post I [something] Cedar Rapids

Everyone loves Milton Glaser's classic I Heart NY t-shirt, but not everyone is from New York. This is a tragic circumstance best captured by the following Venn diagram.

This is very precise.

As you can see, some of us are from other places. Like me, for instance. I was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

And maybe I'd like a t-shirt of my own. And maybe my hometown has its own bizarre logo. And maybe I'm not that concerned about copyright laws. And maybe there's a crazy Web site that lets you design and print your own t-shirt in a matter of minutes.

I made this.

And maybe you have 13 bucks to spare and want one for yourself. So just click here already.

Cool. All the money is going to CafePress, which might be good since it means they're probably also taking on all the liability for my likely copyright violation. I did this a couple weeks ago on a whim, but now that the flood has happened back home, I bet there is some bizarre, vaguely dirty opportunity to capitalize by selling people Cedar Rapids pride objects. Like those NEVER FORGET flag and pin collections that sprouted up after 911.
