Sgt. Bosco "B.A." Baracus

Who doesn't love Mr. T? We do! While in NY, Lucas was blessed with a super-fabulous t-shirt with the great man saying, classically, "I pity the fool who don't read the Scripturist!" Our friends Mark and Liz who bought the shirt figured that it was supposed to say scriptures instead of scripturist, like some t-shirts seen in Chinatown might read Pespi instead of Pepsi. The woman who was selling the t-shirt said that was what she figured too. As it turns out, however, there is a blog called, believe it or not, the Scripturist, and the picture originated on their website.

Marc e-mailed them to ask about the t-shirts. Turns out, they had no idea, but wanted a picture of Lucas to share with their readers, so he's now (at least for a short while) their poster boy.

I don't know if we endorse everything the Scripturist has to say (we haven't read it all), but for now, we think they're great and Lucas will certainly keep wearing the shirt as long as it fits him and we'll be passing it down to his future siblings.

*Mark and Liz are the first two seen in the friends pictures from Christmas and Lucas can be seen in the t-shirt under the family pictures and, of course, on the Scripturist website.
