Top 10 Reasons (Plus 1)!
by Mr. Glass on Nov.23, 2009, under About the Book
I figure since the holiday season is fast approaching I might as well help you guys out a bit. Picking the perfect gift can be a challenging task. There are so many options out there, and sometimes they can be ridiculously expensive. Don’t buy your loved ones a video game that they’ll be bored with in thirty minutes; or a pair of shoes that will be out of style in three months. Instead this holiday season get them something special. Buy them an autographed copy of my book, Mr. Glass’s Words of Wisdom. It’s sure to make a great gift for anyone this holiday season! So without further adieu here are my top 10 reasons (plus 1) why you should give my book as a gift this year!
1. My Book doesn’t require batteries. Unlike those fancy little MP3 players.
2. No assembly necessary. Unless of course your building a house of books!
3. It doesn’t contain trans-fats. Unlike those gross McDoubles!
4. It’s lead-free. Can’t touch that can you Fischer Price?
5. It won’t shatter if you drop it. Even though it’s written by Mr. Glass!
6. It’s sized to fit everyone. No worrying about what size pants your friend wears!
7. Books rarely go out of style. Can you say the same thing about Ugg boots?
8. There are no small parts that could get caught in your throat. Not touching this one!
9. It won’t poke your eyes out. Try getting that guarantee from a BB gun!
10. It’s only $8 (plus tax). A lot cheaper than any LCD T.V.!
Finally the most important reason why you should buy my book this holiday season is (drum role please….):
11. It might possibly be the funniest Self-Help book you will ever come across!
The Walking Art Gallery: How one Chicago t-shirt comapny is changing the way we look at art

Anyone who knows me knows that I love art, especially graffiti and paintings! Lately I have become hooked, almost addicted some could say, to this awesome company out of Chicago. I’m talking about Threadless.com, this super cool community based indie T-Shirt company that is helping spread artists work one shirt at a time! Anyone who appreciates art will love these shirts, because they aren’t just fads of fashion; they are beautiful pieces of artwork. Threadless operates by having artists submit designs then allowing the community (users, customers, etc.) to vote on them. Designs that win are printed into shirts, earning the designer up to $20,000. If you think about it though their designs are actually being made into, a walking canvas that helps spread that artist’s work around the globe. Threadless is changing the way we look at art.
Threadless is not just a t-shirt company, they are new kind of art gallery supplying artists with a unique new outlet for displaying their work. On peoples shirts. After all, the company really is all about the art! The vast array of shirts they offer is amazing, each one unique, showing the different styles of each individual artist. For an artist, nothing is cooler than seeing people enjoy your work. Watching people walk around town while wearing your painting or drawing would be amazing. For up and coming artists, there might not be a better way of getting your work out there. Best part is anyone can submit designs. All you need to do is download their submission kit and follow the instructions included. (continue reading…)
