Hey, I invented that! Bad, bad, bad Beck missed the boat once again

I invented red clay mud dyed clothing.
Years of kids swimming in a pond in all manner of clothing. Not just swimsuits. Mostly cut-offs, t-shirts with underclothing still on.
All whites turned a lovely color I named ‘Mudclay blush’

I was waiting on big manufacturers to come calling wanting my rights and paying me the Big Buxx$$$.
Yeah, I’d be rolling in the dough.

Well, I waited too long.

I was watching ‘Dirty Jobs’ some yahoo in Hawaii stole my idea.
He’s dying t-shirts with red volcanic dirt. The jerk.
Granted Hawaiian volcanic red dirt is way cooler than Arkansas red clay mud. Still.

I thought of it first. I just know it.
I should get a stipend or something.

Yeah I’m writing a strongly worded E-mail.
Maybe get Lawyer Licky-lips on it.

This always happens to me.
Everytime.

Dang-it.

Just out of idle curiosity, are there many active volcanos in Arkansas?

Just me :blush:

(We do have a diamond mine)

I used to have one of those Hawaii “dirt shirts,” which I bought when we went on vacation there a decade or so ago.

Does the Arkansas version have a possum on it?

See, all I needed was a marketing guy.

You’re hired.

I have red clay shoes, and red clay trim on the bottom of my white jeans courtesy of Road Atlanta mud. But I never thought about trying to sell them beyond the racing audience.

I’ve seen a Texas version
