If you’re a George Carlin fan, then you’re familar with his 7 Words you can’t say on TV skit. It’s one of the funniest of all time. Manik Skateboards just put out a limited edition George Carlin “7 Last Words” Tee to pay homage to a great comedian. I just happen to get mine in the mail yesterday and am excited to wear it. The t-shirt features a B/W portrait on the front with 7 Last Words printed in red. On the back of the shirt, you have the list of all 7 words printed in a neutral color. You can check with your local skate shop to pick up your own, or contact Manik .

By-the-way, if you haven’t checked out Manik yet, then you need to. They’re putting out some awesome stuff. Demand Manik at your local shop.
