Special Edition Autographed T-shirt
 Just the other day we issued our first ever Autographed t-shirt. Right above the "Made in Honduras" label is chicken scratch that reads "Micha Weinblatt," reminiscent of a third graders first attempts at cursive. But we're not here to judge my pathetically uninspiring signature. We're here to celebrate the first in a series of autographed t-shirts. The original recipient of this special bonus was my brother's girlfriend, Julia Friedman. She is the only person I knew whose excitement and cheeriness warrants such a special first time gift. But now that we see its success, we are considering autographing 1 out of every 1,000 shirts we ship, for a yearly drawing to tour the Crooked Monkey's funny t-shirt headquarters, meet the staff, and possibly become the next CEO of Crooked Monkey.

Back at the University of Maryland
Crooked Monkey is a big supporter of the University of Maryland and its endeavors. I always like to remind people that Crooked Monkey got its start selling Fuck Duke t-shirts. What humbled beginnings. We ran through the dorms, selling from door-to-door, getting chased out of buildings by RAs and police. But that did not stop us. We wanted to make sure that ESPN and everyone else out there watching the game new that we hated Duke, and that Testudo bent the Blue Devil over and gave it to him from behind. Since those early days a lot has changed, but a lot has also remained the same. We still produce awesome t-shirts--just now they're refined and legal. We still sell t-shirts--just now we sell to retail locations with business licenses and permits. We still run from the cops--just now its cause these guns are illegal in 48 states. So yesterday we joined the Dingman Center for Entrepreneurship at their annual marketplace. We even made the front page of the Diamondback, the University of Maryland school newspaper.

Hitting for the cycle on Election Day
 What kind of person would I be if I didn't live out the recommendations that I suggested on this blog? Not a good one. Yesterday I went on the Election-day-free-circuit tour around Potomac, MD. My family and I voted at around 3PM. We then hit up Cabin John Mall--where we killed 3 birds with one stone. With the "Yo Vote" sticker in hand, we got our free coffee from Starbucks. Juiced up on the coffee, we sprinted over to California Tortilla--where we not only got a free taco, but also received a coupon for another free taco. Ezra Weinblatt, my brother, and I enjoyed those tacos and then hit up Dunkin Donuts for our final campaign spot of the day. I then went back to Crooked Monkey and purchased a couple of new t-shirts from the warehouse, at a highly discounted rate. The picture shows us satiated on free goods and prideful of the wonderful, robust democracy we live in.

Crooked Monkey cares
 This is a pretty big election. Tomorrow we elect the new leader of our country at a pivotal time. I don't envy the next president, as he will have to deal with a deteriorating economy, global warming, and a nuclear Iran. It's not a position I would seek, and I do question their judgment for running in this election. But hopefully one of these candidates for president will turn our country around. We're not endorsing any candidates, but we are encouraging voting. If you vote tomorrow, email us and we'll give you 25% of your t-shirt order. Just email us and say "I voted." And we'll send you a promo code. Here are some other promotions that cool companies that care about our world are running: California Tortilla: Local to Washington DC, they are giving out free tacos if you have the "I voted" sticker Starbucks: An up and coming National chain of coffee beans is giving out free coffee Ben and Jerry's: The coolest and most socially conscious entrepreneurs are giving out free ice cream. If I was you, here's how I'd hit for the cycle. Wake up. Vote early (and often). Swing by Starbucks for your morning fix. Then hit up California Tortilla for lunch, and top it off with Ben and Jerry's. Then when you're bored at work, check out our funny t-shirts and grab that t-shirt you've been wanting to buy yourself or your friend at a highly discounted rate! The best thing about this blog post is that it was inspired by Noam Weinblatt, my brother. He's driving all the way home from college to Make a Difference and wanted to make sure that I give a shout out to voting and all those great companies encouraging it.

Halloween means Free Burritos at Chipotle
 We don't sell Chipotle burritos, and we rarely endorse other companies on this blog (unless were paid handsome amounts), but this is a pretty fantastic promotion that Chipotle runs every year. Chipotle produces the best fast food burrito around. Its no competition. As a vegetarian I've always wished that they introduce tofu to the menu, like Moe's does. But even without the Tofu, Chipotle's burritos are second to none. I also love Chipotle for many other reasons. Their marketing is brilliant and right up our alley. They are always looking for reasons to give out burritos. They probably give out more burritos than we give t-shirts. So today go to any Chipotle after 6 and wear some foil. If you're really into the whole environment thing then you can just take some foil from a previous customer's burrito. Reduse, reuse, recyle.

Forget about Sarah Palin, check out Crooked Monkey Hotties
 Crooked Monkey's teaming up with thezoi.com, the College Greek telephone directory. I met the founder and his team last year in Los Angeles. It was a good time and we talked about teaming up, because we both have the same audience. After a year of preperation we're going to be doing some cool cross promotions. The first thing we'll be embarking on is advertising on his site. Luckily, we had that hot steamy photoshoot over the summer. Bottles, Models, and wet t-shirts. Here's our first ad for thezoi.com, and it's really our first banner ad ever. I'm quite proud of it. Shout outs to Richard Greenhouse (the photographer), the one and only Laura (our longest standing model), and Kelly (the designer who brought it all together).
