Pittsburgh means construction...

Hello, and Happy Saturday! This week's shirt simply has a pic of the Parkway East, just before the Squirrel Hill Tunnels. This is for when you miss this view this summer. Many weekends you can't necessarily see the view any further than this. Oh well.....tis the season. Enjoy your weekend!

I got all fancy and grown up

Hello all! It's Saturday, and that means that I pick the 'Shirt of the Week.' This week isn't funny, or mean, or even sarcastic. It's nice. It's pretty. And I like it:

So how about that? I can act like a mature adult sometimes. And not just all fakey, either. I really like it. Go figure!

Down with Steely McBeam

One of the latest topics around Pittsburgh has been how much we don't like that damn Steely McBeam. For a multitude of reasons. I don't want the hatred to pass. I've signed a petition to get rid of that damn mascot (see brainlint.blogspot.com), and now I think that we should wear our hatred. Here's what I've done:

Polish Pittsburgher, baby

Ok, this week's shirt of the week is in celebration of two things. One is that this past Tuesday was Polish day at Kennywood
The other is that we're going to a festival in Carnegie tonight, and I know I'll be able to get some good Polish food.



Now, there seem to be some problems with the affiliate site for CafePress...no pics showing up. Hopefully that will be fixed shortly. This shirt, just in case there is no pic, says "polka" and has a man playing the accordion. Love it.

Have a great weekend!

Celebrate Steeler Season!

OK, in honor of the fact that there's A FOOTBALL GAME ON TOMORROW, I have chosen the shirt of the week with the Steeler Football Baby. This is old school, and I love it. Reminds me of my gram. Oh..and those hats they used to knit out of Iron City cans. I think we should bring those back!!!! Anyway....here it is:

Enjoy the game, and stay cool!

This week's "Shirt of the Week"

OK, give me a drum roll, or something. Here's the shirt that I've picked for the "Shirt of the Week"

I've picked this for two reasons. One is that it's near and dear to my heart...because I graduated from Langley High School. Quite honestly, people have been shocked that I went to a public school. Like I should be dealing drugs and working at a fast food place instead of having an intelligent conversation.

Secondly, it is to mark the fact that the 'Public' in 'Pittsburgh Public Schools' has gone away. Wear this shirt and tell your grandkids that you remember when it was Pittsburgh PUBLIC Schools. Whatever :)

Um....Little help?

OK, I've scoured thru CafePress and Zazzle. And quite honestly, there aren't a lot of Pittsburgh shirts out there worth talking about. And it bothers me that a lot of the shirts that I have on the Shirts-N-At site aren't even from people who live in Pittsburgh. Come on!!! There are plenty of creative people in Pittsburgh....get to work. Make something worth wearing!!!

I need another shirt for Saturday!!! Are there possibilities already out there? Yes. But I think that we need more.

Here are two shops that I think are great:
