This piece and several others following it in the
gallery were all spawned out of a discussion of the concept of "grok" from
Robert Heinlein's book "Stranger in a Strange Land." I hang out with a
spiritual group that began as part of the Church of All Worlds which was
founded based on some of the principals evident in the group of the same
name in Heinlein's book. I mentioned that I had enjoyed the book so much
when I had finally read it that I intended to add some "grok" inspired
designs to the Cafe Press store. As often happens with my nest-mates the
conversation went into pun war mode and the laughter began to rise also
raising eyebrows in the coffee house where we meet. As with most things that
appear on the Cafe Press store, there are a couple of versions of this. I'm
only showing the original "light shirt" version of it here. You can see the
others by visiting the shop. The link is below .
