Hey there G’s & G’s
For Todays Tshirt of the day I thought that I would go for something quirky and fun.
Wandering Bert is a new Springleap designer with a vault full of cool design power.
This one is called Breaking and Entering.
When you think about it a bank is really an oversized piggy bank, that just needs to be smashed in the right way…while our little cartoon thieves may go for their very appropriate gigantic hammer, our real world thieves will use drills and code breaking programs.
Imagine a team of criminals broke into a bank with the use of a gargantuan hammer…it would have to be ACME brand without doubt hehe.
Although with that said, I don’t think anybody has tried using a wrecking ball to get to the cash…I guess you are more likely to bury the loot than free it.

After finishing work late you end up wandering down a dark street on your way home.
The moon is blocked by menacing clouds…the street is deserted and has an eerie calm about it.
When suddenly there is a rustling in the bushes to your left and the right a low inhuman moaning follows and then a banshee like screech.
Panic stricken, you begin to run, faster and faster, but there is no escape from the speed of your attackers…you look over your shoulders just in time to see the glowing eyes and the frothing maws of the possessed predators as they close in…
Yeah sounds like something out of a horror movie right?
Well ok so maybe I have embellished just a tad on this one, but the attackers are something quite different than what you were probably imagining.
Nope they were not swift moving undead, or savage vampires….but cats….yes that’s right, cats.

Hi there guys and girls.
Todays Tshirt of the Day by Gimetzco is called Be Somebody and is drenched with a humorous take on the whole shrink & patient relationship.
Stressed, experiencing sudden bursts of anger or depression triggered by Oprah episodes? “Tell me about your mother”…that’s what some shrinks would ask you I guess haha.
Yep psychiatrists claim to fix your brain and turn you into better human beings, whether it works or not depends on the patient I guess.
To tell you the truth the first thing that drew me to this design was not the clever meaning behind it, but the actual cartoon shrink riding the dragon…I think it’s absolutely kick bum.
The clever play on the psychiatrist and his patient is just an extra for me…I suppose this design means different things to different people.
For me personally the Be Somebody design makes fun of psychiatrists who think they have the answer to figure anybody out and fix their scrambled egg brains.

Whoa Nelly!!!!!!
Nope it’s not a Hoochiemamma shirt…this one is about doping in the Olympics….of the equestrian variety.
Two days ago I read an article about a German horse that was busted for having a banned substance in its blood…this came the day before the jumping event it was supposed to take part in.
The German team of Christian Ahlmann and his horse Coster were shocked at being kicked out…well Christian was shocked…the horse just kept on eating.
In Athens the German team were stripped of a Gold medal for the same kinda thing….you would think that they would learn.
The day after the pair were chucked out of the Olympics, a further 3 teams were disqualified for a banned substance….”a”, does that mean it was all the same drug?
I now suspect ninjas of climbing into the horse boxes and injecting them with the dubious drug…why? well, for the money of course.
Funny how a big bunch of medal hopefuls all get their horses busted on doping charges….coincidence maybe? There are NO coincidences dammit.
The winning teams were America and Canada…both of which have the capital to pay off a ninja clan.
But in all seriousness this is a real blow to equestrian events at the Olympics, I know so many people who raise their eyebrows at the idea that horse riding should even be considered an Olympic event…I personally think that horse/animal related sports at the Olympics is doff.
It’s a celebration of human achievement and while people do use sporting equipment like say a javelin or a hockey stick as a “tool”, I don’t think an animal is quite the same.
look, I may be way off base here, I’d love to know what you all think of this one.
Do you think horse events should be part of the Olympics?
Duncs.
Riders and horses disqualified:
Germany: Christian Ahlmann and his horse Coster
Brazil: Bernardo Alves and his horse Chupa Chup (what a sucker)
Ireland: Denis Lynch and his horse Latinus
Norway: Tony Andre Hansen and his horse Camiro (isn’t that the name of a car..or is it Camaro?)
