T SHIRT 101. I know the t shirt making game is huge now. Everyone is a fashion designer. But do you know what you’re doing? Thankfully, I’ve been doing this longer than I’ve been doing GR, so here’s a simple tip. Make your design. It could be good, it could suck. I can’t help you there. But follow this easy step. Print the thing out. If you have a color printer that’s great. but if not, then make it on a white shirt, and print it with a white background. Print numerous sizes of it, and figure out what’s going to work on a Large, Medium, and maybe small. Then print another one for the girl shirts. Try to have blank shirts in the sizes you care most about. Size does matter when making your shirt designs, do don’t assume this step is easy, it might be the most important step in making your design look right. An important tip is to cut the design out from the paper, and tape it on. I’d even have someone wear the shirt with the design on it. This is hwa-shi starting to cut up his design. This is going to be for GR. He didn’t want to print it out first to check it. I told him he should. “No one listens to the publisher.” He may not do this step again, and he’ll pay for it one day, but not on my watch.

We won our softball game. Ho hum right? But tonite, in the dugout some muthafucka let out one of the smelliest farts ever. We were doing alright, I think I just scored a run, and I walked into the dugout half way triumphant in my mind. I hear a bit of laughter so I wonder what the hell I did wrong. Booger hanging out? Did I run weird again? I sat on the bench next to my glove, and I took a deep breath. NO! The laughs had nothing to do with me and my lungs were fucked for a minute. It was sort of like laughing gas, I felt a shock, then a weird euphoric energy. I think that’s what everyone else was feeling too. Who done that? The big heavy dude Sean? Was it him? That belly might be a septic tank in disguise. Big Jay? My own cousin? He’s got octane, he’s a big fella, but he’s all about the powerful sound. I think he’d be proud of it. Martin! Was it that veggie burrito? Cousin Mike? Taking Vicadin leads to gas? Captain Hap? BK the innocent? Or was it silent and deadly Jake!? I don’t know his diet, and he doesn’t talk much. Peg Leg Greg? Or George, the guy who hasn’t played all season? That fart must have been memorable, since it’s the only thing that enters my mind about the game.

This could be embarassing, and I’m too mortified to look at the videoclips. So tell me how they are. I don’t know much about the Discover Nikkei site. I hope it’s a good one.
