Awesome New Shirt

Well, this is the hottest Pittsburgh shirt right now, and I love it.  You've probably at least read about it already, but here's a picture of it:

I think that it's complete awesomeness.  You can order one here at Compress Merch online.  Or, if you're over on the South Side, you can get one at CommonWealth Press, 1931 East Carson Street.

A New PittGirl shirt from Wear Pittsburgh

Well, you've seen the 'Minion of PittGirl' shirt, but here's the newest addition to the PittGirl tribute:

Basic, simple. I love it. Now who is going to be the first person to send the "I am PittGirl' shirt to Ken Rice? Find lots of styles and colors at Wear Pittsburgh

Steel City Pride

Here's the newest Pittsburgh shirt that I like. I really like the beat up, washed out vintage look. It's available on dark or light t shirts, plus I think on some stickers, too. And after we had that kick-ass win against New England, I have a ton of steel city pride :)

Finally, some more new shirts!

I just found some new Pittsburgh shirts on CafePress! Makes me happy. So, here's the first one I'm going to put on the blog, and I'll try to add them all to shirts-n-at soon. This one is Steel Curtain:

New PittGirl Shirt!

Well, the new PittGirl shirts are ready to buy. Think I might get one for myself. And they're reasonably priced (only $17.99 for the one pictured here). Also looks like there's a free shipping coupon for orders over $30. Go and check it out at WearPittsburgh! And here's the link to the WearPittsburgh Blog.

Well, it's been a while...

Yes, it has definitely been a while since I posted anything here. But between opening Downey's House, having a 5 year old who started kindergarten and designing my own t shirts, this blog was the first to be forgotten.

But, in honor of PittGirl, I've returned. And it looks like Woy is in the middle of getting some PittGirl shirts going. Not available quite yet, but I'll let you know when they are. Here's the graphic for the first shirt:



And here's the post over at Wear Pittsburgh.

The Dormont Pool

Here's a shirt I found which will donate a portion of their profits to the Dormont Pool. The Dormont Pool is the second largest pool in the state, and really needs some repairs. And, whether you realize it or not, swimming season will be here soon. So, here ya go:

Finally, some decent weather!

Well, the weather gods have smiled upon Pittsburgh...finally. Although it wasn't really too bad of a winter, I think we're all happy to see the sun and wear something other than long sleeves and pants. The past 2 days have been fantastic, and today doesn't look too shabby, either. So, in honor of the sun returning, here's the shirt I've picked for this weekend:

So, enjoy the weather. And rest up until the next round of playoff hockey games start! Go Pens!

Go Pens!

Hey, in honor of TWO playoff wins in a row for the Penguins, I've chosen this shirt-of-the-week. It's going to be hard to wait until Monday for another game!!

Hang in there, kids. And even though it's going to be chilly this weekend, the grass is green, the trees are budding, and it will be warmer soon!

I've been crazy!

Well, I haven't exactly been able to keep up on all this web stuff lately. We've been busy getting things together for the opening of our bar/restaurant. When? Well, we're at the mercy of the PLCB, so who knows. But we're planning for everything to close sometime in April. Which would mean we would be open sometime in May. So, because of my sheer slack-a-tude here, I've decided that our logo would be the shirt this week. Here it is, in its...um...glory.

I did the logo all by my lonesome. Let me know if you like it. If you hate it, just wait until I'm not so stressed...then you can tell me that you hate it. If you want to learn more about the restaurant, you can go to downeyshouse.com. Oh, and this isn't an April Fool's joke. I still have to figure out what I'm going to 'fool' my kids on today. Gotta get creative!

I love a parade

Well, this design isn't exactly a Pittsburgh design. But because of the huge parade today, I've chosen this shirt. Word on the street is that they're cracking down on the drinking outdoors for the parade. Guess we'll see how that goes. I've also included the shirt that I'm going to wear today, if you care. And the shirt that I WOULD have worn today, if I wasn't all grown up with kids. So, here's the shirt in celebration of the parade:

Here's the shirt that I'm wearing today:

And here's the shirt I WOULD have worn today, if this was 1998 instead of 2008. (I sure did have fun in 1998).

Be careful out there, kids!

Just One More Week!

OK, kids! One more week until what is arguably the biggest party day in the 'Burgh...the day of the St. Patrick's Day parade. Drinking commences at 7:00 a.m. and continues until, um, Sunday. I've picked out more than 1 shirt of the week. These are all, once again, from Notorious Apparel. If you order by March 10th (Monday) you can get them by Friday with Standard Shipping. If you're reading this after Monday, you can still get them in time, just upgrade your shipping option. So (drumroll please) here they are:

Is Sidney Ready?

Word on the street is that Sidney Crosby will be playing in tonight's Penguin game against Tampa. If so, AWESOME!!! So, here's a shirt a ran across on CafePress. Love it!

Go Pens!!!!

St. Patrick's Day is coming!

Here's a Pittsburgh shirt that's great for St. Patrick's Day! It says "IRISH PITTSBURGHER That means I can drink you under the table. Twice." It's from my store, Brainlint.net. Seems to be my biggest St. Patrick's Day design. Somebody last year bought ten of them, and they live in Florida. Damn, Pittsburghers are proud!


So, go and check it out here

A great loss...

Banksville Streaker

Banksville Streaker Light T-Shirt

Well, if you're from Pittsburgh you probably heard about the Banksville Streaker earlier this week. Yup, right there on Banksville Road. Love him? Buy the shirt. It's the 'Shirt of the Week.' It's brought to you by Notorious Tees The same shop that brought you one of my other favorites, Onoroto is a Jagoff.

A couple of new designs

Hello everybody! I've recently added a couple of new designs on Shirts-N-At.
Here they are:

So, go and check them out. I'm planning on adding the greeting card section in the next few days. There are some really cool photos on greeting cards!!!

Where Have I Been, You Ask?

Well, I've been pretty darn busy. Screaming kids, new websites, and we bought a bar/restaurant. But right here, I'll talk about a website. I re-did Shirts-N-At. Now it's all pretty and sparkly. And much easier to get around. More shirts there, too. And other stuff. If you go to check it out, you can also link to my other website projects at the bottom.

As for the bar, we bought a place in Robinson Township. All the official PLCB stuff is going on, but our big orange sign is in the window. Wanna know where it is? Become our friend on Myspace. Our profile is at www.myspace.com/downeyshouse . There's a little bit of info there, with more to come!!!

OH...I almost forgot the shirt. Maybe I should change it to shirt of the month?!?!? Anyway, here's a great design for Pittsburgh's 250th anniversary. Love it. Available on more than just shirts, too!

HA!!!!

OK, now I can get back to regular life after the holidays. Holy craziness. Over the holidays, that darn Dan Onoroto passed this whole 10% drink tax think. What an ass. And we're trying to buy a bar. Anyway, new shirt of the week!!!

Onorato's a Jagoff Jr. Jersey T-Shirt

Simple and to the point. Love it. Wish he never got re-elected. Will Pittsburgh EVER have another Republican around??? I hope so.

On another note, tough game for the Steelers last night. We almost pulled it out of our asses. But hey...the Pens have won 6 straight!
