The Booman Tribune Store is now open!! You can visit the store by clicking on the link at the top right of the central boxes.
All Booman Tribune merchandise is sold through The Tee Pad LLC. The Tee Pad is owned by Wolverine Writer, who is a college buddy of mine, and a good friend. He will be doing all the fulfillment…at least for now. You have probably noticed The Tee Pad advertisement. He’s been a sponsor of BooTrib since day one.
We have four products that are available for advance orders. Way back when, we did a poll to determine what the community wanted and y’all voted for coffee mugs. Here is the description:
You can place a pre-order now, for delivery to your door by July 25!
We also have t-shirts in two styles, as well as an XXL variety.
Here is the women’s shirt. It’s white, with navy trim.
We also have the following shirt in ‘Athletic Heather Grey’:
Here’s a description of the shirt:
All the shirts have the logo on the front and the motto on the back: “We won’t rest until they’re frog-marched out.”
The XXL is only available in the grey.
A lot of people have asked why I don’t ask for donations. The answer is that I can’t legally accept donations because the technical owner of Booman Tribune is a Limited Liability Corporation. In order to accept donations I have to offer something in return. I will be working on setting up a subscription feature like Markos uses at Daily Kos. Basically, it will enable you to turn off the ads. For now, you can help support the site by purchasing some coffee mugs and t-shirts.
If you have any questions or complaints or ideas, post them below. And remember, Wolverine Writer is a good friend, but he sends me horrible emails accusing me of terrible immorality on a near daily basis. So, don’t be afraid to treat him with withering abuse.
“horrible emails accusing me of terrible immorality on a near daily basis” ?????? Please. As if you wouldn’t deserve them if I did. And I firmly deny doing any such thing. No, I vehemently deny it. Really.
What do you mean: “I will be working on setting up a subscription feature like Markos uses at Daily Kos. Basically, it will enable you to turn off the ads.” Turn off the ads???? What about the value of my advertising dollar? I think you should adopt the new annoying placement of the ad column between the posts and the nav bar over at kos….. ;]
a trouble maker. You need to leave work and take your vacation before you cause any more mayhem.
It is definately time to leave. Now if only my boss would leave…..
40 minutes and counting…..
Cool! Any chance of some day getting mugs with “Froggy Bottom Cafe” on them? And, personally, I’d love one with “Don’t Be Cattle.” In fact, it would be cool if we could order mugs with our fav sig lines, along with the Boo logo, of course.
You guys aren’t busy enough, so I thought I’d make more work for you. And how about a t-shirt that says, “Commit an act of terrible immorality. Vote Republican.”
trouble makers all of us, sheesh … I was thinking that I would buy anything at any price out of some serious gratitude…. but I really can’t stand sleeve bands. I’m tempted to have a little tank top made with just “Booman Tribune” printed across the chest.. but then I’d need to find some illicit way to give money to BooMan. hmmm…
doesn’t have the sleeve bands. It’s a regular tee, good for men or women. You might like that.
I hear my name being called . . .
I just ordered two mugs! But I want them now. This delayed gratification stuff is vastly over-rated.
you placed the second ever order for BooTrib merchandise!
I’ll do the best I can with the whole gratification thing…
Well, damn! And here I was hoping to be Frist for once.
P.S. Thanks for all you’ve done to make this possible, WW.
😛
You’re the Frist Customer, aren’t you?!
Happy to help out Boo, and very happy to be a part of an exciting and vibrant community.
what you keep telling your wife, but…
“Vote Republican. It’s easier than thinking.”
would consider froggy bottom merchandise (or whatever else) if the demand was great enough. I can tell you, though, the mugs are much more expensive to produce and more expensive/difficult to ship.
I always thought it would be cool if custom shirts could be made to include the user name as well, sort of an ad for the blog and the diarist. (I realize it would be pricy).
Cool, though. It would have to be done along with a whole run, and they actually have to burn a screen and the whole bit–we’re probably talking at least an additional $25 per to have the name screened on, and that is if we had a batch to do all at once.
