Sporkle is brown? I would've thought it'd be more of a green colour.

Damn.

It.

I had no interest in owning a Sporkle t-shirt.

But that piggy is cute.

money? I don't need my money. It must all belong to Jon.

That's utterly brilliant. I wasn't expecting it, really, and yet it draws me in, like a firefly to a blow torch.

Pork is light colored, and apple cider is brownish. So brownish makes sense to me.

I think the bottle is brown so as light won't affect the taste of the Sporkle. I didn't realise Sporkle was carbonated either. Nice touch.

In Response to Rich (#9703):

I don't think the makers of Sporkle are concerned about anything affecting the taste.

And you can't see bubbles through the sides of brown glass bottles.

Ooops.

Too pedantic.

Sorry.

Possibly, but I didn't think that Jon would reveal the design until after the SPEYs arrived (at least some of them).

I think that a different tee-shirt will be in the SPEYs, if only for the reason that I CAN'T WAIT THAT LONG!!!!

I am still weighing the pros and cons of upgrading to Super-Premium. While I don't really have the money to spend, I still am tempted by such a thing. Does anyone wish to sway my dicision one way or the other, with a well-thought, compelling arguement that only a weasel could ignore?

The Super Premium is only $60 a year or $5 a month (less than $0.17 a day!). You get a box full of awesome Goat related stuff. Plus you get that warm fuzzy feeling you're helping Goats to continue.
So skip the latte twice a month, have one less beer at the pub once and a while, or sell some blood, anything to get the cash.

I was sold up until that Sally Struthers part. ;)

Your min/max arguement tempts me and makes me salivate.
