The ORIGINAL; unfortunately, W has brought it back out of the archives.
Edited on Wed Apr-19-06 09:16 AM by Atman
Check out my web site. I found the very first t-shirt I ever created, back in my early activist days in 1980, a rather grim "SAVE THE HUMANS" graphic, complete with exploding earth and flying bodies. I took money out of my savings account and advertised it in Rolling Stone Magazine. There are only a couple of them left in existence, as far as I know. But maybe it's time for a fresh new print run, thanks to Crazy Dubya.

My First T-Shirt - "SAVE THE HUMANS"

1. YOU THREW THEM AWAY?!?!?!?!
What, are you nuts???? ( ha, ha, no offense Atman). That was a great graphic, and you'd probably do very well if you came up with another one. Believe me, I've moved about 12 times and I know about lugging certain stuff with you.

Keep us up to date on your progress, if you decide to do it. I know I'd like to have one.

2. I sold most of them, but I had a box left
After moving a couple of times, we tried to thin out all the crap we had. My wife grabbed a few in differnt colors and tossed out the rest. Yeah...seems like a pretty dumb move now!

4. Actually, I was thinking of doing something just like that
Wasn't sure how I'd word it or fit it in...I'd like to re-use the same old graphic, just update it a bit now that full-color is so much easier to do. Thanks for the suggestion! It's obviously a good one! LOL!

6. Was it the blue one with the whale?
Wasn't mine. That was a direct rip-off of my ad in Rolling Stone, which featured a whale saying "You guys helped us when we were down, now we're here to return the favor."

I never understood the bumper sticker...it said "Save the Humans" but had a picture of a whale on it.

10. Way cool! Thanks so much!
Things have been slow for a while, but the latest BS from BushCo is getting people interested again. I have a few new designs I need to get out there, too. Time for some black shirts!

Thanks for the endorsement! It's genuinely appreciated!
