Our pal “King Tut” turned us on to this fun and funny t-shirt designed and manufactured locally the old fashioned way: hand-drawn and screen-printed in the artist’s studio. In fact, he gave us the shirt off his back! What a good boy. Artist Auvrey makes these and others and hangs out in San Francisco’s Castro Gayborhood. This one takes off on the UC Berkeley “Cal” mascot. Got the colors down, too. We like it…even though we are Stanford Dads. Hah! Go Bears!

Emigrant: The Other White Meat?
I came across this delicately-worded plaque commemorating the Donner Party at a snowy highway rest stop on a recent road trip on Route 80, over the Donner Pass. Notice that it says many died…but not all. No mention of how the survivors survived. Also, “emigrant” is misspelled.

Happy Friday the 13th, Stud!
Killer body, dude! This take-off on the Friday the 13th movies is publicity for CCBC, a clothing optional gay men’s resort in the desert. Cathedral City, adjacent to Palm Springs. Looks nice. Day passes are available. We usually stay at Chaps Inn.
