The one with the cat IS great! You always gotta squeeze a pet in there somewhere. Makes good photo.

But the BEST is when he gives the thumbs up!

“My, but this is some tasty sandwich!”

Wow, a bandwidth limit. Never reached that before.

Fine, I’ll remove the pictures **Giraffe** sent me that showed **nerissassippi** doing housework in the nude.

Let’s not make rash decisions…😉

Well, I dunno… if she’s covered in a rash, maybe he _should_ remove them… 😉

I’d rather see the nude pics of **Giraffe.**

You know, even though you’re crazy for making fun of my great shirt, this is really funny. You win this round, **Mullinator**!

**scout1222** , you’re a sweetie. I look forward to seeing _your_ pics after next year’s challenge. 😉

That bandwidth limit message makes me very nervous. It gives me visions of having to explain to my mother why I’m eating sandwiches out of the toilet on the Internet. (“But mom, they _dared_ me to!”)

I should add that not only is **nerissassippi** a total hottie, she _does_ do housework in the nude.

But you’re not getting photos. Ha! 😛

Yesterday I got to see the first picture before the bandwidth limit kicked me out.

Today I got to see through picture eight before the bandwidth limit kicked me out.

So…I offer to set up a mirror. We can’t have a silly bandwidth limit preventing the TM from seeing _true science!_ 🙂

Oh sure. You get to eat sandwiches that have been in the toilet _and_ you’re keeping the nude pictures all to yourself.

Some guys have all the luck.

**BUMP BUMP BUMPAROO!!!**  
Good news, y’all. Despite work being absolutely crazy the past few weeks, I got a hold of my guy with the t-shirt business and figured out something of a plan.

As I prepare the photos and get ready to send him the necessary info, I need numbers!

The shirts will be 100% cotton, and all white for picture clarity. For the price of having the coloring of the photos done and to help ease the price of shipping, I’m looking at $15 per shirt. Both photos will be on the front (you really don’t want to pay for color on both sides, trust me) and I’m going to figure out what font and wording to use with it.

i need numbers, folks! Let me know how many and what sizes so the man gets our order right.

E-mail me with questions, your numbers and sizes and addys so I can ship you your shirts (if you don’t trust me with your addresses, I understand, but I have no idea how you’ll get your shirts then).

This is an ordering process, and depending on how long it takes y’all to get back to me, this may take quite a while.

Yay!

Okay … I have recieved a few e-mails now, and requests to pay with PayPal. I’m not really sure what this is, but I think I’ve seen my wife use it. If it’s an Internet paying thing, don’t bother asking, because I refuse to sign up for Internet things like this. I just don’t trust it.

I’ll get back to you individually with my address for the purposes of check mailing.

And though it hasn’t been brought up, I want to mention that there is no money to be had for myself in this. The minimum t-shirt order is 31. I did my calculations on an order of 35 for a nice round number, including one for myself. Now, I won’t lie to you: assuming I get $15 for 35 people (or 31 even, but I’m sticking to my calculations) there will be about $40 left after paying for the shirts. This I intend to use to pay for shipping and/or stamp costs to mail the shirts out. From what my wife tells me about something she mailed the other day, this may really not be enough, but $15 for a t-shirt seems only fair to me.

We shall see …
