Key West is a tropical paradise, with fresh fish, beaches, and good cultural events at ones fingertips. It's also a tourist destination with numerous t-shirt shops selling the most bizarrely obnoxious t-shirts you can imagine. Some are offensive and others are just stupid, but all of them make me wonder, who is it who buys these t-shirts?

Rather than reading my blog, which is boring and never gets updated anymore, may I suggest you read my comic, which is at hitchedcomic.com
I am officially no longer a DJ at WLUW. Long story.
However, the Chicago Independent Radio Project will have a webcast soon, and I'll be a part of that. And we can still talk about music... leave me a comment if there's something on your mind.
This blog is hosted by Blogger, but all the images, plus the rest of my personal and professional sites, is hosted by ULTRAsurge.com. They have very cheap rates available for sites like this one, that have low-bandwidth needs.
