Okay DUers who sell thru CafeShops.com--we need THIS SHIRT!

In big, bold letters: "I am part of the Boxer Rebellion!"

And underneath, in smaller type, the quote from Jefferson about a little rebellion being good for the republic.

Anybody wanna do this? I'd line up to buy a few!

2. oooh, buzzkill. I'm a firm believer in reappropriating language, however.

And doing so is not without precedent. It's one of the great things about the English language.
