Che can now live on through a lock of his hair and some related items displayed in Bill Butler's store Butler & Sons Books. The lock and treasures were sold for a capitalistic sum of $119,500 (52,000 pounds). Lovely, no?

Revolution and Anarchy for Sale.

Sadly this is not surprising.

Old Navy has cashed in on the revolution too?

No, Old Navy didn't cash in, but wearing a Che shirt is popular.

But I'm still not going to go around punching people in the stomach for wearing a t-shirt. That's just silly.

To be honest I feel sorry for Che because I'm sure he wouldn't want to have someone selling a million t-shirts with his face on them for profit that doesn't really benifit anyone.

Silly of course!

Wouldn't you agree though that wearing a Che T and not even knowing the definitive meaning behind what such a statement should hold or who the man even was or what he represented is beyond pathetic.

No. I like wearing things for fashion. If somebody is wearing a Che t-shirt because it's fashionable, oh well.

The pathetic thing is the fact that it becomes fashionable to begin with.

Sweet. If only Hot Topic were fashionable.

If they sold Che shirts at H&M I'd own one.

I'll agree there.
