Guess what happens in 17,884,545.4 years

I know. It's scary. We're witnessing the end of The Daily Shirt. In less than 18 million years...that's it. It's done.

But all is not lost. In that count, not included are other faces that could realistically show up on Shirty - as we've seen, the currently dead, like Elvis, or fictional creations like Mickey Mouse or Stephen Harper are fair game. So, that buys us, what? What's the count on all those (for whom we have pictures) who have come before, as well as copywritten intellectual property? We'll just assume that it's about 100 or so... So that's another 3 and a bit months - plus 18 million years. It's like it's right around the corner.

Here's today's contribution...
