Well, it's just about the end of the month, and as I promised, I want to give away some free t-shirts to those who displayed the most "Smoking Lobby Spirit" during the month of May.

Ideally, this would be people who went and spread the word about smokinglobby.com and brought new people to the site to join in the debate. But all you really have to do is show the Smoking Lobby spirit by participating in the forum discussions! (this does NOT mean posting the most number of posts)

First of all, I would like to thank everyone on the site this month for coming back after the 2 major site hacks, and for putting up with lots of problems while I brought the site back online.

This month, those people whom I think showed the most spirit are linkup, Darkseid, and Lynda F.

linkup - for posting lots of newsworthy articles about smoking and smoker's rights issues.

Darkseid - for putting up with several site revisions which simply would not work on his antiquated 800x600 resolution screen! (and numerous cookie/login problems) Thanks for hangin' in there!

Lynda F - quite the Smoking Lobby Cheerleader, showed lots of spirit (and also had to put up with lots of login problems).

Your prize? You get to design your own t-shirt from the Smoking Lobby store. Just tell me what slogan you want on there, and whatever graphics you can dream up, and I will design the shirt for you and send it out. These shirts will also remain available in the storefront in case other people want to order them.

Thanks again for hanging at SmokingLobby.com!

WOW................thanks Bill..........I'm not used to winning anything............hehehehehe Laughing

Link-up, I already have a couple of perfect slogans for t-shirts in Arizona and you are more than welcome to use them. I got the idea from that friggin proposition for the "children's early education" program that the latest 80 cent tax increase is funding:

Support children's education - buy cigarettes!

Another one is:

Show some respect (on the front)

My smoking is paying for your child's education (on the back)

OR:

I smoke to pay for children's education (on the front)

What are you doing? (on the back)

OR:

Be nice to me (on the front)

MY smoking, keeps the taxman away from you (on the back)


Now to settle on one and a graphic...........I'll need a few days here Bill...... Wink

Lynda;
You can just give me the idea for the graphic and I can locate it/come up with it, unless you have something in mind. But those are all great t-shirt slogans!

I'm going with this slogan:

Be nice to me (on the front)

MY smoking, keeps the taxman away from you (on the back)

the graphic should be, on the back, of a govt official stealing my money (though I no longer by ready made smokes and make my own now.....but no one else has to know that......hehehe) or something like it. OR a graphic showing money from a pack of smokes going to "the children".

Can't you just add a note with T.

This T was designed and donated to you by one of our Arizona Members Screen Name "Linkup" on www.smokinlobby.com.

If you cannot do this then just forget the whole thing.
