Of the shirts that are presentable enough to wear in public, it’s a tie between my Gibson T and my Who T. The Gibson shirt says “_American Made, World Played_” and has 12 different body styles arranged around a globe. My Who shirt says “_This Guitar Has Seconds To Live_” and has an image of Pete standing on tiptoe, about to axe his axe into the stage, Sadly, my all-time favorite Tees are too torn up to wear anymore. I had 3 that were all the same style with a small pocket logo and large image on the back that said “_Work Sucks, I’m Going To The Mountains/Going Biking/Going to Yosemite_”. ---

Not just mere zydeco, but **chank-a-chank**! What a fun place to visit.

My t-shirts are broken into two categories - shirts I’ve bought on vacation talking about the place I visited, and shirts from events (mostly 5ks) I’ve participated in. My favorite one is from a charity event I ran back in 2008, because I’m proud of what we accomplished. -D/a ---

Way too many shirts to pick a favorite, but a couple that get worn often: [When my debate girls need](http://www.comicwallpapers.co.uk/images/main/DC%20Comics/Wonder%20Woman/1280769/Wonder_Woman_Michael_Turner_886.jpg) [encouragement](http://www.graphittidesigns.com/shop/SUPERGIRL-SMILE-T-Shirt-by-Michael-Turner-L-A.html).

The two that I keep safe and only wear on special and geeky occasions are souvenir shirts from GenCon '94 and '96. (My NASA shirt is a polo so that doesn’t count). 🙂 But my favourite ever – now sadly less a shirt than a collection of holes – was hand drawn by my then girl-friend; a simple black fabric marker on white T-shirt rendering of the face of Grell’s [Jon Sable Freelance](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Sable). ---
