Orders placed from our shop [The Convenience Store] will arrive in a custom white box. These prints are hand screened just like our tees and are therefore one of a kind. Enjoy!

I love these NKS
Hot Stuff sold out! Not really, I just found this and
remembered reading them all the time when I was younger.
The Real World/El Mundo Real
Yes. Yes. I realize that the whole idea of this blog thing is for it to be daily. Or somewhat daily. However, life by myself in this big house is just as boring as you think it would be. Hence the long, grueling wait for the next edition of 'The Real World/El Mundo Real'.

First, a picture for old time's sake:

Well, lo! AND behold! Castro Valley is keeping a Little Caesar's Pizza nice and comfy in the armpit of the city. (Quite hard to find, unless you're looking for an area to get your video rentals, banking, car parts, and various Raiders accessories needs taken care of all at once.)

I'm not sure if this is a known fact, nor how long this little miracle has been instituted by Little Caesar (Would that make it Augustus?), but any old average Hernandez can walk in there and buy a large pizza for $5.00. $5.00!!

Needless to say, I indulged.

Gas to get to Little Caesar's: approx. $1.00

One Large Pepperoni pizza: $5.00

Gas to get home: approx. $1.00

Realizing that the best pizza is from the closest pizzaria to your parent's house: $7.00

TODAY's STORY/INSIGHT:

Naked Printing
Today was ridiculously hot for the middle of May, and our industrial fans have yet to be installed in the shop. Okay, so I wasn't actually screen printing naked, but I was about as close as you could get. Needless to say, Taylor was pretty surprised when he stopped by. I would of posted pictures of that...but you know...
and of course a random shot of stumps:

Inspiration

Been busy putting together the designs for our Fall Line as well as the Select Artist Collection I & II. I've been going to some unique places for inspiration, I believe you all will enjoy it.

For now, here are some more random snaps:

More Boxes
We've been putting together custom printed boxes with every order. I already posted on this a few weeks ago, but decided to show a couple that we shipped today. These are both from the Planes tee, a design that is a couple years old and still looks good!

Campo di Bocce
Had an awesome time playing (or attempting to play) Bocce ball in Livermore this past weekend. It was a great resturant surrounded by vineyards with indoor and outdoor courts. I'm in love with their Marioesque logo.

New England / New York
Here are some pictures from my recent trip to New England. An amazing adventure through the country roads of New York, Handicap Hotel Rooms, rude tourists (my philosophy is that if you are touring someplace in your own country and a rude, oblivious foreigner enters the scene and almost pushes you into Niagara Falls, they take the "Tourist" label, and I the "Victim" tag), awesome food, and amazing sights.
One of the Vanderbilt Mansions. The richest family in American history.
by Blake Kincaid
The most famous of the Vanderbilts (some blue-blood of a guy whose name escapes me at the moment) had a networth of some ridiculous number which, when compared to today's economy, would have been about $100 Billion. After all of this, the mansion was sold to the U.S. Gov't. for $1. One George Washington!
This is NYC, you may be surprised to find that this city is a little crowded.
