New World Water

I recently was reading an article about this out-of-control BP oil spill quagmire and the long lasting effects it will have on our environment. The article also went on to outline the dire drought situations that some countries are currently facing. In many countries there is an extremely limited amount of fresh water available, and oil spills and pollution are endangering this most precious resource.

When I was reading this article Mos Def's song "New World Water" immediately sprang into my mind! Mos definitely dropped some knowledge about the world's current water situation. BP, Exxon, Shell and other oil companies have been reporting record profits, even after their majorly destructive oil spills!? To quote Mighty Mos (from New World Water) "they're the type of cats that pollute the whole shoreline, then purify and sell it for a $1.25". If you haven't heard the song, you need to take a listen to it and get educated. Have you ever noticed that EVIAN is NAIVE spelled backwards! Let that one marinate on your brain for a minute.

Get "YOUR VISION" checked

I hope you enjoyed all the barbequed meats, beer and pie that were in great abundance this weekend... I know I did, especially the sausage! Well to officially kick the summer off we have released a new tee and poster of "VISION TEST". This design takes inspiration from Helen Keller's famous quote "The only thing worse than being blind is having sight and no vision." How many of us have lost sight of the dreams we once had for ourselves; what happened to the goals we wanted to aspire towards? Well if you are working hard helping everyone else to fulfill their dreams and goals - maybe you should have "your vision" checked!

Did I mention that this design is also available as a POSTER! Cheers

NEW TEE PREVIEW

Here is a preview of our newest tee that will be releasing very soon. It's called VISION TEST and there will be a t-shirt and a print [poster] of this design. I wonder what quote inspired this design? Cheers

Want to sleep underwater?

The Hilton Maldives is celebrating their five year anniversary of the world's first underwater restaurant in grand fashion. They are converting their 12 seat dinning space into a private underwater suite for two. Here are some pics of the bedroom suites.



I have fallen asleep under the stars before, but I definitely have not fallen asleep 5 meters underwater before. You're basically sleeping in an aquarium! I wonder how much this underwater suite will cost for a night?



I need to hit the lottery.

Underpaid?

It has been widely reported that thousands of people are currently unemployed, but a much larger group have gone virtually unnoticed - the underpaid. Majority of these underpaid workers do jobs that make our lives much easier, even if we are unaware of the work they do. Well if you are underpaid this tee is for you:



This tee is a plexer (A plexer: is a word puzzle where words are made into a picture that stands for a phase or saying) that expresses what many of us are - underpaid. Wear this tee in protest.... and tell your boss you want a raise now! But don't get fired.

Greetings from St. Lucia

Well for Spring Break this year my wife and I decided to go to St. Lucia. Usually when you tell someone you're going to St. Lucia they say "Wow, that's great!" but then immediately have this look in their eyes like hmmm... Where's St. Lucia? Well it is a stones-throw away from Martinique, St. Vincent and Barbados in the Caribbean (now you know).

Let me say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself! If you go you MUST pull a chair up to the bar and order a Dirty Banana (I know it sounds erotic). It should be their national drink; I must have had 30 of them! Let me show you a few highlights from the trip:

Pic of the island and one of the towns located on the coast (Piton in the background).


The rain forest (which I didn't even know they had until I got there!)


The volcanic mud pit with heated mud flowing straight from the volcano up ahead. And YES I went into the mud pit and ruined my trunks and smelled like sulfur all day... and I would gladly do it again tomorrow if I could!


And lastly, the beaches with their white sand, coconut trees, and blue saltwater.


If you ever get a chance go checkout St. Lucia. You won't be disappointed... and try a Dirty Banana too! Cheers
