Yesterday on the Friday Funny – the new and improved 4 legged AGW table thread, there was quite a bit of interest in getting T-Shirts of Josh’s latest CAGW cartoon, the “No Shoogle 4 legged CAGW Table” (shoogly means wobbly in the UK). So I asked Josh, and he graciously agreed to license the design to WUWT so we could offer some T-Shirts, mugs, and other assorted brick-a-brack, just for fun.
I also added a second design (of my own) that some long time readers may remember:
I regret that CafePress would not let me put something on the back as well, they are apparently limited to the front side only, and side by side of this design is the best I could do:
It looks good on the mug:
You can get these on different colors of shirts, different styles, plus other items; like tote bags, water bottles, clocks, even a BBQing/cooking apron!
Josh gets a commission on each sale, so here’s your chance to annoy your friends and support his work. I can easily add other designs, so I can accept “some” requests.
As for the detractors of this blog who feel left out because there’s no fun merchandise for you, sorry, tough noogies.
Order your favorite fun stuff here: http://www.cafepress.com/WattsUpWithThat The shop allows you to choose what design you want on what item and what size in men or women’s sizes.
If you don’t want one for yourself, I hear Jim Hansen, Gavin, Joe Romm, and some other friends of ours are getting coal this year, so they might like one of these better.

UPDATE: Commenter James Barker complained of a lack of a hockey stick. So, here ya go!
Just FYI, if anyone wants to send one to Jim or Gavin at GISS, the address is here on the lower right side of the page.

Well, Josh’s own area does not have these, nor his one in Oz.
Also, when I go to create a custom shirt, I can put a different pic on the back.
Can I pay Josh for the use of these images in order to make my own shirts for family & friends?
How about Hansen in a DeLorean going back in time and pulling the temperatures from the past down / cooler?
Would it be posible to have a negative version in a black t-shirt? Something like this:

I checked the cafepress site and the designs can be done in bumper stickers, baseball caps, water bottles, bags, bibs, etc and can be in a variety of colours and some two coloured ones.
“……I hear Jim Hansen, Gavin, Joe Romm, and some other friends of ours are getting coal this year,…..
I was told as a child that if I wasn’t a good boy through the year all I’d get for Christmas was a lump of coal. Highly appropriate.
Umm, “shoogle” is most definitely not in general use throughout the UK. It will be comprehended in parts of Scotland, but not universally there either.

What, no hockey sticks??? WUWT?
REPLY: As we all know, they aren’t practical, so no need to offer them, but that reminds me…check back in a half hour or so – Anthony
OK, normal ones aren’t practical – but what about a really weak and flimsy lightweight hockey stick – particularly one made from Bristlecone pine, full of holes, broken, and held together with fudge? And don’t tell me it’d never sell – I hear a certain Michael Mann has done a roaring trade in this item and that every time a new version comes out hundreds of Real Climate readers buy it.
I think an opportunity’s been missed here – how about a “global warming jumper” (= sweater for you non-Aussies)?
Lucy Skywalker Car Bumper Stickers to spread the word.
Thanx Lucy, just what I wanted for myself and others!
“Shoogly” is Glasgow “patter” for loose or wobbly.
Quote: “yer jaiket’s on a shoogly nail”. The literal meaning is, of course, that the nail on which the person is accustomed to hang his jacket has become loose and the next time he or she tries to hang up said jacket it may, along with the nail, fall to the floor: Late again, eh? You better screw the nut, sonny boy, cause yer jaiket’s on a shoogly nail’. ”
We often use it to describe politicians whose days in office are clearly numbered and it is often used in that context elsewhere in Scotland. It was even used a while back in the Westminster parliament to describe the dying embers of Tony Blair’s premiership.
So, as you may guess, I’ll be buying one o’ thae mugs, so I will.
What I’d really like to see is a coffee mug with Basil Copeland’s wavelet analysis of sunspot numbers from http://wattsupwiththat.com/2008/09/22/new-cycle-24-sunspot/
And I’ve wanted it for more than two years.
Ric Werme,
If I’m not mistaken, Zazzle will produce your design at your request.

I looked into some of the one-off vendors with an idea of one for me and one for Anthony, but between time and some changes to the image, and what not it never happened.
Shoogly is not known in England. It is a Scottish word widely understood to mean shaky or wobbly or unstable. Like the Greeks, the Scots have a word for it. There is not an English equivalent for “scunner”. The use of shoogly suggests the origins of Josh.
What? No Screeching Mercury Monkeys?
Have to confirm what Wilson Flood says. Shoogly is Glasgow dialect and no one in England will ever have heard of the word!
We really do need these prints on thermal shirts, socks, ear muffs etc because we have globally warmed to minus twenty here, the coldest temps since records began (the records pre Hansen,Jones etc that is)
How about,
“Hey Al, How about my carbon footprint up your …?”
