ah Rex. you've made the big leagues now. I hope MNSpeak.com is ready to become a new rallying cry. And seriously, how stupid is Keillor for this? Unless maybe you've hit to close to home...?

Our legal system sucks some times. I am pulling for you Rex! Let me know if we need to put on the heat!

That blows. I'll post it in a Quickies tonight for my seething mass of readers. This will be interesting to both of them.

This doesn't surprise me, actually. G.K is insane.

So, can we assume that you are neither ceasing or desisting?

"WARNING: This shirt is not associated in any way with Prairie Home Companion, Garrison Keillor, MPR, The Fitzgerald, or, well, anything -- it is PARODY."
Maybe Garrison would be willing to compromise if you put that disclaimer on the back of the 'Ho'shirt?

i was at barnes & noble last night shopping for honors10 english paperbacks for breebs, and my eyes completely zoned in on garrsie's books. i think i smirked, then laughed at the ridiculousness of this whole thing when there's so much more going on in the world than getting all fussy over a (clearly) parody tee. sorry you are having to deal with this rex, and cliché to say, but good comes through bad sometimes.

Hey guys, it is not GK who is an instituted suit it is a giant company that owns the brand. And bottom line, "cute" as the T is, it is still brand infringement, pure and simple. Start a website called Wahoo! and see how fast your asses wind up in court. Don't make me choose between GK and RS. Please.
