Spotted!

Several months ago, before the election, I got an excited voicemail from my Aunt and Uncle in Baltimore, Maryland telling me they were driving down the freeway and saw a van with a bumper sticker that read "Don't Drink the Kool-Aid". Unfortunately the van took the next exit and they were unable to get a picture of it. Luckily I was driving home the other day and spotted a red 4x4 heading past the Nike campus with the very same sticker! Traffic seemed a little irritated that I stopped in the middle of the street to take a picture, and the driver was suspicious to say the least, but it was worth it! Well...sorta. The sticker was on the far side of the truck, it was raining, and all I had time to grab was my megapixel camera phone so it's not such a clear shot. Some of you will need a little imagination to believe it's really my sticker but I saw it clearly, it definitely was.

I still have the stickers for sale and in fact I have been pleasantly surprised by how popular they've been since the election. Demand has dropped off for sure, but not at the rate I expected. In fact, I've taken the time to add shirts, coffee mugs, bags, tank tops, magnets, and a few other items as well. If you haven't had a chance, go take a look. Who knows, you might find something you like.
