Good Girl Mary Sue demands you Feel Em Up!


I honestly must admit that at first glance the two breasts were a bit shocking, as was the motto "Feel Them Up", but after a moments reflection I decided this was my all time favorite event logo.

When visiting my favorite cousin on my father's side in Chicago, Mary Sue Piekarski mentioned to me that she was breaking down and doing the breast cancer walk - an event she had aspired to participate in for years.

I mentioned that if such an auspicious event demanded a t-shirt, I would be proud to design it for her. Unfortunately, that hasn't transpired do to time constraints. Mary Sue was kind enough to e-mail me her back-of-a-napkin design to keep me in the loop.

You have to know Mary Sue to really appreciate this situation. Mary Sue, married at the Chevy Chase Country Club in Barrington, Illinois to a member of the Bears staff. She once told me that I should adopt "You're Unbelievable" as my theme song as I was so outrageous. Conservative Chicago, old school, beer and brats kinda girl.

She is raising money like a crazy woman for a charity she isn't personally involved in. You just gotta love her. I wish I could vote her in as Miss America, because she is the heart and soul of what the Midwest is about.
