What do those tukes louke like (other than black)? Anyone got a photo? I probably would've bought one, had I known they were available.

yeah here's what i remember
a black shirt with "so you flipped a button in the collection plate and threw up in church" design
a black shirt with Red Roses for Me
a black shirt with Rum Sodomy and the Lash
a black shirt with The Pogues, a design that looked like a knight, and some text I couldn't see
a green shirt with The Pogues and boxing design on front (would be great for St. Paddy's Day bar crawl)
a black sweatshirt with The Pogues
a green Pogues scarf
a wristband
a hat
a sticker and button pack
a bottle opener (I think it had Rum Sodomy and the Lash on it)
a pint glass
a limited edition poster with all the USA tour dates on it


I bought The poster for my house (I'll now pay $300 to have it framed by the people who do framing and restoration for the National Gallery of Art), the scarf for me, and a medium size shirt got my good friend Fintan. On the front it has a man standing and holding a glass of red wine. There is a skeleton on his shoulders, leaning forward and talking to the man's head. Next to them a block that reads "I come old friend from hell tonight across the totting sea. Nor the nails of the cross, nor the blood of Christ, can bring you help this eve. The dead have come to claim a debt from thee. They stand outside your door, four score and three." It also says The Pogues on the front. On the back it has the US dates in a block. As I look at it, it looks like medieval woodblock print style. I thought it was the best.

"Toque." I learned that word from the McKenzie Brothers of SCTV fame.

I think I may need one of these toques in NYC. Got a haircut yesterday only to discover a quarter-sized bald spot on the back of my head.
Barber said it is probably alopecia.
Still trying to decide what to do with it.....draw shamrock in it, a :) face, or write "MacRua" there.

That was answered (with a 'yes' from EricV) a few messages back. There are extra-large shirts available in some, though not all styles. I don't know that I can break down which shirts are/aren't available in each size. If you want an extra-large shirt, there are certainly some available -- at least there were as of last night.

Speaking of this shirt, I always wondered what "Four score and three" meant?

Someone know?

Thanks!

"Score" is an old word for the number twenty, so it could mean "eighty-three".
