"Electric Sitar" usually name those DanElectro guitars with that special mechanical extra, which make them sound like sitars.

Joe, I just re-sponsored Diane Kamikaze.

I have just one request for prizes - can you offer a 2XL or 3XL ladies tee in the future? I'm not small, but I can't wear men's shirts anymore either - too up and down and tight in the middle. I will pledge more in the future if I have to get that.

Joe McG:

@Cecile: Cool! Diane will be pleased, I know. As for the shirts, we just don't have enough demand for the larger women's sizes, so it's not really cost-efficient to get 'em. I wish we could, but it gets so expensive to get so many sizes!

I think there are more larger ladies out there that don't select tee shirts because their sizes aren't there, or they just sigh and get a man's tee shirt. Or maybe give us an option to order a CustomInk or other online print shirt individually and have some of the money go to you.
