But I&#8217;m not going to get political here and my feelings about teachers&#8217; unions is not why I&#8217;m getting rid of this shirt.It&#8217;s hideous.

Look at it! I&#8217;ve created a few t-shirts in my day and I recognize 5 minutes of effort when I see it! I&#8217;m not sure Goodwill is going to want this shirt &#8211; but I&#8217;m giving it to them anyway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past week at school was &#8220;spirit week&#8221;.
