Burning down the house

 

The Globe Theatre, famous for being the venue where Shakespeare performed his plays, burnt down during a performance of "Henry VIII" on this day in 1613.  Apparently they fired off cannons on stage and they ignited the blaze.  I can't confirm whether or not this was the inspiration for David Byrne's song, "Burning down the house."

I thought about turning this image into a t-shirt, but even I think it may be to obscure of a fact to sell a t-shirt. And I doubt it could compete with such gems as my designs for National Darts Day or National Waffle Iron Day:

Though initially when I asked for the chicken and waffle image, ChatGPT was still fixated on Young Frankenstein and produced this gem:

I just love the new image generator and it's lack of the ability to pivot from one design to another. Not that it matters. I'm still batting 0 for 0 with t-shirt sales despite my brilliant marketing efforts to sell the absurd designs.  Irony is, they are the types of designs I'd buy in an instant. 

And  I'm the only one who has.
