Paco for President....
....bumpersticker. Not sure if you folks know of Cafe Press but it is a place to get mugs, t-shirts, etc. with pictures/drawings/phrases/you-name-it for a plethora of areas (e.g., flamenco, NCIS, etc. etc.). Here is the Paco for President bumpersticker
gee mr. vega, i did not realize that offering something many may not know about was the equivalent of not getting out. then again, spending hours hovering over books about luthiers may be indicative of not getting out enough.

RE: Paco for President.... (in reply to Doitsujin)
doit--i was at the cafepress website looking to buy a big bang theory mug for a friend of mine who loves the show--and she is not a geek. anyway, i remembered cafepress has a ton of stuff that is flamenco oriented--canvas bags with i love flamenco, t-shirts, etc. i found the paco sticker as well as some conde guitar products (shirts, mug). they have a cool wall clock with 3, 6,8, 10 and 12 highlighted--they call it the compas clock.
think about the reaction people will have to the bumpersticker who do not know flamenco--and those who do know flamenco.
