    Laugh of the day (at least for me)

    My local comic shop made a t-shirt that's a parody of/homage to the Ramones logo; one of their customers is a designer in the shirt business, so he did it because it's cool and because one of the owners is a big Ramones fan. They made a bunch to sell in the store as a promotion, and it's been pretty popular with the comics/punk rock nerd set around here.

    Here's the Ramones logo and here's the design of their shirt:



    The four names are the two owners and their two most senior employees, and the eagle is holding a comic book and an action figure.

    Somehow, probably through a Google Image search, the design made its way around the world to Malaysia, where some bootlegger is selling it on eBay, probably because they think Comix Connection is a rock band:

    "No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix
