The Corduroy Appreciation Club
We get lots of product suggestions and submissions here at Awesome--quite a few from jewelry and t-shirt-makers, but every once in awhile there's an email or a product or an idea that simply stands out from the crowd. There was that hand soap. And the ear earring. And then there's the email from the founder of The Corduroy Appreciation Club. He writes:
"In a nutshell, the Corduroy Appreciation Club is a
social club, in the tradition of organizations like The Elks Club or secret societies like The Masons. We only meet on dates which resemble
Corduroy. The date which most closely resembles Corduroy is November
11th, or 11|11."
What they do at their meetings is anyone's guess. Roll around on Corduroy rugs? Read their corduroy sonnets and haikus aloud to each other? Offer support to one another through what could be a debilitating addiction? I don't know! But they sell some cool shirts and ties, and that's good enough for me. (Also, you get a free membership card with your purchase, because "you deserve it.")
GAH! Curse you!!!! I wanted to write about this site! Seriously awesome.
