Background:
Since TeeWitty's marketing budget is smaller than a day's earnings working at a sweatshop, spreading the word about TeeWitty has proven difficult.

Observation:
When a famous person is seen wearing a funny t-shirt, the t-shirt may become famous and spark a craze. Case in point: Napolean Dynamite's "Vote for Pedro" shirt (see exhibit A).

Question:
What would famous people do if I send them the TeeWitty shirt that they helped inspire? Would they wear them in private? Would they wear them in public? Would they sue me?

Hypothesis:
If one of the famous people is seen wearing my shirt in public, then TeeWitty will become famous, sell millions of shirts, and fund my early retirement from teaching.

Experiment:
Step 1: I sent the "Handipacked" Green Bay Packers shirt to Lovie Smith (see exhibit B).
Step 2: I sent the "Schwarzenegger '08" presidential campaign shirt to Governor Schwarzenegger (see exhibit C).
Step 3: I sent the "What Would Danica Do?" shirt to Danica Patrick.
Step 4: I sent the "Fo' Drizzle" shirt to Snoop Dogg.
Step 5: I sat back on my couch, watched my entire John Hughes video library, and waited for my fame and fortune to arrive (see exhibit D).

Data:
After two normal months, I received a letter on official letterhead from the desk of Governor Arnold Schwarenegger (see exhibit E). Nine more normal months have passed since that exciting day.

Analysis:
I sent out four shirts and received a thank you letter in return. Shirt sales remain normal (i.e., no spike in sales has occurred yet).

Conclusion:
The experiment is inconclusive. (What can I say? I'm an optimist.)
