I've gotten a few links to interesting CafePress merchandise today. You can now get the Immortal Pinkoski's slogan, If you doubt this is possible, how is it there are PYGMIES + DWARFS?, on a t-shirt.

I love the Pygmies + Dwarfs bit, but whoever did the lettering really did a terrible job. It's almost illegible.
I notice that the cute critter at the bottom of the page is actually a pentapus. I wonder if that was intentional?

Oh, man, Pharyngula sold out! It used to be all about the squids, and now it's all about the Benjamins! Dude!
No, no...those are all completely independent creations. I don't get a penny from any of them.
