http://www.teefury.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - a site that sells a different art/pop culture/parody t-shirt every 24 hours and for 24 hours only, has a Dune shirt today.
I've bought a fair few shirts from this site in the past, the quality is good (proper screen print jobs) and I've never had any problems with the shipping from the US.
Befriend the Fremen (that is, get lost in the desert, stumble on a band of desert warriors, kill one of them in single combat, get a concubine, have a near death experience that leaves you thinking you can see the future and get hellbent on holy war... my idea of a vacation)
Great find. I just bought one. I dig the past tshirts they show on the site to. Will buy more from them I'm sure.
The name Atreides was also consciously chosen. It is the family name of Agamemnon. Says Herbert, "I wanted a sense of monumental aristocracy, but with tragedy hanging over them--and in our culture, Agamemnon personifies that." Frank Herbert by Tim O'Reilly http://tim.oreilly.com/herbert/
Ghanima said. "We Atreides go back to Agamemnon..."
Distracted, Irulan asked: "Who's Agamemnon?" Children of Dune by Frank Herbert

I'm still very proud of The Quarry but … let's face it; in the end the real best way to sign off would have been with a great big rollicking Culture novel.
