More Earth Week Celebration


The photo above is taken from the Russian Rainbow Gathering a few years ago.  I'm told this guy is a former master of sport.

One day was not enough celebration.  I feel it should be Earth Week.  In honor of that along with the two year anniversary of RFP I am creating some limited edition t-shirts.  These are going to be very special.  In keeping with the Earth theme, they are 100% organic.  I was trying for hemp but they were all gone.  I think Willie Nelson smoked all of them.  The shirts are a moss green color, again we are going with Earth tones.  The logo is the same and it is a cream color.  Black doesn't look right against the moss.   They will be ready next week.  I am not sure how I will distribute them.  You'll have to do something extravagant to "save the planet" or maybe protest against waterboarding, or shrink your carbon footprint.  When they are ready I plan on riding my bike to get them.  Speaking of going green my wife bought my son a car made by a company called Sprig which is made entirely out of recycled material. 


Unfortunately she drove to the store to get it in an SUV.  Believe me, I gave her a long lecture about carbon footprints and greenhouse gasses.  Our house is up for sale.  We are moving into Unabomber's old place where we will be off the grid and entirely self-sufficient.

    Scott - I highly covet one of them there new t-shirts. Here's what I propose to show my worthiness. I will begin the day by paying an environmental remediation company to check my kb's for lead paint. If I receive clearance, I will preform my daily sets of jerks and snatch. In between set, I will use my neighbors push mower to preform my first grass cutting of the year(screw you Big Oil!!!!) all the while listening to the protest songs of CCR and Crosby Stills Nash, to keep me in the right frame of mind. Let me know if I'm on the right path? I mean, if I need to plant a damn tree or something, I can do that too.

      You are definitely on the right track.  I think if you did all the things you mentioned whilst wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt you would be all set.  I am not sure what Che's actual stance was on the environment but as his image is draped across narrow chested lefties across the world, I gotta believe he would opt for paper over plastic.  In fact, I bet Che would bring his own bag and re-use it time and again.  If it weren't for those Washington bullets.

      I'll drop you an email when they arrive to get your shipping info.

      He does bear a slight resemblance to your Dad.  Make certain to point that out to him.  However he isn't the one I'd expect to see at such a place.
