how bout "I answer the thrice and done. Bite. Me."

"So that would make me right, and YOU_____"

and if you're going to do SPLATTERCON!!! shirts we need one with Harry's name tag "an innovcent victim" and one with Rawlins "an authority figure"

and this isn't a qoute but what about "I got bitten at Biancas" ?

Fred, check with Jim's agent if you haven't already...I tried to do this back when we were a mailing list, and she asked me not to, due to legal fuzziness when it came to the TV show. (even for just the list, at cost)

Given your permissions with the game, and the show almost wrapping up the season, I sincerely hope you can do it. ;)

I finally got my McAnally's shirt and it came out awesome! It is a black t with McAnallys Pub and a beer stein with foam and underneath it says "Where a wizard comes to rest a spell". The writing is in silver with the stein in silver with cream and bronze foam. Very cool! I can't wait to wear it at RT.  ;D

I personally think it would be kind of cool to have recreations of the shirts Harry wears in the books. Although I also like a lot of the ideas being thrown around here.

I'm sticking to my vote for McAnally's related.

What about a t-shirt of the label for McAnally's Beer?

"Sarcasm- Just one more service Bob offers"

Or the grand old

"I don't believe in faeries!"
 
Or

"Holy vigilanties, Batman"

Or

"Stupid Latin correspondence course"

Or

"Easter has been cancelled.  They found the body"

Or...

*gets dragged off so others can have a turn*

Oh goodie.  Another excuse to reread the Dresdens in a search for shirts.

I personally like the second- and third-to-last the most. Of course, I'm a religious studies major, and I failed latin last year, so go figure.

Many of the Tshirts described in the books are real.

I could have sworn that in Storm Front, Harry mentions that McAnally's brews his own beer.

I also remember a scene in one of the books where everyone raves about the lemonade there because of the lemon ice cubes....

Yes, he does. Remember Thomas tells Harry that Mac would kill him if he knew he was chilling it.

It occurs to me that some of the posts in the Spoiler Haiku list might work:
http://www.jim-butcher.com/bb/index.php/topic,409.0.html

Highlights include:

Butters is assured
that Polka will never die.
Now they can kick ass!
(Priscillie http://www.jim-butcher.com/bb/index.php?action=profile;u=25)

Smoke drifting slowly
Building engulfed in red flames
Harry, how could you?
(Deb http://www.jim-butcher.com/bb/index.php?action=profile;u=36)

The building's on fire,
And no, it is not my fault!
Architecture sucks.
(Me!)

There are more good ones (especially mine  ;D).

Read my signature.... I'm alread in the process of making one myself for the Seattle Signing.

The front would have the Dresden Files tv show logo and the back would have the quote.

I put my vote in for the SplatterCon!!! shirt. Because!

I like the idea about the Blue Beetle.
I'm thinking a nice pic of the car and arrow pointing from the different parts to a description what happened to it. I can't really explain but I'm thinking like 'anatomy of the Blue Beetle'.

And underneath something like "Phoenix Impression".

Does it have to be a quote?  Or would you be open to suggestions such as:

(front) The first rule of fairy maid service is you do not talk about fairy maid service.

(back) The Dresden Files.  Good clean fun.

Chalk up another vote for this one!

Oh, and SplatterCon!!!, of course. ;D
