A better idea would have been to use some sort of array and reference the headline by number. This way, if you get an Array Out of Bounds exception, you can display an Error page, and people can't go in and make funnies with your site.
Wow - posted this response to the wrong subject. Oh well - digg down as expected.This shirt is not for sale BY cnn - just follow the links. I am glad to see CNN has not joined Obama's whiner brigade about that 'thinking outside the box' debate ABC hosted. It's even more hilarious now that Obama has chosen to end all debating - given the poor performance in that arena when asked to speak off the cuff. For the first time in any public comment he's given - he didn't sound rehearsed. Seeing them both stumble about for words was refreshing.
I didn't like the debate either, but managed to get that point across many times without using the "F" word. Please use a little more intelligence when posting - I have children who read this page and I sure don't want them talking in gutter language.

By the way, you can edit the URL to say anything that you want the shirt to say

They fixed it. Editing the URL doesn't work anymore. Damnit!

Just because you can't edit the URL yourself doesn't mean CNN won't post any more bone-headed headline-shirt combinations...<a class="user" href="http://i25.tinypic.com/rroxuo.jpg">http://i25.tinypic.com/rroxuo.jpg</a>
