At my very core though, I’m a realist. I understand that not everyone loves dolphins as much as I do, especially when they are emblazoned on a shirt with a bedazzler. In light of that, I have also designed an alternate version with a kitty face on the back.
I don’t suspect they will reach the same staggering sales numbers that the dolphin will, but I do think that the numbers will justify their inclusion in the catalog.
I’m thinking of doing a limited run of 10,000 shirts. I think that should be enough to almost, but not quite, cover my fan base. I’d like to leave a little room for jealousy and pettiness. I want some fans to be able to rub it in that they got a shirt and some other fan didn’t. I’m trying to create a hierarchy amongst my fans. A general pecking order if you will. I think a few superiority complexes is just what the doctor ordered.
In order to get this up and running, I’ll need a silent investor that will simply supply me with the money, not ask questions and basically stay out of my way in every possible scenario. I’m thinking about $10,000,000.00 should be just enough to get this enterprise up and running, but the investor should be prepared to wire me more money on my every whim. Also, there’s no guarantees in business, and while this seems like an absolute can’t miss project, the investor should be prepared to lose everything and not take any action against me for any reason. I look forward to hearing from any silent investors in the extremely near future!! I might also be willing to accept multiple silent investors, should the need arise.

Omar: I knew I could count on you.
Funny though, I really thought this post would get a little more play. Once again proving that I know nothing of the interweb and it's strange ways...
Is it just something I don't get - why the extra "E" in member? We all love memes, I'm sure, but I'm guessing - typo?
