I'm In Boise
On my way to Sundance 2006 (Yay!). Pulled over to a motel in Boise, which oddly enough turns out the be the exact one myself and the two gals stayed in on our way through for Sundance 2004, and I hadn't even remembered

Craft some wacky design and put it on a T-shirt. Think of an original line you think is funny and draw a character saying it to another character. Voila, web comic! I saw Natalie Dee's site, immediately worked on a couple of funny ideas and sentences and within hours had a shitty paint program and a cartoon. I didn't hesitate, I didn't weigh the pros and cons, I didn't doubt myself, I just drew it. I usually always do those things, but I took the power (that you have, too!!) to stop myself from doing them and I created. The exact same process allowed me to write my reviews. It really is simple.
Take my lead, Mark! Use my break-through as your own (as I know our hang-ups are generally the same). You want to create T-shirts? Well, then come up with a couple little phrases or funny drawings. Don't brainstorm, don't wait for perfection (it'll never, EVER come), and don't ask us what we want on a T-shirt. Just come up with a few ideas, draw them out, and start asking people which one they want to buy. That's the key.
My challenge to you is to not write another blog entry (I'm beginning to think these things are incredibly destructive to the creative process) until you post an entry containing the first three (or more) T-shirt designs and the only text should ask us which one we will plunk our money down on and what colors we can order them in. This should be done within 36 hours (Thursday afternoon at 2:05 p.m.). This is your challenge.
