Day 191



Thanks to Custom Ink, I am now more or less capable of securing anyone a pelican.
A little while back, Virginia based print works Custom Ink generously donated a hefty package of random T-shirts to my THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE challenge. Among the curious bundle was this garment for the Miami based Pelican Harbor Seabird Station and its Intern division. Enthusiasts for helping wildlife met with turmoil are able to dedicate their time at Pelican Harbor via the Intern scheme, which among the obvious rewarding benefits, gains them a blue T-shirt bearing the company logo on the front and back.

Of course, what Custom Ink hadn't banked on was the misappropriate use of such a T-shirt by a cocky young designer. Should I feel so inclined, this tee could gain me entry into the pelican holding zone, allowing me to 'borrow' a few with the intent of forming the world's first all-pelican stage show.
The only hardship on my part would be flying over to Miami and finding the station before midnight, as that's when I'd need to change into tomorrow's T-shirt and give myself away for the imposter that I'd be. It would be kind of like the Cinderella story but with more pelican smuggling.

I should probably clarify that I have no actual intention of stealing pelicans.
I wouldn't have a clue how to book a pelican a plane ticket.

THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE Project

Hi, I’m Andi Best and I’m a regular guy, rising to an irregular challenge.

People tell me I have a lot of T-shirts. These people are not wrong, it’s true, I do.

But one person went as far as to tell me I have so many T-shirts, I could probably wear a different one every day. This is obviously not true, but it got me thinking - what if I could wear a different T-shirt every day? What if I never wore the same T-shirt twice for an entire year?

Challenge accepted

I have created project THREEHUNDREDANDSIXTEEFIVE which, beginning January 1st 2013, will track my pro gress sourcing and wearing a different T-shirt every day for the next 365 days – and I’m going to need your help to do it…
