There are probably a slew of you... how big is a "slew"
anyway?...well if that's a lot of "you," then that's too big.
Anyway, likely more than a gaggle of you have seen some of
these before. They are the brain-child of a former slave to the
grind who hated these damn things. Yep, that would be me. I
worked in corporate America long enough to despise these
beautiful photos and sayings that were supposed to make us
motivated to perform the mundane, sell crap that didn't do
anything but line shareholders' pockets, and, inspire us as our
wages were frozen or our friend's were laid-off. If they had
warded off bad management, they'd have been OK. Yeah, I'm
slightly jaded.

Though I've had a number of unsolicited requests over the
years to sell them, they are not my photos, nor, out of respect
for the Mad Rollin' Dolls, do I consider them my property. If you
would buy these post-card sized, which I think actually fit into
the original Successories small frames, go ahead and send me
an e-mail. If I get enough requests, I'll see if MRD wants to sell
them again. If you would like to use the sayings with photos
from your own league...contact me. That's a different
discussion.

About the only times I leave the confines of Flyin' Squirrel
International Headquarters is when I bag up some shwag (yes,
swag needs an "h." Rolls off the tongue so much better) and
head to a bout. So far, the rodent and I have gotten to about
half of our sponsors, with more right around the corner.

I think my favorite is the Attitude Sucksessory. This is one of my
favorite Tim Hughes photos ever. My understanding is she just
walked up unexpectedly and put the fists together, creating that
"moment" and one of the best derby photos of all time.
