funny mexican shirts

This site seems to think that I am a world-renowned purveyor of funny mexican t-shirts. Well guess what? You're wrong!

While I may be a fan of funny mexican shirts, and the mildly amusing Honduran knock-offs, I offer none for sale through this site. There are no "Guapo en Guadalajara" or "Voto para Pedro" shirts sold here. As much as I'd like to sell them, I can't.

Don't blame me though. Blame US Customs -- you see, it was about a year ago that I came up with the plan to sell funny Mexican shirts on the internet. At the time, nobody was doing it, and I figured it was high time that good 'ole Brian here cornered the market. I bought 10,000 shirts (9,000 of which exclaimed "Más Cowbell" -- I'm still laughing at that one) from a reputable shirt-dealer in Mexico City.

Well, the second the order shipped, I get this call from some sketchy government agent, they said that my shirts were intercepted at the border crossing. It seems that they were "shipping" the t-shirts over the border by paying illegal immigrants to wear 10-20 of them at a time. Also, they all had a thick coating of premium Columbian cocaine on them (which I guess was a "free gift"). So, the border agents wouldn't let them deliver the shirts, and I never even got my money back -- good thing I paid in pesos! (I only lost five bucks!)

Later on, I heard from the guy I pay twelve cents a week to cut my lawn that during his "emigration," he noticed that a lot of the border patrol agents seemed to have a thing for cowbells. Those bastards.

Clicky on the extra-good links, ok? Good.
