Please Buy a Shirt!

I was reading on the RFT’s website recently about how a local woman, Joan Metzler, had sold something like a THOUSAND “Brave Enough to Live in America’s Most Dangerous City” tees when the report came out a little over a year ago that St. Louis was controversially ranked as “America’s Most Dangerous City” by Morgan Quitno Press. You can read it for yourself here. For some reason I was completely oblivious to these shirts when they seemed to be all the buzz locally and it seems a bit silly to buy one now (especially since the most recent report had us dropping to 2nd place, behind Detroit). Guess I wasn’t getting out much back then or something. Anyway, my point is… if she can sell a thousand of those shirts for $20 a pop (and on eBay, no less), wouldn’t you think I might be able to sell maybe TEN of the ones I just designed (see previous post)? If I can sell ten, then I can upload some new designs… not like I have a bunch or anything, but I do have a few more ideas. But so far I haven’t sold ONE yet. So, please, come on… help a brother out!

    Seems your shirts just aren’t as controversial and CHEAP as hers. That’s all, put simply.

    Besides I moved away because I was tired of all of the crap, violence, cussing, domestic violence and constant gunshots; coupled with extreme apathy on the part of most of the citizens, police & City Govt. and the fact that they are operating all that they can on cheaper than a shoestring budget …..because they gave the city away to all of the few new businesses that took a chance and opened there; w/ deferred taxes …… sometimes for over 10 yrs.
