At first this may seem like an oxymoron, but it is completely possible…Specifically if your dentist is Dr. Kathy Duncan Friedman, DDS. I was referred to her about a year ago by my friend Erin, a.k.a “Chicky”. I had spent a few years jumping from one dentist to another and at times, just neglecting my dental care all together. Then, I went to see Dr. Duncan. My teeth and life just haven’t been the same since. 🙂 After the DDS, she should also have BDE, for Best Dentist Ever. If you are in need of great dental care by an awesome dentist check out her site. http://smilepittsburgh.googlepages.com

TNY Presents…Love Bites
The New Yinzer is a magazine. http://www.newyinzer.com.
I am happy to write about this event. A few years ago, before IheartPGH, possibly before blogs exisited, the New Yinzer published a book called Pittsburgh Love Stories. I had to hunt for that book all over the city, it was one of the few books I really wanted to read. I like reading about how others see Pittsburgh, I have read and reread Annie Dillard’s An American Childhood many times. So after hunting over this city, I found that book. So I am equally excited that The New Yinzer folks have an even about love, not necessarily love for Pittbsurgh, but we can just focus on how much we love Pittsburgh all the time. And yes, you can still order a copy of the book from the New Yinzer website.

Looking for some Pittsburgh wisdom
I am looking for some ideas of wise Pittbsurgh sayings for t-shirts and other gift items. At Spreadshirt we are setting up a shop, Washable Wisdom, that sells t-shirts, hats, aprons and other items with wise sayings. Last week I was, once again, talking about how great Pittsburgh is, so we want to add a section to the shop for local wisdom. Of course, since Spreadshirt is in Pittsburgh, we will start with Pittsburgh. Does anyone know of any wise sayings that refer to Pittsburgh? Or any quotes of wisdom from famous Pittsburghers? Please share.
The PG is looking for your t-shirt stories
I saw this little post on the website for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette today. I thought this might be of interest to some of our blog readers. I am not sure if they are only looking for Pittsburgh stories or for stories from all over. I think I might submit my story about myIheartPGH t-shirt. I am looking forward to reading this article when it comes out.
Seeking Your Help: Your favorite T-shirt
Wednesday, January 17, 2007
Every favorite T-shirt usually comes a with good story on why it’s so special to you. Maybe you were wearing it when you met your future spouse. Or you got it at the best concert you ever attended. Or it’s from a special reunion. No matter how old or how tattered, you’ll never give it away. We’d like to hear your stories about your favorite T-shirts. Please send your reflections to Virginia Linn at vlinn@post-gazette.com. Include your name, home town and daytime phone number.
I received this in an email from the folks at VisitPittsburgh. It is pretty cool that Pittsburgh ranked 3rd in AmericanStyle Magazines top Arts Cities.
Help Pittsburgh Be Recognized as TOPS IN THE ARTS!
Think Pittsburgh is a contender in the world of art? VisitPittsburgh thinks so and AmericanStyle magazine wants to hear from you.
The monthly arts magazine has opened its official balloting process to identify the Top 25 Arts Cities in the United States . In 2006, Pittsburgh ranked third in the magazine’s 9th annual Top 25 Arts Destinations Readers’ Poll. (Pittsburgh has appeared four times since the poll’s inception.)
If you agree that Pittsburgh is indeed among the Top 25 Arts Destinations (this year listed by market size-Pittsburgh is in the mid-tier group), we encourage you to go to www.AmericanStyle.com and cast your vote by clicking to the right side of the home page on the red, white and blue TOP 25 ARTS DESTINATIONS.
You can choose additional markets too but, remember, a vote for them works against your vote for Pittsburgh !
Be prepared to state why you think Pittsburgh is a top arts destination.
Hurry! All Ballots received now will be entered to win a $500 airline travel certificate from AmericanStyle.
Forward this to your friends and family and help recognize Pittsburgh as Tops in the Arts!
