Here is something fun we can help Brian do. OCF needs to replace the slogan "MAKE ORAL CANCER HISTORY". Im certain we have some creative members who can come up with another slogan that is equally as catchy. Please post your ideas on this thread.

"Changing the Face of Oral Cancer"(has that one been done?!)
"Changing the Face of Oral Cancer through Information, Activism and Support"
"Providing the Latest Information and a Voice to Oral Cancer Patients, Survivors, and Caregivers"
"Dedicated to Being the Eyes, Ears, and Voice of Oral Cancer Patients and Survivors."
"Information. Activism. Support."
I'll keep thinking...

Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 571 | BTW...Would it be acceptable to take orders for shirts from my FB friends? I'd like to buy some for my family. But, so many people became aware of oral cancer through my posts about J. Some of them might want to help by buying a t-shirt.
Let me apologize in advance in case these are just too silly...

"Chew Out Oral Cancer"
"Make Oral Cancer Eat It"
"Give Oral Cancer the Brush Off"

Can they be re-screened to attribute the slogan to MD Anderson...Would it be legally acceptable? Would it be worth the expense? Then, they wouldn't have to be discounted/destroyed/given away. I've screen printed shirts before. If we get a screen made, some ink and some volunteers together...it would be very inexpensive and quick to do.
I'd think that MD Anderson would love the free publicity.

If I was going to add another screen to the existing shirts, it would likely say something in a wording that I couldn't post here about the mothers of the SOB's that work in their legal department that brought all this up after a decade of mutual cooperation. Places where the sun doesn't shine might be mentioned as well�.
Brian, stage 4 oral cancer survivor. OCF Founder and Director. The first responsibility of a leader is to define reality. The last is to say thank you. In between, the leader is a servant.
