    Me, on a shirt!?

    I had a great situation come up today. Our local High School mascot is the Highlander. And to raise money for safe Senior parties the school does several fund raisers. The class of 2011 is going to sell shirts. Low and behold they asked me, the only regular kilted man in town, to be on the shirt. The theme is Kelso Highlanders Rock! So I did my best rock poses, with and without a guitar, kilted. The bummer is the picture will be black and white, so the IOS won't truly be appreciated. I was quite flattered to be asked. It will be a bit, but when the shirts are made I will post a pic. Just thought it would be neat to let you all know of my local "stardom".

    As the money is all going to a good cause and the shirts presumably could be made to order, might I suggest you get a few printed up with just 'Highlanders Rock' or other generic tag lines like 'Scotsmen Rock' or even 'Jocks Rock'. This would make them more generic and you could throw them up for sale on ebay (or even here - I'd check with the Modorators first though to see if it's allowed). I'm sure if you price them sensibly you'd get a fair few takers.

    some similar examples with potential pricing are

    That's very cool and English Bloke has a great idea: put a generic version out there on eBay and earn the school some extra $$!
