full disclosure: The way Cafe Press works is that I provide the design, they put it on stuff. I get to set the price above their base price, which is low - about $1 for me off of each item sold. When you order it, they make it and ship it to you. They put my money in an account and hope I’ll spend it either in my own store or in one of the others around. I might just do that.
Have fun.

How long before we can expect the “Art Rogers Christmas Album,” in which you sing various renditions of Ave Maria and O’ Tennenbaum?
Or if you’ll create a pair of boxer briefs emblazoned with the “12 Witnesses” logo, I’ll buy ‘em.
You moneychangers. What’ll we do with ye?

I’d like a video of Art, singing Ave Maria, while wearing his “12 Witnesses” boxers…
Or, you know, not.

I knew you’d eventually sell out to The Man.

Marty,
I thought you were The Man…

Wes,
He was.
Marty,
Did you really just say something to me about selling out?

Why only black/dark color? We go to Mexico in the middle of July. Black is mucho caliente! Very hot! Probably 10-13 degrees hotter than white to the wearer. When it is already 105 degrees no one needs the extra heat!

Mac,
Black isn’t the only color. The reason for the darker shirts is that the lettering is in white and it shows up better on dark.
I will look into doing dark letters on a lighter shirt, if you are interested.

What next - Baptist Blogger boxing gloves? SBC Outpost post-it notes? Attorney Notes embossed notepads? You’ve got the contract on the water globes of the new chapel at SWBTS, don’t you!? I knew this blog was just a big marketing scheme.
