Okay, how about this

I'm actually not clear on what email you want it sent too.

That was one of the haikus.
Good parenting is
the correct balance between
beer and coffee (not enough syllables)???

Parenting. The right balance between beer and coffee

Yay for wookie! Thanks for the entry!

Others can send their designs to contest at offsprung ...

I wish I could take credit for that one. But I'm not that clever.

That's AWESOME! (The Scream with "Freaks My Head Off".) I also adore the haiku about beer and coffee and would wear it anywhere.

And while I love "Eat a bowl of dicks" and "Kiss the widest part of my ass", I'd never wear anything that said it. Petchula, my inner southern prude just wouldn't allow it.

(Eh, and forgive my punctuation...I don't have time for punctuation at the moment.)

Ylime put a finger on something I'd not been able to articulate. While I enjoy the cruder phrases (and use them), it's beyond my comfort level to wear it.

I think I like "Parenting freaks my head off" on the front and "for help: Offsprung.com" on the back...otherwise it sounds like OS is freaky...which it is, but we would rather have that be a pleasant surprise, doncha think?

Sailor wore his Offspring shirt for Mo's birth. Unfortunately it died before Max was born. We plan on him having a clean Offsprung shirt in the car for when I go into labor with this one.

I also love this. It sums up our parenting philosophy in a nutshell

My vote goes to “Good parenting is/ perfecting the ratio/ of coffee to beer.”

That's the one I compulsively share with unsuspecting outsiders already. That quote and the Offsprung logo on the front, then Offsprung.com on the back.

Allrighty, the first version of the Offsprung shop is up here:
http://www.cafepress.com/offsprungstore

We are looking at other resources besides cafepress for getting t-shirts done with the verbiage you listed above, ones that allow you to upload an image AND add text.
