Run, run, run as fast as you can


 I created this design more in my response to running in general than in response to the craziness that is going on at the national level with the Presidential campaigns and people running for president. I don't generally address current affairs in my blog because by the time anyone reads this, it won't be current. In fact, years will likely have passed before someone reads this. But I do think it is important to note that Joe Biden has withdrawn his candidacy for President of the United States and endorsed his Vice President Kamala Harris. This rarely happens. The only time that I can recall is when Lyndon Johnson backed out and made a speech on television in 1968. He said, "I shall not seek, and I will not accept, the nomination of my party for another term as your President."

I don't know what Biden said. But it has through the country into even more chaos than it was after Biden tanked big time in his debate with Donald the chump Trump.  For awhile it seemed like Trump being elected was inevitable. Now with Harris in the race, I'm hoping the powers of good will overcome the narcissistic gasbag and his hordes of mindless rabble. 

But t-shirt designs must go on (as must t-shirts). I was too busy today hacking at horsetails on my hillside jungle with a machete (horsetails the weed, not horsetails attached to horses) to do many designs. And let me say that I kind of sympathized with Biden while I was doing yardwork and thinking "I'm too old for this shit."

I did manage to produce the Jason-esque image above and this one:


Gemini Cricket supplied the bones of the design before wandering off saying it couldn't draw people very well and was damn sure it wouldn't give me anything better than this one. I had kind of just wanted so big white type on a black background that read, "Are my eyes open?" I pictured it would be like my "What day is it?" t-shirt. But Gemini got all esoteric on me and pumped out this big question mark in the sky.  I was too tire to try something else. 

Oh well, I'll close because I think my answer right now is, "No, my eyes aren't open."
