CNN Tshirts

my friend mark seriously had this idea about 14 months ago. he explained how neat it would be if current headlines could be made into t-shirts on the fly so the next day you could be wearing the most current events. possibly even before people hear about them. like mr. diggles blog posts considered for the bible or mr. diggles writes about t-shirts and stuff – the gems really.

well, cnn is doing it. if you go to cnn.com you will see a new nifty t-shirt icon they have added to their latest headlines. click on the icon and you can order a tee. to be honest, i would have never guessed cnn would have implemented this. if it is around in 6 months then we will know it is working.

i am curious how they figure who makes the cut or not. as you can see above, not every headline is cool enough to turn into a t-shirt. or maybe it is a matter of taste? Polygamist ranch kids to get DNA tests didn’t make it, nor did 20 bodies found floating near Bahamas. hmmmm.

yes john karr, even you could have a t-shirt floating around out there.

How in the world is “Looking for love? Watch your wallet.” NOT a tshirt?! Stupid CNN…
