my t obsession.

So,I found this t-shirt (via StyleBytes). Is it not just amazing? Oh how I loves me some T. What, you say? Who is that? Why it's Mr. T of course! Born on the South Side of Chicago (what what), he started out as a bodyguard before landing a part in Rocky. He then starred on The A Team.

(I would embed it, but I don't know how. Maybe someone can help me out with that?)
Anyway, he then moved to Lake Forest, a suburb of Chicago. The people there still dislike him because he removed some old growth trees from
the property (This gets a mention in Dave Egger's book A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, a good read, by the way) To improve his image, he made a motivational video called Be Somebody...or Be Somebody's Fool! That's where the point of this post comes in. Basically I want you to see this video, from the show:

Is it sad that I actually like some of the outfits?

Finally, I would like to finish off by showing you my final project for ceramics. It's a...drumroll please...Mr. T(ea)pot!
Yes, I'm very proud.
