			<description><![CDATA[Man, Jess Fink's work is great, but this is particularly swell. It reminds me of the cover of Jordan Crane's &quot;Uptight #3,&quot; and that's not a bad thing at all.<br />
<br />
This is the first shirt that leapt out at me during the sale. Gonna buy it now while it's $16 dollars cheaper.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I was low on cash when this one came out and decided to gas up my car, rather than purchase yet another shirt. (We're all still waiting for a car that runs on ambient awesome energies.) Of course, by the time my next paycheck rolled out, this thing was out of stock in my size. But now it's back!<br />
<br />
It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.<br />
<br />
And it can be yours, too! If you're into that sort of thing!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[It seems like 12 Club members would have posts all up in here seeking to trade out unwanted limited edition shirts. I haven't seen any, though. So that leads me to believe 1 of 3 things: they don't happen; they do happen and I'm inattentive; they're not supposed to happen.<br />
<br />
At any rate,  I have Nautical Problem, designed by the esteemed buko, available in an XL.<br />
<br />
It's never been worn. I opened the bag, held it up in front of the mirror, and said &quot;that's a nice design, but it's not for me.&quot; And now I'm here. Peddling my wares. :/<br />
<br />
I'd like to trade for Dead Pirates in an XL, but Reach For The Light is nice as well. <br />
<br />
I apologize for my appalling ignorance of the social standard here, but I'd like to make a happy swap with someone.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[There seems to be a little piece of poop between the lucky cat and the lucky seven. Is poop some forgotten, but potent symbol of wild luck? Or am I maybe mistaking it for something else?<br />
<br />
(Please don't get me wrong. It's a lovely shirt. I'm just curious about this particular thing.)<br />
<br />
<br />
EDIT!! It has come to our attention that the pile's not poop, but rather, it is a little pile of scratchings from the lucky seven (presumably scratched off by the lucky cat). ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Just received the shirt yesterday and I gotta say, the design looks really good in person. But maybe it looks... too good?<br />
<br />
My cat climbed up into my lap, but when she looked at the lion print, she flinched. She tried to investigate closer, but couldn't overcome her very real fear of a 20 inch lion print.<br />
<br />
So good job, Keith. Your shirt scared a cat away from my torso. That's gotta be worth something.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[After weathering the storm of positive comments and stone temple dart traps, I stand here triumphant with my last submission score and a bloodied stump where my brush pen used to be. But this week-long run for cover has not been without pain. Whereas I didn't used to smoke, I now consume eight casket-shaped cartons of "Olde Glasse Tobacco Stickes" per day and have bitten the fingernails on my left hand down to the second knuckle.<br />
<br />
Now, sitting in a safehouse outside of Duluth, I await hearing whether my efforts have paid off or if a Threadless Strike Team is honing in on my location with a plane-load of giant enraged alligators (and a handful of free stickers).<br />
<br />
The smell of the perpetually burning swamp to my left is overwhelming my thought processes, but I'm left wondering...<br />
<br />
What's the best score that never became a t-shirt? What's the worst score to become a t-shirt? How do designers save their lungs and fingers during the arduous voting process?]]></description>

Man... this whole t-shirt process is nerve-wracking. Before it's through, I'm gonna be looking at a <a HREF="http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=wrack&db=*">wrack</a> of nerves. It's only been a day since it was submitted and I'm worried about how it's gonna be received.<br />
<br />
I wonder if other designers take this shirt business so seriously.]]></description>
