We know tees aren’t the perfect thing to wear all year round. We can’t all live in Miami and So Cal. To make sure our fans in cooler climates stay warm all winter, we’ve introduced a line of fleece hooded sweatshirts. They’re available in a variety of colors for both men and women. Order one today and snuggle up!
We watch a lot of cable news in our household. We like to be informed. Mostly we watch MSNBC because we’re such bleeding heart commies, but I digress. Anyway, you know you watch too much cable news when their anchors start showing up in your dreams. Last night I had a dream that Campbell Brown, Anderson Cooper, Dana Bash, Wolf Blitzer and Lou Dobbs all broke into my house.
I was walking up to my place and saw that most of them were hanging out on the stoop watching out for cops. Lou Dobbs was inside looting the place. He’d broken in with a crowbar. He’d totally busted up my front door which I’d just recently replaced. I was pretty pissed. I cornered Lou Dobbs and told him to get the fuck out. I told him I’d just bought a brand new front door and he’d broken it. I went on to tell him that since my house is ancient, I had to have that door custom-made for my non-standard doorway and it was extra expensive. He pulled out his wallet and tried to offer me $3.00. (What kind of burglar offers to pay for the damage he’s done? Lou Fucking Dobbs, that’s who.) I told him I didn’t want his lousy $3.00, I just wanted him gone and told him that this is why his ratings suck and he’ll probably get canceled.
So yeah, a street gang comprised of CNN hosts is pretty ridiculous. Dorkiest gang ever. Of course it’s even dorkier that I had a dream about CNN hosts instead of real celebrities. I need to start watching more E! or something so I can dream about ice skating with Kardashians and Ryan Seacrest. Otherwise, I wish at least Rachel Maddow would pop into my dreams. I hear she makes a mean martini.
Some of you may recall that I rescued an abandoned cat this past spring. We named him Bigby, which is how it’s pronounced, really his name is Big B. as in Big Bad Cat. This cat is definitely big (17 lbs) and definitely bad. Some of his favorite antics include hitting us, trying to trip us, trying to steal our food, trying to maul us when we trim his claws, and trying to paw at my wife’s boobs. This cat is a straight up thug. I guess you can take the cat out of the street…

Any way, my wife has insisted we get this cat a muzzle for grooming. Who knew they even made cat muzzles? Well they do, and this is some freaky S&M kitty gear. Just in time for Halloween even. Too bad we can’t make him hand out candy, he’d definitely scare the children.

All this kitty’s mischief inspired my new pirate kitty illustration. Check him out, he looks just like my bad cat.

I’m excited for the new Where the Wild Things Are movie and it inspired my newest illustration:

A few more new illustrations are in my sketchpad and will be online this week. I’ve been doing more sketchpad illustration lately (usually I do more digital) just to change things up.
Don’t forget I’m still looking for inspiration, share your t-shirt design ideas on Facebook and win two free tees.
I have a new favorite website: Zooborns. It’s an entire website dedicated to pictures and videos of baby critters from zoos all over the world. The cuteness is almost unbearable.

If you’re a regular around here, you know we give a free tee away every month to one of our Facebook fans. Of course this is a giveaway of chance, but now we present a contest of skill:

The gist is you suggest ideas for t-shirt designs on our Facebook wall. If we use your design idea, you get two free tees! You can read the fine print here.
