I thought I'd keep this site to myself (at least in terms of blogging about it), but there's an article in
The New York Times Magazine now, so that's not happening!

If you go there, you can buy awesome T-shirts that are cryptic references to businesses, locations, and events in various movies. For example, you can get a shirt that's designed to look like you've visited Devil's Tower, Wyoming (from Close Encounters of the Third Kind), or worked at the Tyrell Corporation (who makes the replicants in Blade Runner). They're super cool!

I've emailed the owner of the site and deluged him with dozens of ideas for other shirts - I'll try to post as many of my lists as I can remember here - feel free to send ideas to me, and I'll pass them along!
