Death of DT



Stopped by my old dorm today. I made the visit because when I was in the neighborhood, I noticed that they were putting the wrecking ball into my bedroom. Literally. No, seriously, I think if you look close, that's about where the wrecking ball is. Fifth floor, R Hall, facing the basketball court. I was there Summer, 2001.

Goodbye, Deseret Towers. I know it's your time to go, but you were young once. I started my college career with you. Those were good times. Sorry to see you go.

WORLD'S GREATEST!

Big news everybody! We're here at the Provo Towne Center mall, and I
just saw him. The World's Greatest Dad just walked by! I mean, right
here in Provo of all places! See, I know it was him from his shirt, it
was bright orange, and had really big bold lettering, and was tucked in.
Other than that, he looked like any normal guy, I wouldn't have even
suspected anything. Glasses, about 5'5", and two little kids with him.
Lucky kids, being the progeny of the WORLD'S GREATEST! Congratulations,
man, you did it! We're all really proud.

Free Finals Shirt

How are finals treating you? Here is an idea. Convince me you have THE
WORST finals schedule, and I'll give you a shirt. Any shirt, any size.
Post your finals horrors in the comments section. If you don't want your
email to be publicly viewable, you can email me instead. Qualifying
finals nightmares will make their way into a future post. When finals
are all over, I'll announce a winner.
Hope that helps things become a little more tolerable.

GOOD LUCK!

Design Contest (Again)


Okay, here is the gig. Between now and Christmas, which really isn't that much time, you send in your designs for a new T. The design MUST be:

1) Original
2) BYU centric
3) In-offensive (mostly) to faculty and students. These will be screened.
4) Really, absurdly funny

On Christmas day, I'll publish to the world the best designs, as chosen by me, my roommates, and...ummm...my family.

THEN, between Christmas and New Years Day, YOU VOTE for what we should print. I imagine this will be a limited run, so make'em good!

In exchange for your design, YOU GET:

1)Three Prints of the T (in any size you want, for you and 2 of your homeboys)
2)$30.00 Cash Money

Send in as many submissions as you want.

Technical Specs: Design submissions should be no more than 3 colors, and in an SVG vector file format.

So DO IT TO IT! Send Submissions to austin@cecilismyhomeboy.com

Viral

This is an oldish video, but I don't think it ever made it's way onto the blog. Enjoy.

That's a great...ugly...face I'm making right there.

It's Official, We're Alive Again.


Well everything is up and running, I think. If you see anything that looks awry, email austin@cecilismyhomeboy.com and let me know.

We've got the old classics, of course, but we've got some new stuff too. We recently acquired a handful of nice American Apparel T's with various prints on them. Great Christmas gifts, if you ask me.

For future reference, the link to the shop is over on the right, but you can just click here to get there this time.

So enjoy, and stay tuned kids. We're going to have another design contest and more events and designs to come.
