The Perils of Popularity

Flash was asked several weeks ago to march in the July 4th parade by the local Democrats. Part of this, I believe, is they like to show off their Navy folks. But maybe they just feel Flash is particularly Democratic, who knows? Last night at the F.E.T.C.H. dog park, our mechanic Paul leans over and asks "so I'm sure you're marching with Flash in the parade with us, how are you going to decorate Flash?"

Oops.

So now we're committed to two groups, I hope Flash commits to one or the other soon. I did buy a hell of a lot of decorations for him, so whomever he marches with he'll do so in style.

Sadly, I have not been able to find a t-shirt that reads "Ever heard of a hot piece of elephant?" over a donkey profile, so I'll be wearing something suitably dull - my red Preppy Priestess golf shirt with a colorful pin on my sunhat. Hell, I get inspired enough, I'll buy a few balloons for Flash.

"Ever heard of a hot piece of elephant?"

Damn...you nearly cost me a laptop with that!! If it isn't a T-shirt, it should be!

I'll get one made for the elections. First time Cafepress has let me down, lemme tell you.

Glad the laptop survived!

Hmn...I was really hoping for a profile of a donkey, not a red-white-blue one. But that might work.

Thanks!

You can have whatever t-shirt you want, but I need more than a day's warning. :-)

Aw, thanks that would be super and might make you a few bucks in the process.

Lemme think about it. I'm sure I can come up with something suitably unsuitable. :)

I like Herb's find better, but this one would do too ...

I want one of those T-shirts you're looking for! And pictures of Flash (and you).

A picture of Flash is already up, I'll take more tomorrow while we're working in the Bookstore.

Pictures of me, well that will take some bribery. ;)
