Here are the siteXpansion, Inc. t-shirts, for now:
http://www.cafepress.com
/SXP
There will be new ones that say, "One Admin to Rule
Them All" soon. And
then, eventually, there will be higher quality items from
http://www.uniformsby
design.com, who does very high quality work at amazing
prices.
Yes, we expect a very large fan club. Note - the items in
this store have no
markup.
