As many of you know, I was in New Orleans for three days and left right before the hurricane hit. I was probably the last person to leave the city in an unalarmed fashion.
So now, a week later, I am safe and dry on high ground, thousands of miles away from the disaster.
When I was in New Orleans I purchased a dozen tee shirts. The price was right, three for 10.00, and the tee shirts were actually quite colorful. I have recently started wearing them and I am getting a lot of stares from people. (the animals remain indifferent)
The stares I am getting are not hostile stares, nor stares of admiration, but simply blank, undefinable stares. They just stare at my tee shirt. It's becoming a bit unnerving.
What do you suppose this means? Are they angry? Do they think I am being disrespectful?
I'm going to refrain from wearing the tee shirts until you guys give me the proper guidance.
Thanks for helping me find my way through this personal crisis.
Just wear them inside out.
You didn't state exactly what the all the shirts say. I'm not really sure what I would do if I saw someone wearing one. I wouldn't think it was disrespectful unless there were sayings on them that were inappropriate at this time.
The threads would show. It would ruin my sartorial resplendency.
You could hang them on your wall? Or use them as oven-mitts.
Do you have any dogs? Tie one in a knot and let the pooch tug at it.
By the swamp? Surely you suggest...
Then spray paint ILNY with a giant heart over it.

Nothing inappropriate.
Well then, I wouldn't worry about it. If you like wearing them to draw attention to your sartorial resplendency then by all means do so.
Perhaps it's your hat they're staring at.
did you by any chance forget to put your pants on?
Let's put it this way... you're a sight to behold.
Actually, under his overalls it won't show up at all..
I feel so bad for ya, Gus! I don't know what else to say.

Calamity..
The overalls were funny.
But why in the world are their barbie dolls randomly inserted in the pockets?
Maybe it's not the T shirts that are causing the problem, Gus.
I wonder if it could be the fact that I look like a Greek God? Maybe my powerful muscles straining against the flimsy fabric of the tee shirts is causing all the commotion.
Or maybe it's because I painted the head of my weiner like a pirate and have it protruding from my watch pocket.
These are all possibilities.

Of course. That's it! You got it!
Problem solved!

Well that's it then, that's why people (especially women) were staring, they just just couldn't get enough
Yeh. I think it was the freckles on his knees..
Stumble It!
