By the way, I really want that shirt.

Something strangely frightening and wonderful happened to me today, a co-worker approached me holding a box, followed by a big bearded man with a camera. Earlier in the week, said co-worker requested a 300dpi version of my one man band photo, to which I cautiously obliged. Was he sizing me up so he could eventually kill me and wear my skin? This was the only logical conclusion.
No. What he was doing was making a custom Furniss tour T-shirt from b-bam, a local custom printing company. Not only was the shirt completely awesome, but the site is awesome, too. You can choose to upload photos, customize text, add decals and more... but the best part? You can place these anywhere on the shirt. This isn't some crappy cafepress iron-on-design-goes-only-in-the-center process. For about $25 you can have the awesome t-shirt of your dreams (and who doesn't dream about awesome tees?). Thanks for the embarrassing moment, b-bam. Strangely, I was wearing the same t-shirt today as I was in the photo. I'll be putting bars up on my windows tonight. Thanks to co-worker Tom and Leslie from B-Bam!

Being that it would be kind of silly for me to walk around wearing a shirt that not only had my own face on it, but five of my own faces, this shirt will be used in a giveaway contest thing soon. Look for it!
