New T-Shirt Line Announced: “Republic of Chicagoland”

“republic of chicagoland” Tees! Available in White, Dark Blue or Black.
VelocityMedia (my freelance effort) announces the launch of a new t-shirt line with the very first in the line: “republic of chicagoland” available now for purchase from RedBubble.
The inspiration for this t-shirt line comes from the city itself! We all know Chicago, and indeed Chicagoland, is different than most U.S. cities. We have our own way of doing things, our own slang, our own unique food, and our pragmatic approach to life. Sometimes it’s almost like being in a different country. So what if we were our own country? We’d definitely be the Republic of Chicagoland!
These handsome and comfortable tees are printed on American Apparel shirts, and are available in White, Dark Blue and Black for just $24.99. They’re also available as V-Neck Tees, Long-sleeve Tees, and Hoodies.
Now is your chance! Be the first cool kid on the block and get yours today!
Illinois Unemployment Rate above national rate
Looks like the old adage of “It’ll get worse before it gets better” is true. But I wonder why the unemployment rate is so much higher in Illinois as compared to the national unemployment rate.

Happy Independence Day! 2 More iPhone wallpaper backgrounds
Posted by Brian Mayzure in Chicago, Tech Stuff on July 4th, 2009
To celebrate Independence Day (the proper name of ‘the 4th of July’ in case you’ve forgotten), I’ve got two more new iPhone wallpaper backgrounds for you. The first is the U.S. flag, in all its stars-and-stripes glory. The other, is the City of Chicago flag (because, after all, I am a Chicagoan, and we do have an awesome flag). You can download both of them for free and sync them with your iPhone. Enjoy!!
If you need directions on how to do that, see my previous post here.
