It's that time again- time to guess my t-cell count for the chance to win a fabulous prize! So what is the prize this time around? It's a shirt of your choosing. You can select a Synthetic Division t-shirt (featuring the incredible artwork of late, great artist Barton Benes) or a safe sex shirt. Check them both out below.
Former champ Charles Oliff models a Screw Smarter t-shirt. Sharanya models the Synthetic Division t-shirt!
Feeling lucky? Then take a guess for a chance to win! Post your guess on my Poz blog Comments section- see the official rules below. Good luck!
Positively Yours,
Shawn

589 for the win!
620, as usual. I'll be sporting that sirt all over Warsaw!!!
580. no whammies!
My guess is... 498!

I just doubled my current count, because I'm pretty sure your count is twinning. Thus, 584, big money, big money.

I'm going with 567 again this time. It just feels right. :)
625
583 is my guess, but I hope you hit 640!! Can't wait to wear my screw smarter t-shirt to work:)
675
I'm going with 512 this time around.
I'll shoot for 612.
521 all day every day. Tie breaker: your pregnancy test= negative.
579
615 all the way!
562
Doubling down and going with 515 again.
560!
552, dawg. (Which is, coincidentally, the same number of times we defended our doubles tennis title without ever being defeated.)
602 and I want the Synthetic T in Medium.
I'm sticking with my steady 617. :)
535, why the hell not
535, why the hell not
588
I guess 612 mm3. I hope its even higher.
623
666 Just for the Hell of it.
Paul Kidd did this same contest on his website in the late '90s (fortunately, he's still around but I think the website is gone). First guy to make me laugh at this diagnosis - He gave away t-shirts too! I wish I had won one of them.
I remember off his site seeing an Intel-like logo with "HIV Inside!"..and "Do I swallow? You Bet! 273,714 (some ridiculous number) pills and still going!"..he was brash, crass..and die-hard humorous at a time when most of us would be crying.
Thanks for the memory flash! For your count...I'll guess 615?
