On my website I had about seven offensive t-shirt thumbnails i wanted to hide in a divider. So I ended up making this bit of code.
You can use this to show and hide anything on the page. The default for this code is that it is first hidden, then you open it. By cliking on a hyperlink.
This is the code for showing and hiding a Divider:
–
<script type=”text/javascript”>
<!–
function toggle_visibility(id) {
var e = document.getElementById(id);
if(e.style.display == ‘block’)
e.style.display = ‘none’;
else
e.style.display = ‘block’;
}
//–>
</script>
<a onclick=”toggle_visibility(‘foo’);”> <p align=”left” style=”font-size:19px”><strong><br />
<br />

This is a recent shirt I was able to pick up from a local designer. It is only about six months old for us at this point, and already is becoming a fairly hot seller for our website.
I think It is funny, so I thought I would share it with you.
The shirt itself has no name that I am aware of but I call it the Chicken and Cow Egg T-Shirt
Have a look.
Funny Chicken and Cow Egg Shirt - Did they do it ? - Click Image $17.99
For most of the last two years I have notice my beautiful cow Mabel, and favorite chicken Betsy had been spending a lot of time together.
Although I thought it was a bit strange, I was thankful it was not the weirdo creep Gonzo that used to hang on the chicken coup doors trying to chat up the ladies.
Last week I went out for a walk around the farm, and this is the site I ran into.
This whole thing is very confusing to me, I don’t see how a cow and chicken could make such an egg, and really I think poor Betsy and Mabel are even more confused than I am.
I wonder if I feed the creature that hatches from it chocolate, will it lay milk chocolate eggs?
Almost two decades ago as I sat with a good friend of mine looking towards a particularly beautiful jungle covered volcano near a white sandy beach, he asked me if I had ever heard the theory of a living Earth. I replied “No, what is it?” so over the next few minutes he outlined it to me. Although I doubt the theory is true, there are aspects of it that have been bouncing around in my head for many years now, so I thought I should share it here with you.
When I think about earth in my head, I usually think of images of green pastures, flowers, trees, blue skies with fluffy white clouds, flying birds and a sun. These images are probably influenced by many artistic and photographic images I have seen that depict this, as well the environment I grew up in in Canada that occasionally would look almost exactly like this. Depending on what you are used to, you may think of other things, I imagine a child that grows up in a city, does not travel out of it, and does not watch much TV or take art classes may imagine things very differently.
But this is not an image of a pasture, or jungle, or city, but an entirely different way to think about our magnetically shielded planet spinning through the galaxy with it’s shifting plates, moving oceans, and erupting volcanoes.
Infested Gaia Theory:
Earth is not a simple rock, but is actually a very large living organism, and like all living organisms it experiences phases of heath, and sickness. Grass, and trees are similar to our hairs, volcanoes are similar to blemishes, and just like any other living organism, it does gradually shift and change appearance over the years, but since it is such a long living and huge organism, it shifts very slowly as it feels no great rush to move any faster. This is hardly detectable by us shorter lived animals that inhabit her.
Like all living organisms it is covered in other creatures, most of them are parasites, by definition a parasite is a species who benefits at the expense of its host. Obviously since we use materials from earth to build everything we use, from computers to cities, space ships and nuclear bombs, we easily fit the definition of a parasite.
Mother Earth can heal herself quite quickly against small disturbances, but humans in particular are a very high breeding, and destructive parasite, who have become experts at cutting down forests, destroying foliage, as well as burrowing and blasting right into the earth. Where there was once beautiful green wild ares of life, we create massive, sterile “Dead Spaces”, mostly only inhabited by us, and then work very hard to maintain it’s sterility as we expand.
This is our nature, being the parasites that we are.
What do you do if you drag some soil into the house? You take it back out.
If the road or sidewalk cracks and some grass comes up, we usually kill the grass, and pave it back over.
I mean who doesn’t enjoy sitting around a fire at night and throwing bits of trees into it?
Like all living organisms, mother earth does have an immune system, and one day the immune system might kick into high gear and it could kill off most of us parasites through rains, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis, hopefully I won’t be around to see it.

Have a listen to Gerorge Carlin’s Thoughts on Our Planet:
This is a very underrated band as far as I’m concerned. I love the lyrics. This one is called String of Pearls off the Black Gold Album.
String of Pearls
She swings the string of pearls on the corner
The street lights reflect the light in the water
The string it snaps and the pearls go sailing
And they splash and bounce and roll ‘cross the wet street
As she bends to chase the pearls a car swings ’round the corner
She darts from the eyes of the panic-struck driver
Who’s racing to the delivery room
‘Cause in the back seat his wife is busting out of her womb
And the sack breaks and out come the Siamese Twins
Who grow up to become the first President
With two heads
Are better than one
He puts his heads in his hands, says I got to put my heads together
I can become the best President ever
And not just President
Fend for yourself
Signs his name, takes the blame for all of the names with no shame
In their beliefs
They adjourn and they leave, and in walks a man
With a broom and a knife and blood on his hands
And he sweeps everything under the rug
And goes home to his kids and gives them a hug
But his wife was not there, she had just left a letter
That said “you’d be much better off without me”
Now his wife took the train to her ex-lover’s funeral
Who died in the bathroom, hit his head on a urinal
When they got together, the knowledge was carnal
And the widow was at the funeral, and they had quite a catfight
And they fell into the hole where the casket was resting
And the preacher just left in the middle of the service
‘Cause death was one thing, but women made him nervous
And he ran to his car and he drove ’round the corner
Then something in the street caught the light in his eye
He pulled over, reached down, and picked up a pearl from the gutter
And he didn’t know what to think
And he brought it home and washed it in the sink
And he gave the pearl to Sister Mary Teresa
Who could not accept it so she gave it to Lisa,
A young prostitute who was missing a pearl
On the necklace that broke late last night

My Grandpa was a great man, he didn’t talk very much , but when he did he made sense, one time he said to me:
“Why do you want to wear a companies logo on your chest and walk around advertising that company. If a company wanted me to wear their name I would want them to pay me for it”
That was an interesting question. Grandpa always had interesting questions, and stories. I think he only talked about once a week or so, and the stories and questions he would come up with were obviously well thought out.
So why do people flock to the store and pick up things with Nike on them, or Adidas? I mean they make great shoes, but why do these people decide to plaster themselves in logos? What does a Nike swoosh on a hat have anything to do with buying a decent sports shoe?
Do you become a member of the tribe of Nike ? Are you a special member in the club of Adidas ?
What exactly does it mean to be a member of a shoe company club?
Do the Adidas guys get invited to all the good soccer (football) games or something?
What does a Nike kind of guy do exactly? Does he think about jumping up and down like Michael Jorden, and then tell himself “Just Do It! ” then actually jumps up and down? Does he run a lot?
What about the American Eagle guy? Will he one day gain the knowledge of flight after so many years of draping eagles over his body?
Will the Abercrombie and Finch guy one day be aloud on the official A & F sailboat where he will take the helm as captain after promoting the brand on his chest for so many years?
Do Polo guys play polo?
The Red bull tribe i hear likes to jump off bridges and stuff.
Apparently from what I have read, men especialy purchase things with labels on them, for two reasons.
1) Men are afraid of fashion, and know that buying a logo item will at least let him be accepted by people “in the club”.
2) Men like to belong to some sort of tribe or group, and logos make them feel this way.
Anyhow, I am a member of the No Logo club myself. I am not willing to advertise for companies, and the worst thing is they charge you a premium price to do it.
Join the No Logo club, we save money by not advertising, and live a better life with what we have saved. We also usualy look better.
Lets face it guys, what we really want is women, and they don’t usualy buy logos, and likely don’t appreciate the 60% premium you pay to wear them on your back.
