I have a lot of t-shirts. I mean A LOT. And I usually wear a t-shirt every day.
At the end of 2005 I had the idea for this blog - starting January 1st, 2006 I
would wear a different t-shirt from my collection every day until I ran out of
shirts. Shirts could not be repeated. Each day I was to take a photo of that
particular day's shirt, tell everyone a little bit about it, and then post it
all on this blog. I also encouraged my readers to send me shirts to keep my
streak going, but that didn't work out so well. I think I got two or three in
the mail. The rest of the shirts were mine.
The SASHDISH experiment lasted from January 1st, 2006 to June 5th, 2006, or
something like 152 shirts! Was this pointless? Probably. But so is most of the
stuff on the internet.
After SASHDISH ended, I got lazy and stopped checking in on it. Then the company
that owned the server that stored all of my images went out of business, and all
of the photos were lost. Someday, when I'm bored, I'll go back and repost the
images. Until then, I still have all of the individual shirt descriptions up, so
you can read about each one. And here's a photo of the first 100 shirts:
SASHDISH 100.
In case you're wondering, I got rid of most of these shirts. However, I'm still
a t-shirt-a-holic and now own just as many (if not more) than I used to.

The Police
Front: The Police -- Outlandos D'Amour
Back: nothing
I love The Police. Preferrably the early stuff. I hate Sting. Can't stand the guy. Can't stand his music. But The Police -- now that's some good stuff. One of my top five favorite bands, maybe a top three.
Once, while at college, the editor of Rolling Stone magazine (David Fricke) came to campus to speak. I went. At the end of his presentation, there was a question and answer period. I asked him two questions: One, had he ever interviewed The Police; and Two, did he think The Police would ever reunite. He said yes, he had interviewed them, a few times. And he said that he does not think they will ever reunite. Sadness.
