Dorkiphus Explained
 
BTW

Dorkiphus is a play on the old "greek" (Charlie has some heritage here)
myth of Sisyphus.

Sisyphus was condemned to an eternity of rolling a boulder up a hill. Once the boulder got to the top it rolled back down and he had to start all over again.

There is also a star of dorkiphus. My fiancee got the name star registered this valentines day.

So following that logic it is possible that there may be a planet of dorkiphi out there somewhere. Perhaps they chant my name on friday nights over guiness. Anything is possible.

I don't mind if you use the name on a shirt. I dont mind if you don't use the name either :)

Have fun in Hershey!

Jim, Would you rather have "Sisyphus" on your chest?

:lol:

Thanks for the explainer, Geof.

Geoff - nice to know the origin of the URL - thanks.

Fellas - maybe we can put our collective heads together and come up with a nice shirt slogan / design that can be worn for all occasions: Fun Runs, DE's, swap meets, etc...

How about a greek guy (in full robe, etc) being pushed by a 911 up a hill with a caption, "I hope I don't have to push this thing the rest of my life" or something to that effect.

The address of the site could then be in small letters beneath the caption.


Well no one else has come up with anything better

Marc,

I don't know if you can get Charlie to hold still log enough to snap the picture, but I like the idea. :o

Mark, I like that idea......

We can move the 911 into the driveway and take some pictures of me pushing the engineless car around? Quite fitting if you ask me. I'm likely to jump in while its moving and make 'vroom, vroom' noises though :wink:

Mark,
I also like that idea..
