ode to jeddah's t shirts

ok so after much diliberation i have decided to play my own top 5 fav go game at the start of each blog entry. First i just want to say i pay no attention to grammer and spelling in my blogs. i am openly aware that there are mistakes. i embrace them as they make me unique and who i am.
top five fav stupid movies that i have memorized
1 zoolander " i did it matil! i turned left!"
2 robinhood men in tights " Achoo! did you say a jew? in england?"
3 Dodgeball "looks like the average joes are forfitting cotton. bold strategy lets see how it plays out for them
4-Space Balls-"they've gone to PLAID!"
5-talledega nights- " if i wanted my kids to be wimps i would have named them dr.quinn and medicine woman"
*these are subject to change. i might have a different list tomorrow

ok now the meat. I really love to travel, and on each adventure like most other people i bring home a little trinket. For some it is spoons or shot glasses, or others key chains and magnets. For me its T shirts. Not the cheesy ones they sell at the air port with air brushed horses or wolves that say in cursive "wyoming", but random funny ones. Actually its not just from road trips, its where ever i find them. its usually the words or phrases that catch my eye, maybe its the bright color or picture. For those of you who know me in person, real life jeddah, you have seen such shirts. Heck, i have even gotten a couple from the guys section at wal mart and jazzed them up a bit to my liking. let me tell you about my few favorites.

FLYING J TRUCK STOP PURCHASE- i love the flying j truckstops. so whenever i see one i stop. Who knows what you'll find inside those magical stores. My last stop was in may in cokeville wyoming. I was headed back to salt lake from visiting my family ranch in idaho. I browsed the t shirt rack labeled "3 for 10". how could i go wrong. There in the middle of hundreds of the previous mentioned air brushed wolves and buffalo t shirts was a single white and red t shirt. i saw no other to its liking. it was all white, but with a red bottle cap on it. and with font red and bright to mimic the coca cola logo it read "the real thing, every this is better with jesus christ" i had to buy it. the statement is very true and it is a missionary tool
DI IMPULSE BUY- last summer i went to the DI for the 1st time. i was looking through the t shirts, all diffrent colors and sizes. i wanted to find a big pajama size t shirt to sleep in. as i pass through the xxl shirts in the mens section i see a white shirt with bright huge pink and black letters. it read "My next husband will be normal". i had to get it. Why? cause that is so funny. it was in the guy section, people out there marry enough crazy people that there is a need for that t shirt, i am not married at all, and its hot pink.those points all factor into its humor. a few weeks later i wore it to clean the church and i got pulled over by the police. i had that shirt on and frizzy unkempt hair it was early in the morning. so no make up and no real effort.my overall appearence wasnt my best. i felt very white trash that day
DOLLAR STORE DELIGHT- this shirt is by far the most shocking and controversial. I was at some discount store with my ex a few years back and i found a blue shirt with white letters that said : i love israel i want peace". such a true statement. i had to have it. upon my return home i realized that on the back it read "i am a zionist". well wearing that to work was very interesting. Heated debates about israel and palestine followed me everywhere. i had to google "zionist" to be sure what exactly my shirt was promoting. My dad finally told me that it was just too touchy a subject lately and i should put it away. he didnt want me to get car bombed or abducted i guess. so its in my closet waiting for a more peaceful time, sitting next to my watch tower pamphlet with the little boy petting the panda bear. someday those kinds of peace will be achieved.
So those are just a few of my many. I have a bunch of others, local bands, my brother's old football team shirts "one goal one victory"(so dramatic!) i've collected some from boys i once loved, airforce, wrestling and such. A few more political ones "trees are the answer". that one is funny because who knows what the question was? all we know is that trees are the answer. jeopardy? lets take flora and fauna for 600 alex. "trees are the answer" ,"what is large form of vegitation growing in the forest", who knows how that shirt came about. tonight i added to my collection during my trip no, pilgrimage to cabelas. the front says "deer hunting is my life" and on the back there is a huge picture of a white tale deer. ( if you dont know what that is please go to cabellas and see the hundreds of dead ones there) it also reads on the back "ruts, racks and rifles are my world". this is funny because i have never gone dear hunting. i didnt know what racks and ruts were exactly till i asked my ranching cousins, and i have never had the desire to shoot a deer. "i dont have a gun let alone guns that necesiate a gun rack"-waynes world. so its funny. so i had to have it. it was that or a bass fishing one. deer are cuter than bass fishing.
