Fresser, folks are thinking about you, but no one's come up with a graphic for you yet.  Someone did submit the following in your honor:

This is what they had to say about your suggestion:

Seeing that you're calling for someone to help Fresser

out with his idea, I figured I'd take a stab at it...

The idea is great, but drawing a pig driving a Caddy,

with a grill and all that -- it's a great idea, but

hard to draw, or hard to design if you will. So I

kinda simplified it.

Someone up to the challenge???

Now we're getting somewhere!

Thanks, o Anonymous Artist--that's a pretty good rendition of a toque-clad piggy. Now if we just drop Porky into a Cadillac or VW Beetle-esque convertible and put eGullet.org on the license plate, we've got something.

Has anyone tried searching Google for images of these cars? We could do a nice cut 'n paste job.

There are two sides to every story and one side to a Möbius band.

We have a winner, folks. After lots of thoughtful consideration, the Varmint Family has selected the following submission to be the "official" t-shirt of Varmint's 2nd Occasional Pig Pickin'.

And the winner is . . . . . our own Dave the Cook Scantland. Now because he is part of the eGullet Society management, Dave is not eligible for prizes. Therefore, our second place contestant will take home the booty, including 2 free admissions to the Pig Pickin' and 2 t-shirts (or 2 t-shirts and a 6-pack of Blenheim's Ginger Ale if he can't make it). The recipient of these fine parting gifts go to Tim Oliver ("toliver"). Tim, let us know your gift preferences.

Here are pictures of Tim's entry.

We'll be getting a post up shortly about how you can order your own eGullet Society Varmint's Pig Pickin' T-shirt. Thanks everyone for your great entries. This was a lot of fun. And Fresser, maybe it's time for you to start learning some computer graphics!!!

Thanks, y'all!

Pig Pickin' merchandise now available here. This will not be available after the big event. All profits will benefit the eGullet Society.

That shirt design is, frankly, awesome. No possible way I'll be able to make it to the pickin itself, but I'm awfully tempted to buy the shirt, just the same...
