Support this starving artist

As Google Ads isn’t quite turning out to be the pension plan I had imagined, with a CTR lower than my bank’s interest rates, I thought I’d try a different tactic. I’m now getting a fair amount of readers and hits a day*, a steadily growing stream of curious and consequently demoralized parties, and at least some of you must be interested in cheap, facetious tat. So as if starting a blog wasn’t enough of a bandwagon to jump on, I’ve also opened up a CafePress shop offering a small range of exclusive, hand-designed goods using only the finest Adobe and Autodesk software for your pleasure.

On offer are a selection of T-shirts featuring Mr. Mr. and Mrs. Mrs. characters, made famous by the Hollywodians post, for the boys and for the ladies respectively. For the latter also a nice T-shirt explaining how to pose like a true professional talento and a series of unisex apparel featuring square barcodes; walk around as free advertising for this site without knowing it!
Also for sale are two sets of mugs, featuring bowing instructions and the Game&Watch interpretation of working life and a motivational clock and mouse mat.

I’ve added a link to the sidebar so if you’re not already rushing off to purchase these items you could redeem yourself by doing it at a later date.

Should this prove sufficiently popular I plan to spend the first earnings on expanding the CafePress shop to allow for more varied goods, to which end I’ll be accepting design suggestions which can be communicated by e-mail using the link in the side bar.
