Help Save the Boobies

For a few moments, I’m going to turn my attention away from affiliate marketing and towards something I find just as interesting and certainly more important.

The people who know me the best know that two of the things I appreciate most in this world are boobies. There, I said it.

I want to encourage you to do what you can to help save the boobies.

On a more serious note, most people know someone who’s life was tragically impacted by breast cancer. This is your chance to help promote the 7th Annual Blogger Boobie-Thon to raise funds for breast cancer research and to show your appreciation for boobies everywhere.

This fundraising drive ends at midnight on October 7, 2008, and they have a goal of raising $10,000. With one day left, they need to raise about $2,000 more to reach their goal.

Please do what you can to help.

    2. Very nice, John. My wife’s mother passed away from breast cancer, and other members of the family have had breast cancer. I always give something, and it’s always nice seeing someone else highlighting it.

    3. Hi Mitch,

    I know this is a serious subject and that breast cancer has hurt or killed millions of women, and some men.

    I like how the Boobie-Thon takes a light-hearted approach to raising money for finding a cure for a serious problem.

    The last I heard, they’d raised about $9,300, the most they’ve ever raised in their annual fundraising drive.

    I’d like to mention that just because the Boobie-Thon is over, anyone who finds their way to this page can always donate to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

    Act on your dream!

    4. I actually had my own brief scare back in 1997, as I had a lump. Mine was painful, and it had to be excised, but it wasn’t cancerous. Still, it makes you think.
