OK, have I ever asked any of you (except maybe Chuck) for anything?
No.
And now I've asked you for something and not even something for me personally. Something that will benefit thousands of women and in turn their families and friends.
And have you come through?
With the exception of my close personal friends, the Treppenwitz', I'll have to say no.
Have I said how disappointed I am? Well I'm really disappointed.
And did I offer incentive? Yes.
For a measly $100 contribution you will get your very own boobie pic to use as you see fit--wallpaper, marital aid, whatever. And I realize that $100 is a lot for many of you, but hey, $5.00? You spend that at the Evil Empire daily.
Here's the deal....I'm $225 short of the halfway point of my goal of $2000 for the Avon Breast Cancer Walk. I would like very much to reach that goal by this weekend.
So I'll make this easy for you. So you don't have to even bother to look over to the right side of the page, click right here:
Donate to my walk. Please!!!!!
Remember, you get a starring place in the Boobie Hall of Fame, and a fabulous icon to put on your page to let everyone know you're a giver.
And as a new and improved incentive, I will put the URL of every person who donates on m official walk t-shirt so your blog will get tons of free advertising, courtesy of me!
Please and thank you.
Posted by beth at May 4, 2005 11:41 PMA word to the wise, people: I've seen Beth's boobies; they're well worth the $100 to get a picture of them.
(And if price is a concern, keep in mind that you're really only paying $50 per boobie. Such a deal!)
Posted by: Chuck at May 5, 2005 05:23 AMI'd rather see the whole menu. What u get for $5.00 and what u get for $500.00. Call me crazy I'm just a good shopper.
Posted by: That Dude from Philly at May 5, 2005 09:29 AMAs soon as I get my bank account up again (crazy stuff, don't ask) I am donating, but it won't be until my next payday. I hope that won't be too late.
Had I $100 to give I would (and I wouldn't even need the boobie picture), but I think I can donate $10 next week.
Posted by: Carol at May 5, 2005 10:44 AMTo avoid complications with the Mrs. I elected to keep my donation below the 'boobie threshhold'. However, if you wanted to send me a snap of your elbow, or perhaps a well-turned ankle, I don't think I'll get smacked in the head with anything too heavy.
Posted by: David at May 5, 2005 01:54 PMHoney,
Thank you.
Carol,
Thanks to you too.
Dude from Philly,
I guess we've already established what I am and now are just haggling over price. You kick down $500 and we'll discuss.
David,
Yes, I noted you were just below the threshold and we actually had a bit of a laugh about it. I'll look into something more wifely approving for you.

Posted by: beth at May 5, 2005 05:20 PMAt last, we pull ourselves to donate towards your macho chick efforts and in honor of our friend Lisa Martz, who died in 2003 at the age of 39.
Lisa was Molly's soccer coach and Girl Scout Leader for three years. We loved her dearly and will never recover completely from losing her.
Beth, to you I say:
Are you ready boots?
START WALKIN.
