Yes. Er, I think it is. Unless I misspelled Christopher Hitchens again.

What got us in trouble with the Sgt. Pepper send-up was the right of publicity of all the people involved. While I'm sure that getting Derek and Swoopy's permission would be no problem (for example), getting Tony Flew's okay as Judas would be a little difficult. And CafePress' cover-our-asses attitude is "when in doubt, do not publish, period." So anytime Mooner puts a bunch of people's faces in one of his pieces, think to yourself "we won't be seeing this on a T-shirt," unless it's a bunch of people we know really well.
|
Indeed, getting Flew's permission might be a bit awkward. I don't seem to consider all these problems when I start a project. Me, I was too busy 'Shopping the image to think ahead.
I could redo it, with whited-out faces and blanks to fill in for the names.

I wouldn't sweat it. Not everything is destined to become a shirt.
But I do owe you one. I'd forgotten all about until right now. But I won't have time to do it for you for a while longer. Sorry. |

The image is too wide, and the faces would be too small to recognize when printed on a T-shirt.
But it was a cool idea none the less. |

The supper picture is hardly accurate! The reptile should have been a Timber Rattler!

Not only does he play with deadly reptile, but he has a coelocanth shirt too?
Man, Filthy is awesome! |

You too, can be awesome even without a rattlesnake.
Drop by and see these good folks and maybe get a way-cool tee for yourself.
The snake was very old when that pic was shot. He died a few years later at the age of 22. Due to a very sweet disposition, he was my all-time favorite presentation specimen. He is still sorely missed.

I bet he does! I put a milder herp into the Supper image because I was concerned that Tyson and Shermer might become nervous with a "hot" one being held between them.

That's an impressive venomous pit viper, there. The snake's nothing to laugh at, either.

Then it is evident that neither Tyson nor Shermer has ever been bitten nor tail-whacked by a good-sized iguana.
If they had, They'd probably prefer the buzzworm.

Sorta of a silly question... But how long do snake live in general? I never considered the question myself...
I guess it can be very long, considering sea turtles... I am not sure how variable it is, though... |
