Dusting My Brain: Fourth Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon

September 23, 2005

Fourth Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon

Ladies and gents, get your boobies ready! The fourth annual Blogger Boobie-Thon for breast cancer research and (this year) Hurricane Katrina victim relief returns October 1. Founded by Florida blogger Robyn Pollman (http://www.shutterblog.com) in 2002, the Blogger Boobie-Thon has since grown into something much bigger... as boobies often do when they mature. Female and male bloggers alike submit photographs of their breasts, both bare and covered, for the cause. The covered (yet sexy) breasts are featured on a free, public, possibly-not-work-safe area of the site. However, if viewers would like to see the BARE breasts, they must first donate at least $50 to the Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, then submit a copy of their e-receipt (with sensitive information taken out, of course) to the coordinators of the Boobie-Thon. They will then be sent a secret URL with a login and password to the "pay-per-boob" site.

The charities for this year are the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and the American Red Cross. The event begins at midnight on Saturday, October 1, 2005 up to 11:59 p.m. EDT on Saturday, October 8, 2005. More information forthcoming at shutterblog.com Information from last year's event can be found here. Visit the Boobie-Thon submissions page for information about submitting your photos.

I hate to ask the obvious -- but when can we expect a Squip entry?

I love that site, but I've never donated to see more. I usually just donate to the walk-a-thon.
