Shirt message gets a warm reception
By MARV CERMAK
First published in print: Tuesday, November 25, 2008
A few weeks ago here there was mention of posters with the message, "You can go to hell — I'm going to Schenectady" being sold at Proctors' gift shops. Some college students asked why the shops didn't stock T-shirts bearing the slogan.
Manager Bob Warlock took the hint, purchasing 144 colorful long and short sleeve shirts. A dozen were sold before the new inventory was totally displayed.
"Because of downtown improvements Schenectady is being equated with going to heaven," is Warlock's explanation of the slogan. Myself, I'm at a loss to decipher the message..........................

That's actually very very funny.....has anyone ever received a call from telemarketers.....they cant pronounce Schenectady.....I think we should
send a few gross to India to the 'phone people' at GEcard services, Visa card services etc.............even Time Warner phone helpers.......
Pronounce this with our American money....... |

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS

Gee, I thought 'hell' and 'schenectady' were one in the same.  |
