Weird thing...only people who recognized them were young folks. Made me feel kinda freaky when the teenaged girls at the QuikTrip were the only ones who winked & nodded.

They may not have been winking at you because of the shirt.

I'm young-ish and don't know who's on your shirt. Who are they?

So, Richard Gere, PJ Orourke, Tom Hanks and Sigmund Freud?

I am seeing Hitchens with bare feet (and he is dead, so yeah, I get the joke there) and Freud and... I don't know.

*edit- given the nature of Fried's recent post in another thread, I am going to go with

Dawkins on the left, Darwin on the right end, Hitchens with bare feet, and I don't know who the other guy is.

The four horsemen. Dawkins, Hitchens, Harris, and Dennett.

Where do I get that shirt?

I also want to know where to get the shirt.

However, the Overprotective Dad photo below might make you laugh so hard you don't remember what you were doing a moment ago. That's what happened to me.

Though I wonder why he left the redline uncovered.

Yeah, it was a cool place to grow up. Here's one for the airplane guys.

EDIT: A lot of us in the Mid-Atlantic then thought that the state lines are cut the wrong way. It should be one state reaching about 150mi. inland from roughly Baltimore to Wilmington.
